It like the logo up top left of that page, and they are all terrible. You might not see them at your stakes, I dunno.


BTW, just looked at your table on stars...holy lagtard batman.

5/18/2008 8:48:17 PM

Yeah, I think it actually timed out a few times when I was multi tabling since I forgot about it since everyone is taking forever.

5/18/2008 8:52:39 PM

they play on the freerolls too.

5/18/2008 8:53:34 PM

Do you play the 100+R, David?

Hear it's juicy...just wayy out of my roll.

No, the only rebuy I play is the $50 one rebuy one add-on I posted last week.

I think Turner actually won it last week or the week before that.

5/18/2008 9:02:45 PM

Yeh he is always on the leaderboard when I look it seems.

5/18/2008 9:05:23 PM

KJ off, ouch

5/18/2008 9:07:00 PM

that was even better b/c it was camby

5/18/2008 9:22:02 PM

sigh

5/18/2008 9:33:08 PM

Eugh, so I uninstalled FT then reinstalled but still works like crap on my desktop. Works fine on my laptop. Any ideas?

5/18/2008 10:01:37 PM

No idea.

5/18/2008 10:53:55 PM

I just wanna play David heads up.

$1000/$2000 NL

Just playing.

How did you do this weekend David...you play any tournaments.

Finished 8th and 17th in a couple....final table bubbles again.

5/19/2008 10:50:16 AM

I got to the 2nd to last table in the $50 rebuy again but that was it. Had a mini cash in the ft mulligan but was still down for the day.

5/19/2008 11:01:31 AM

Yeah sucks man.

I know the feeling. I busted 8th yesterday in the $10,000k rebuy.

1010< K3 flop Q83 I bet half my stack...villian tanks. then pushes. I call. he flips over K3 and I am so happy. 3 on the river.

GG me...such a bad play.

I need to build up the roll some more.
Do you play a bunch of SNGs or are you more MTT fixated. I just don't konw if i could grind SNGs even though i kNow iwould be highly successful

sometimes my pa hud will kill my ftp. i usually just restart the comp and it works fine. maybe thats it?

5/19/2008 11:53:49 AM

I'm not running it and I already restarted.

5/19/2008 12:51:52 PM

is it just me or do PT3 imports take FOREVER

5/19/2008 2:18:23 PM

Yeh the PT3 imports take a long time for me too. For the PT3 PAHUD does your stat box randomly disappear, but leave everyone elses? Happens to me a lot....

Didn't sound like a bad play; sounded like what's been happening to me anytime I try to win money. Doesn't matter the odds at all, if you're playing me and I'm helpless on the fucking river, you WILL suck out. I'm waiting for the day I have quads busted by something in that situation...

5/19/2008 4:06:05 PM

What casino has the nicest poker tournies...cheap ones...?

Going to vegas in the morning..

5/20/2008 1:06:32 PM

I think Mandalay Bay had a cheap one the first time I went there.

5/20/2008 1:17:17 PM

Apparently the Wynn has the best tournies, not sure about cheap though

5/20/2008 2:09:55 PM

Agreed.

5/20/2008 2:32:05 PM

http://www.allvegaspoker.com/tournaments.php

I've been looking here just trying to figure it out, because i'd prefer not to play too much 1/2 or 2/5.

It does look like Mandalay has 2 ones I might be interested, theres also some at the Tropicana and Treasure Island that look good. Some just seem to have really shady structuring.

5/20/2008 2:59:06 PM

Cool site. Are you just going to play tourneys?

5/20/2008 3:01:13 PM

Yeh, I might hit up a cash game if it looks like i'll have some down time. I get there at 1015 tomorrow, so i'll try to make a noon tourny...and then who knows from there...

Also just found this thread:
http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showthread.php?t=698

Sounds like the Saraha one is nice...might try that at 7 tomorrow night.

fuck, you are leaving early

5/20/2008 3:14:18 PM

6 am RDU to Charlotte then like 830 or something CLT to Vegas.

5/20/2008 3:16:28 PM

Uhhh, you forgetting time zones?

5/20/2008 3:17:46 PM

Nah leave CLT at 830 and arrive in Vegas at 1015 there time. So it's like a 4-5 hour flight and then the time diff.

5/20/2008 3:18:27 PM

Gotcha. I've never played tourneys in Vegas. Just didn't want to monopolize so much time for possibly nothing. I think I'll check them out though next time I'm there.

5/20/2008 3:20:20 PM

5/20/2008 3:58:34 PM

Well, you got the hard part out of the way which is getting a reasonable amount to play with. Good luck! What is your screen name on tilt?

5/20/2008 4:16:21 PM

im under Ill Hellmuth for this

5/20/2008 4:22:56 PM

in toronto for work and played some 1/2 last night at casino niagra. Canadians are horrible! I turned $100 into $600 in a couple hours just playing good hands

5/20/2008 9:18:50 PM

how much did you prop bet?


oh and ftr it's very very doable.

5/20/2008 9:22:12 PM

Anyone here familiar with the Bodog Debit Card? They just offered one to me, and I am very intrigued. I used to love playing over there until payouts became impossible.

5/20/2008 9:22:21 PM

I have been in full fledged BEAST mode for the last 36 hours, you do not wanna flip a coin with me right now. 7k hands for $1700 by the end of tuesday is a pretty good start to the week. Nonstop ass-rape for everyone else at the 200NL tables will begin again thursday afternoon, I need a day off.







If I can pull like 1 BB/100 for the rest of this month, it'll be my biggest evar

5/21/2008 2:18:07 AM

If anyone is on oddsmaker send me a PM.

5/21/2008 9:37:57 AM

Nice, NoidRoid. BTW not in Vegas

Flight filled up last night (flying space available, dad is airline employee).

Shit sucks.

[Edited on May 21, 2008 at 12:58 PM. Reason : .]

5/21/2008 12:57:05 PM

And the shitty thing is...the full flight was RDU to CLT.

I should of drove my ass to CLT early this morning lol

5/21/2008 1:00:03 PM

That does suck. At least you didn't get stuck in CLT.

5/21/2008 1:24:31 PM

Haha yeh I guess thats true, all the flights today and tomorrow are slam packed and I doubt it's gonna be much better til after this big weekend.

Maybe first week of June i'll try again.

5/21/2008 1:32:59 PM

What about your hotel and stuff?

5/21/2008 1:40:22 PM

Well I planned to book the hotel in the down time in CLT on hotels.com, so no loss there.
