Just started playing .01/.02 and I had a couple of questions.
A. What is the best poker tracker software that is free?
B. What is an average number of tables to be playing at once? Currently 4 tabling could add more but monitor is small.
Anyone wanna go half with me on a $100 pool? Its a pool on 2+2, will be 50 each you can just transfer to me. I'll pick everything. I have won my pool last 3 years and picked winner each year. Dont feel like spending 100 but I will if no1 wants in. Payouts are 65/35 and i think theres maybe 15 people so far so should get to 1k for first.
Dominican republic 25 yr old after having sex with me asks if I want her to be my girlfriend. And she is fucking fine. Shes like I like to cook, go to gym. No girl ever asks to be my girlfriend. She say she has a baby though a 2.5 yr old girl. in 5-20 years she'll lose her looks. I think it smarter to go after 18 yr olds than 25 yr olds especially when they are both careerless.
I am definitely getting old when I get excited about going to sleep. After working very hard, and losing an hour of sleep over the weekend, I was legitimately fired-up that I was going to be in bed by 7pm last night. Well, at noon a friend called me up and asked me if I wanted to go the the Celtics-Pistons game, and insta-refused, because of my-old man bedtime. He says "OK", and hangs up, then immediately texts me "don't want to say this out loud at the office, but these are courtside tickets".
Hmmm, that changes things.
I've never sat actually on the court. I've been ~4 rows back twice, and have found that basketball is infinitely more fun the closer you get, plus these seats are well over 1k each per game, so it's tough to say no.
I went, and was not disappointed. It was a blow-out, but it was a blast because, well, you actually get to talk to the players. I was still a little wide-eyed about it, but my friends were making full use of the occasion, and were jawing back and forth with members of both teams. It was a completely different experience than even just being a row back, tons of fun, and definitely something I would buy if I could afford the 60k per year or whatever it is for each seat. Apparently we were on TV a bunch, but in the highlights I could only see my back, and well I know what I look like so I don't care to look harder.
So I had some liquid assets to jumpstart my poker career past the micro stakes. I diverted some of this towards live play and ended breakeven after 3 weeks before I got rattled from a series of losing sessions breaking my confidence. I havent played since, which really sucks because I am too competitive of a player to let something like that get to me. It was just the monetary loss. The money finally meant something to me at NL200 so losing $1000 in one night was like "holy fuck".
Then, out of nowhere, I suddenly got the urge to buy a new car. Why you ask? Well a little dealer hustling, plus a lot of greed. I went to have my car serviced and decided to look at some new rides for my wife. I drive an 07 Altima which I bought brand new from the lot back in 07, and while searching for a car for her, I suddenly fell in love with a fully loaded version of what I currently drive. I was able to trade in my current car for the fully loaded 2010 model without it changing my payments at all, other than restarting them.
So I just bought a brand new 2010 Nissan Altima 2.5SL with leather heated + power seats, wood trim finish, 7" GPS nav system with DVD playback, bluetooth phone and streaming mp3, xm satellite, and all the other good shit that comes with a new car. Of course I couldnt go to the dealership and buy myself a brand new car and leave my poor wife still struggling with her piece of shit 10 year old saturn with leaking sunroof, mildew stank interior, sunbaked paintjob, and blown out stereo speakers. That would just be wrong.
So I bought her one too. Not quite as good as mine. But I bought her a 2010 Nissan Sentra, which is basically like a mini version of the altima, which is perfect for her, as she would look kinda funny driving a car as big as mine. It's not fully loaded, but it's mostly there. Bluetooth phone/mp3, ipod docking station, sunroof, no gps or anything fancy like that. But the electronics are well equipped. Cant even remember if it has leather lol, but probably not. It's a nice little car. She always wanted one in Teal, but unfortunately all they had was greyish silver. Hope she likes it, she hasnt even seen it yet lol. But I know my wife, and she'll absolutely love it, save for the less than stellar car color, which AINT ALL THAT BAD. I mean fuck, I kinda like smoke grey myself, but it's just not that femmy.
I was kinda feeling guilty about utilizing such a large part of my funds to just play poker with, at least with the potential for failure. I'd never get over myself for sinking 8 grand into poker and having nothing to show for it, especially when my loved ones need things, like a new car.
So where does this leave me? Well, since I took poker money and "cashed it out", ala "imaginary cashout", I still have some left to play poker with. I'm going to contact f4zi and get some HU training, but I dont really want to discuss that in case I turn out to be a huge embarrassment and waste of his time. Yea thats right, I respect the man so much that I would feel like i wasted *his* time paying him money to coach a loser. We'll see though.
Decided to play some PLO50 HU after gettin crushed in hold em tonight. Sit down at a random table and start a lil HU battle. After about 5 hands im thinking, wow this is gonna be easy this guy dont seem very good (too early to tell right?) Wrong. I check his PTR.
I take 3 buyins from him that included baffling hands like this:

After a while he quits. I get a new table. New guy has only 12k hands at PLO50 HU but hes winning at 13 ptbb according to PTR. I have no idea how, cuz he was pretty weak. Huge calling station always trying to trap, constantly checking and folding and more checking followed by more calling. Rarely ever 3b pf. If he donks out on the flop its the nizzles. Anytime he raises its the nizzles. Also, if he has AAxx and flop is AJ3 and he pots. If turn brings ANY possible str8, he gets scared and checks. Anyway, we get in one big pot which i win. He says NH. I say i got lucky (i got the money in ahead but was lucky to get there before that). He says no he played the turn bad. I say "true"
We get to talkin more, I ask him if he saw the games on FT yesterday. And convo goes like this (from memory)
Him: How did ilari do?
Me: Got crushed early made a comeback
Him: Cool. Hes a friend of mine.
Me: Shut ur face
Him: Seriously (this kid is from Helsinki)
Me: Face, shut it, liar
Him: He was here at my house for 10 days almost 2 weeks ago. he won 2 mill while here.
Me: Starting to believe....
Anyway he went on to explain they are friends and have many other mutual friends. Said he got him back into poker, specifically PLO. He also said its very hard playing 50PLO while watching zigg play 300/600 lol. he said he got to watch him play and even played a few hands. Also said zigg is not that crazy postflop but he plays very risky preflop. I dk, i actually believe the kid.

sup ppl, I want to know from those who play at Heypoker what are the minimum pc specs that I need for multi-tabling here without problems.
I tried it out on my old pc and I could even open 2 tables without having a lot of lag... what specs do you have on your machine while running smoothly? thx
The Pacific aka Band of Brothers 2. Is finally here. The first episode aired last night on HBO and it was really good. If anyone on LP likes these kind of series this one is a must watch. It will probably be the best thing on television this year.
