I had dual monitors and HEM isolated to monitor #2. I removed a monitor and now have 1 monitor, and HEM keeps vanishing off to the fucking side acting like theres a 2nd monitor. Anybody know how to fix this shit? I cant click a fucking thing.
What's up all, this month was ez breezy, didn't play that much due to being a slave to my government(Marine Corps) but this month was successful non-the-less. I love FTP but more specifically RUSH. Myself and a buddy(Syntax on LP) started studying poker in more depth and are learning a ton. You learn exponentially faster with somebody at your skill set or better watching you play/talking about hands that go on. It's probably the most +EV thing a Online poker player can do, besides invest in PT3/HEM
Just reaffirming the fact that NL25 is impossible. Down 8 BI, 3 BI under EV.
Playing a solid game but I just keep running into coolers and suckouts. Had 2 green sessions before today but seem to be suddenly doomswitched. Every time I got my stack in, the pot went the other direction.
List check:
Ran KK into AA x4
AKs vs AA x1
AKs vs QQ x1
Set beaten by Overset postflop x2
Various payoffs with overpair/sets canceling out with shorties hitting flushes on river.
Back down to NL10 to regrind enough to get back up.

playing at ftp and 2 eurodonk sites. i seem to be running "normal" there.
stars is just so fucking rigged lately, below ev is the normal session and if i run above ev for jst a fcuking day, u can be sure the next session or two will totally obliterate any kind of profit made and if i tilt , could even lose more than what i heatered. its been almost a year now and ive had it with the patience and the mindfuck of this site,also i see these new regs who are terrible at the game but make a lot of money hitting shit and getting action nonstop, while in my case i miss a bet or deviate from my usual tight game and i get freerolled for a 1 or two outer it's just so fucking sick already! been getting coaching but it seems that it's only good for breaking even still, so fuck that. good luck to all regs coz you just lost one patient fish in that god forsaken site. goodbye stars. fuck vpps. out.
still gonna continue trying to improve but never playing this shit again. really bad for my confidence.
Bizzy's verse at the beginning is so sick my shit is all explodey. If you aren't ready for it, it makes pac'ss slow delivery following it seem lame at first glance. Rest of the song is really good tho, including pac's parts.
So I stopped playing for the last year due to uni commitments but after the grad medical admissions exam on March 21 I've had heaps more free time on my hands so I started grinding out 10/25NL. I started poker playing nothing but SNGs and used to have a decent win-rate back in the day but I always told myself it wasn't 'real' poker. For some reason I came to poker with the mindset that cash games are 'real' poker becaue the money is right there on the table.
Anyways I dropped a heap of money playing 6-max on stars and ftp and decided to play a few SnGs just for fun. Went back to my old 5+5.50s and decided to also try out the $3.50 MTTs people have been talking about a lot. Long story short, 1st and 6th in the MTTs and ~40% ROI over the 21 STTs I play last night. Uni has killed any micro I had so I'm maining 4-tabling and just playing spots as I can.
I could really use some advice on STT ROI % I should be getting at these stakes and if anyone wants to throw me an AHK script for FTP so I don't have to click I'd appreciate it.
edit: cool update with the scammer thing tho. Finally get my ftp account unfrozen after so long. Looks like i'll get off with a warning (rightfully so) but apparently they'll bone me hard if I get involved with another scammer.
