sunflower seeds are definatley +ev. However dont but the pre shucked ones. you eat way too many too quick, and the seeds are only good in moderation. It is a small learning curve to be able to throw a bunch in your mouth, and crack them one by one perfectly down the middle each time.
suflower seeds are awesome until you eat too many and the salt makes that weird callousy cancery thing on your cheek.
just busted the 1k event after hour and a half, got it in with JT on a T98T board and didnt improve v AT
lost a 7500 pot yesterday with kk v ak AI preflop. we didnt flip cards, ace hit on river and guy slowrolled me. he left after the very next hand god damn son of a bitch.
What is slowrolling in this situation?
Un- BOC!!!
B.J. Penn will be at my gym on Sept. 21. I am going to Yuma, AZ on Sept. 8. I will be there for two months as support. Yay!
flipping up his winning hand real slow like when he (most likely) knows he won.Quote:

The funny thing is that most of them aren't even good (I don't want to make a blanket statement because some of them really are good). But for the most part all they know how to do is re-shove over the top of every single late position raise, and then act shocked if you call them with less than a premium hand.
Here's a re-enactment of what happened today.

The really funny thing is that the next time I play against this player, he probably won't adjust his play against me at all even if he thinks I'm a calling station donkey now.

So it was one drunk naked hooters girl getting a bath by a bunch of other hooters girls almost naked. was pretty sweet. Same drunk naked girl passed out in my bed, me and gf were like wtf no she didnt and just pushed he to the end of the bed. She woke up this morning and was like "OMG what happened" and i just winked at her and she left really fast. Was very funny.

off-topic, computer question/ideas post:
for those that remember my computer setup, I have an XPS 400 with a dell 30 incher in front, and a samsung 16x12 20" in portrait mode next to it on the left. cool, unnecessary, etc. i agree. but getting old.
thought #1 another 20" samsung is being shipped from stars although its been a while so i could just buy another if necessary. obviously i would put this on the right of the 30 incher, so the setup would go 20-30-20. this poses a couple problems, the main 2 being: 1) i'm not even sure if my computer can support it. what this entails i do not know. my video card has 2 slots and each respective monitor is using one. obviously i would need to add another video card but i'm not sure if my computer/motherboard will support both. helpppppp!!!! oh yeah that brings me to my next point: i don't even know how to install a video card.
main concern: whether or not this is even computerically (for lack of a better term) possible.
thought #2 (!): i want to get a laptop so this is somewhat independent of #1 but somewhat related as well. the laptop will be used for a variety of purposes, nothing overly important. i'd like to take it on trips, use it in the other room on the recliner for when i'm feeling lazy, emergency situations (power or internet outages, have to stay somewhere else for a while, etc), and to complement my main system. i'm somewhat greedy so i want a laptop, probably a 17" display running 1920x1200. people say this is too big, but i don't know. one of my bigger concerns actually isn't lack of portability, but whether or not plunking down a 10 pound laptop on my lap for many hours will be uncomfortable. anyway the kind of stuff i'd like to be able to run include multiple IE/firefox windows, AIM, music, poker clients, trading clients, etc.
oh yeah, the system part. if i can't get the other 20 incher setup as described above, i'm thining of just getting a couple extension cables and putting the 20 incher on the main system on the right of the 30, and plopping the laptop down on the left. in that case i'd probably keep all my AIM/music/recreation stuff on the laptop and more work-oriented stuff on the big screens, for a variety of reasons.
main concern: whether or not a laptop with a 17" screen that ways ~10 pounds with accessories is going to be overkill for what i'm going to use it for.
thoughts please, $20 on stars or ftp for any answer i'm overly impressed with
btw #1 on the laptop choice would probably be the dell inspiron 1720.
was thinking of a macbook pro but i really don't want to drop 3k+ on a notebook. although i wouldn't rule it out.
macbooks are vvv nice my buddy just got one, but i agree with you lukie, ive had 3 laptops stolen now and i would never spend 3k on one.Quote:

i think it would be ignorant to not think its going on in these tourneys too. The only reason its been outed in the higher buyin tourneys is because of the "big name" pros getting caught. I can guarantee its happening in all levels, with it being weighted exponentially towards the higher buyins.Quote:

Bode,
At the level I play, there are enough tourneys going on between Stars and FT at any given time that multi-accounting would be pointless. With respect to people staking average players and purchasing their chip stacks when they get down to the final three tables, this could be more of a concern in the donkaments that I play. But I doubt my EV is significantly affected by cheaters.
The people who are really good at cheating focus their efforts on the really big events, for obvious reasons.
As a side note I think the whole pocket fives culture of donkament "celebrities" is really stupid. If I ever get to the point where I'm crushing the highest stakes donkaments online, I'll still keep a low profile and not try to get ranked or other dumb shit. No one knows my Full Tilt name (except for gabe whom I made a trade with) and I plan to keep it that way.
I find pocket5s forum completely unreadable.
Lukie, you should be able to buy a video card, if you take off the case you'll see this
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...x-AGP_slot.jpg
the brown is AGP, the white is PCI. That tells you what kind of card to use. Your AGP is probably full, but a PCI will be fine, especially since you're not gaming or anything (thus needing a powerful graphics card).
I have a 16" 1600x1200 (4 years old now) laptop. It's 8 lbs I think. I used to have it in my lap all the time, not a problem. Screen is fantastic, I love it. I run two things side by side all the time (and can 4 table with no overlap).
"Problems"
1) battery will suck. Even if you drop like $300 on an extended life you're looking at 2-3 hours. You're basically buying a portable desktop (as long as this is ok not a big problem).
2) Portability - fitting it into a back and lugging it around kind of sucks.
That being said I would never get rid of mine. Although I may buy a 2nd laptop that's light with a long battery for trips. That's either super nerdy or BOC
Lukie,
Is this what you got?
http://64-bit-computers.com/wp-content/dim_9200.jpg
If so, its a Dell Dimension 9200, and should have this motherboard:
http://64-bit-computers.com/wp-content/ga_965p_ds3.jpg
There are several important expansion slots on there that look like this:
http://img.fj007.com/news/2006/7/200676160872767.jpg
These are labeled:
PCI- 3 slots
PCIe x1- 1 slot
PCIe x16 (graphics)- 1 slot
PCIe x4/x8- 1 slot
The skinny? Purchase a separate video card for the third monitor. Ensure that it is compatible for the slot that you wish to place it in. I would suggest PCIe x1, but no higher than PCIe x4/x8. You don't need to use the x16 because you don't play any hardcore games or anything like that. Then just plug the card into the appropriate slot. Load the drivers, and let the magic happen.
To enable the third display, just go to Control Panel -> Display and then the settings tab. You’ll see 3 displays like this:
The primary display is the one with the big '1' on the screen. The secondary display has a '2' on the screen, and the third has a '3'. The dashed lines around the third display mean that it is not currently enabled. To enable it, first click on that display (or select it from the Display dropdown), set the screen resolution and color quality/depth to what works best, and then select “Extend my Windows desktop onto this monitor.” The screens will flash off and on, and then both screens will be enabled.
Each monitor has its own properties section that you can view by double-clicking that monitor.
Now, you can move the third monitor to any orientation you would like to the primary monitor. Just click and drag monitor 3 in Display properties. In general, you want the orientation in Display properties to match your monitor setup in the real world so you can just move the mouse where it needs to go, and it will move there.

Baller: I submitted a question to Washington Post Live and they read it along with my name on TV and answered it.
Variance: I'm probably the only DC United fan that has ever watched the show, so no one else submits questions about them.
