Trying to start online again (US), suggestion?by NoobSaibot, May 28
Hi everyone. Been a lurker here at liquidpoker for a few years now and looking to start playing online again. I am a US player that was active on FTP playing NL25/NL50 before Black Friday. After Black Friday, I took a break and then took up Hero Poker as strictly a hobby playing NL10 for a couple months until they closed. Since then, I've graduated college and have a solid job. What are the best sites to play at for US residents? My main concern would be ease of withdrawing money and bonuses/promotions rather than the poker client itself.
Decided to at last after many years actually move to pokerstars ( yeah i've never deposited there only played like 2-3 sunday millys + a dozen of small tournaments before) however I really dont understand the FPP/VPP system and how their "rakeback" works. Can anyone give me some graph or something like that which explains it
Hey,
i'm looking for someone to stake me for some small buy-in tourneys. I'm looking at the 2+2 stake forum, since it seems most logical place to be looking.
But i much rather work with people within (or through) the LP community.
Had a few nice wins in April, which got me a BR going. Problem with that is that i ended up cashing out a too large amount, with few cash games spews and playing higher buyins tourneys got me busto in less then 2 months. i like MTT's, i like playing for 10h+, and wanna go right back to it.
Never done this before, so any suggestions and comments, LP style, would be appreciated.
Cheers.
Okay guys, I just got home late from work and I really wanna play this now, even though it's late registration.
Anybody wants to buy 70% of the 109$ (76,3$) quickly? I know this probably won't work cause nobody knows me, but it might work with 1:1 markup? It's probably an EV+ event, even for me I guess... So here some stats from last 2 weeks 3,50$ HU sng
Zane Lamprey - host of Three Sheets and Drinking Made Easy
Ended up tossing 175 at the project - because if you watch one episode you'll see why this should be backed.
It will be more like Three Sheets which is the better of the two shows (imo)
Anyways there ya go - I think you should check out his past stuff (drinking made easy as well as three sheets), play the drinking game ot the shows, and finally sponsor his next project "CHUG"
The poker-playing millionaire also dropped a clean $517,000 on a diamond and gold necklace - presumably for his blonde bombshell wife, actress Anna Vishnevskaya - at the auction, which raised $32.3 million overall.
has anyone here played facebook poker? I hear you can play for actual money which would be absolutely awesome since living in America makes it kinda difficult 2 play
questions I have about facebook poker
is there public games? or can you only play with people that you're friends with
whats the amount of money you can play for?
can you actually cash out?is there rake? Who runs this? Facebook?
I think it'll be HUGE for Soccer in the states here.
Also the fact that Beckham wants to purchase a team.
Living in MN it's also very interesting since the new Vikings Football stadium is being built and the owner of the vikings has exclusive rights to an MLS expansion team. (which I hope they buy MN United FC and not start a brand new team)
So I've been playing the $1.50 hyper hu sng's on stars recently. Been making steadily making a small profit over about 30 of them. I'm just wondering if anyone could give me some tips and advice for playing the micro stakes hyper hu sng's. Also I think the rake is kind of high? So I should be looking to move up asap no?
As someone who works 80+ hours a week regularly where there's a direct correlation to progress and success based on the level at which I'm able to maintain concentration and get things done I'm looking to optimize brain use.
Proposed:
-Exercise a few times a week and on all days when not taking any other substances
-Caffeine no more than once every 3 days (the half-life is about 5.5 hours, and not looking for any dependence or withdrawal symptoms)
-Modafinil no more than once every 3 days (the half-life is 12 hours, but no dependence, just looking for full effect when taking it so want a full day without it in my system)
-Nicotine. Psychologically I feel like it's better to just limit usage to one day every few to ward off addiction, but because the half-life (2 hours) is so short and it could be taken multiple times that day it could still be troublesome. This is the one I'm most worried about because of addictive properties and withdrawal symptops when addicted. If the negatives outweigh the positive or I do get addicted, I'll have to cut it out.
-A nootropic supplement every day (currently Focus Formula)
So over first two weeks it would look like
Day 1: 30 minutes aerobic exercise; 80-100mg caffeine
Day 2: 150mg modafinil
Day 3: 30 minutes aerobic exercise; 2mg nicotine
Day 4: 80-100mg caffeine
Day 5: 30 minutes aerobic exercise; 150 mg modafinil
Day 6: 2mg nicotine
Day 7: 30 minutes aerobic exercise
Day 8: 80-100mg caffeine
Day 9: 30 minutes aerobic exercise; 150 mg modafinil
Day 10: 2mg nicotine
Day 11: 30 minutes aerobic exercise; 80-100mg caffeine
Day 12: 150 mg modafinil
Day 13: 30 minutes aerobic exercise; 2mg nicotine
Day 14: 80-100mg caffeine
Day 15: 30 minutes aerobic exercise
Data:
I've been doing something very similar to what I'm proposing above for the past few weeks, so I do have a little data to go off of.
I'll keep track of everything that's easily trackable each day along with any notes I have. I have a few EEG headsets, so I'll try to capture a bunch of my brain data as well to hopefully find a bit more substantial evidence that certain drugs have higher correlations with sustained concentration.
I also keep track of my sleep and have over a year's worth of data to compare to so I can see if there are any changes there.
I eat 4-5 meals a day and will try to keep track of that as well.
I welcome any constructive feedback or other peoples' results having done similar experiments.
