hey guys I have a 25 dollar visa check card but of course it was rejected by pstars and is under the 50 dollar minimum deposit on full tilt. I was trying to download another client so I could deposit there but my MAC doesn't support any of the other USA poker rooms. Was wondering what I need to run PC programs on a MAC client. I think there are programs out there to make this happen was wondering if you guys could help?
Someone took a picture of me OMGby Fudyann, May 10
Okay so I have this eccentricity that I don't like pictures being taken of me. I punch anyone in the face that points a camera at me. Even if this person is really big, and subsequently breaks my nose. If the photographer is a girl, I might be lenient and just ignore her for the rest of my live instead of punching.
I allowed a girl I really liked and trusted to take a picture of my feet. This was, of course, incredibly naive, as this person took a picture of me in full using the zoom function. When I noticed, I asked her about it. She said "What? It's not such a bad picture. You look cute in it." I pointed out that it's not about taking the picture, it's about tricking me and that I feel like I have to be on my guard around her now. I said that if she wants to tease me by doing something to me that I hate, she should at least be honest about it. I say she should feel ashamed about tricking me. She says "Well but you would have forced me to delete it. I didn't want that." She does not feel guilty about it. She says I should just get over it.
I know it's stupid that I don't want pictures taken of me, and I probably SHOULD get over THAT. However, I really cannot hang out with someone and constantly feel like having to be on my guard. Especially not someone I like(d).
Is it okay of me to be pissed at the sneaky bitch, or should I let it go?
being 24 and still alive is a privilegeby PplusAD, May 10
Just got informed that another person i knew
and who was a classmate of me at collegue for many years died.
he died of cancer 2 weeks ago.
last thing i had contact with him was a PvP on LT for fun that we played ~ 2,5 years ago at a Lan party with friends.
some of my friends made a lan party and played BW all day ( they were all total newbs)
I was invited but originally declined. ( I knew that they were all horrible and that it would not be fun playing them in BW)
However at the evening i decided that i come over and watch them a bit while having some beers.
He was kinda the best BW player of them and so the other guys asked me if i might play him while they watch.
I did so and we played 2 showmatches of PvP on Lt that i both won easily.
That feels so strange in a way that the last thing he and me had in common was a Broodwar match.
He was very special and almost the complete opposite of me at that time
He never smoked a cigarette
he never drank alcohol
he did lots of sports
he had always A grades in collegue
he was always friendly
and now he is dead.
I feel so sorry for him.
Sick life
I am only 24 years old myself
but i could mention at least 15 people i really knew that were my age and allready died
Looking at my past how i was a drug addict and had a very unhealthy crazy youth and so had many of my friends
i am kinda used to see people at my age die.
most of the guys i knew that are dead know were drug addicts and always lived on the edge.
Some of them died due to drugs some due to accidents ( car accidents etc.)
But all of them had in common that they were very extreme people in a way or another
This guy however was totally different.
He never did anything crazy
And then he fucking dies of cancer at the age of 24 ???
Again i am really sorry for him.
I also somehow feel really thankfull that i am alive and healthy after all teh shit i ve done so far in my Life
Where ever u may be now
I wish u Friedrich Heberlein the very best from my heart.

iTunes and my iPod are fucking pissing me off .... Ever since i reinstalled my windows
my itunes "finds" the ipod and all - i mean u can eject it but here s the problem :
when i go to the music library to add some mp3s when i right click - > add to playlist the mp3 it doesnt show my iPod W T F tried reinstalling the dumb program but nothing has changed ....
Ok, i'm new here. I've been playing for the past two months. Have over 125k hands in. I'll just post my graphs. Honestly, the more i play the more frusturated i get. The one thing that really bothers me is my pots won w/o showdown. At about the 45,000th hand i moved up from 5-10 cent to 10-25 cent. I usually only play 5 tables at once b/c that's all my brain can handle. I've tried really hard to bring my pots won w/o showdown up. Everything i try seems to make it worse! One thing i've learned: People don't like to fold.
I swear when i run bad i run really bad. I'll win 10 days in a row and lose one day. The one day i lose i lose 200. While all the other days i might win 20, 40, 60, 50, ect. In the middle of April last month i was right on schedule up 500 half way through the month. Not bad at only 10-25 cent. I calculated at an hourly rate of about $7.50 i could make just over 1100 a month. I lost about 200 one day then 2 days later lost 100. I got frusturated and decided to take a few days break. Few days break turned into about a 2-3 week vacation. Now i'm back and it's like a stalemate. I win 100 one day. Lose 80 the next. Win 80 the next day lose 70 the next. Very frusturating. My hourly rate for 10-25 cent droped from about 7.50 to just a little over 3.50 It fluxuates between 3.5 and 4 dollars.
Between the dates of 2/25/09 to 4/14/09 I had 35 winning days and 9 losing days. Then since 4/15/09 the day i lost $223. At 10-25 cent that's pretty bad. Ever since that date 6 winning days and 9 losing days. So right now i'm not sure what to think. Though, 4 of the losing days out of the 9 i only played like 10-30 minutes those days. I played for about 10 minutes and lost 20 bucks right away and got pissed off and quit for the day. So, right now i'm trying to just put in the hours and let the stats speak for themself.
IS THE FUCKIN SHIT!!!! i just recently started playin BW (best game ever IMO). Since I've started playing, I can definately see how the transition from BW to poker makes a shit ton of sense. Quick question: Is there any way to find out what music gomtv plays in some of their vids??? (plz don't flame me for this lolz)
Quick edit: thank you CrownRoyal. I was first directed to gomtv through one of ur blogs. mad props
So yesterday night I had a heater session when I once again ran like Jesus on Steroids.
This morning I wake up, and guess what: DOOMSWITCH
Seriously, this was so sick. My sets were too low, King High flush is obviously only second best isn't it?
Second straight all over the place.
When I rased PF with JJ-KK and saw flop, I could be 95% sure that the overs simply WILL be there.
I lost about 18 All-ins against shorties, they just kept owning me.
And Of course, I have been rivered four times with 94% Equity, and couple times with 85%.
There were 10 minute spots where I didn't win a single pot.
And when I finally can hope I suck out someone for a change this happens:

So I got like Seriously Pissed. This is NL25, How the fuck can I be 10BI down when I am thinking about moving to NL50?
I was tilted, the cards were still not coming and when I finally went up some bb's I immediately got sucked out again.
But I didn't give up, and although my game was a lot less aggressive and I was inevitably starting to get paranoid I tried to pull myself together and think hard about all my actions despite the tilt.
But I wouldn't stop until I would be at least close to breakeven. What emerged was the longest poker day ever. Here is how it went:
This session really helped me to go through hard times after the heaters from last two weeks. Ignoring Stop Loss, I have proven to myself that I can beat these people tilted and without good cards coming.
I also got nice VPP injection and I already got 4250VPP From the 7500 I need this month to get the 80,000VPP and become supernova by the end of summer even if I will get a Full-time job and play less poker- Only 10K VPP to go if I manage the 7500 this month
The longest session of my career is dismissed, and from now on I would really prefer to RUN NORMAL, instead of the incredible heaters altered by Yellow's Syndrome, as this was really tiring.
this is stupid but im currently beating 200nl but have like zero idea how to play bvb, i think this shit has been eating a substantial part of my winrate really. please put ur thoughts on the matter and help a fellow lper out.
havent had a second session with d_zoo yet coz of scheduling problems but i hope to get one soon just so that i can ask him about bvb spots, funny coz i was playing one session and i get j10 off, villain opens button then i flat coz im on the bb, i peel flop since i have a 10, turn completes flush and i check , he checks, then river i make trips and check, he also checks and types "FOLD THAT PRE". i see who the guy is and it's d_zoo. lol
so far in the month im doing ok and seems like the breakeven stretch is over after 7k hands, been running quite decent and kinda inspired that someone who crushes these stakes is actually teaching me stuff, in effect i have super confidence when im playing 200nl FR, i dunno if im leaking hard but whatever, it's the thought that counts haha.
up like 1500 so far this month and it's sweet coz i really broke even first five days of may due to stupid extra sesssions. im really comfortable here at 200nl now so i actually made my goal materialize a couple of weeks early hope to keep getting solid coaching and running decent long enough to get to 20k before june, at the rate im going, im pretty confident i will too.
been feeling the grind since about a month ago when i decided i want to start taking poker seriously for summer as employment. not just for the money, but for the challenge. I'm not going to grab a shitty PT job for 3 months and quit it, and im not going to get any digital design work thsi summer either since every major design shop has had 3k+ resumes sent in.
To recap, i deposited 500,and i grinded it up to 2k by mid april. I went on vacation, and came back - and ever since then the last 3 weeks have been mental torture. Maybe it's the fact that i'm new to the whole serious grinding thing, but i've been in a proverbial "rut". Ive been bouncing between 1500$ - 2000$ for about 3 weeks, and my profits per day usually go like this
3 days in a row +50$ - +150~$ or so.
1 day after -250$
basically shit like that , it's super frustrating to have a string of "consistent" days, and then have it all blown away a day later. Re-checking HEM, i've noticed that alot of it was just running under expectation in ALL in pots, but i realized that was just 60-70% of my profits evaporating, the other 30% came in non all in pots where i can genuinely feel i am not playing optimally.
I've also noticed that when i lose, i ALWAYS lose 4+ BI's on those days. I have had maybe one losing day out of the 3 weeks where ive lost less than a buyin. i always lose at least 4 BI's - it's super creepy. I've noticed all those losing days also come when i haven't slept well that night or feel subconciously fatigued, but due to my "grinder" mentality i decide to play through it not making optimal decisions.
Basically i'm looking for any advice from FR grinders NL50 and up. Is stuff like this typical for you? This month i've played about 25k hand so far and I'm running about 8-9 BI's below expectation, which isn't getting me down mind you. I'm just wondering if maybe i'm approaching grinding hands the wrong way. what mindset do you guys use on nasty long breakeven stretches? how do you get over them? thanks tonnes anyone
Okay today just became stupid. I get sit out, i cant place bets. The game freezes from time to time. Already sent a mail to support but am i the only one getting this? Its some kind of packet loss or something.
