After reading some hands that were posted. I was wondering what "ship it" means and also the difference between clean and dirty outs are.

is an exclamation made after winning a big pot



clean outs: standard outs to "make" your hand
dirty outs: outs that will make your hand but will make someone else a better hand, for example 9 completes your straight but completes villain's flush, or also higher straight
My dream... is to fly... over the rainbow... so high...

yeah, i hear it has something to do with losing money. i asked Cocco_Bill, and he said, "what? downswing? never heard of it....quit wasting my time, dillhole." he followed up with, "theres 2 BI's worth of time that i'll never get back."

j/k i dont want to put words in someone's mouth w/o clarifying my sarcasm.

really, he said, "ask euph, i hear he's half-stacking now. he should be able to tell you."

sorry, more sarcasm...i cant help myself.
LHE is a game where your skill keeps you breakeven until you hit your rush of random BS.

Nothing beats flopping quads while dropping a duece!

i feel like el tardo asking this after playing for a while, and especially when the thread has been silent for almost three months, but i'm not sure where to search for this particular bit of information

when people are describing players, and using a fraction such as 48/30 or something similar, to what precisely are they referring? i'm sure its something about their raising or calling over so many hands or something similar, but i just figure its best to ask and not be guessing

meeloche is on a distinguished road
it's using their pokertracker stats.

VPIP%/PFR% basically vpip% is % of hands played and the other is pre flop raise %.

PO=PokerOffice=poker database very much like PT

PT3 and HUD are not compatible. PT2+HUD+PT Omaha work on XP, Nor do they seem to like vista.
