    no 3g in northern canada, or i'd be going that route already, probably.back to satellite, briefly--like, i know the basic gist of how it works, and it seems to me that the would HAVE to be a 1-2 second delay between clicking and info actually going into the tubes, yes? i mean, light only travels so fast. if that's the case, then aren't we looking at a full couple seconds at least from clicking raise to actually having things raise on ftp or whatever? that would kinda be a dealbreaker for me, methinks, which would kind of change our plans for august. some places up north run broadband lines to
  3. edit: posted basically what's already been said without reading. whoops. but yeah, i mostly agree with the greek thing.
  4. i got a 24" samsung monitor from them and it shipped right quick. the next plan is to save up for the 32gb ipod touch.i didn't know that you could sell em, but that seems like a pretty low rate, tbh.
  5. whoa, dude.also,www.themosaiccollective.com but i don't know what i just entered into.
  6. i'm already writing the love letter to BG's daughter. bitch won't be able to contain herself after i've emasculated her father.
  7. 3bet on 3rd more so that you win more pots uncontested and you can draw if you brick on 4th and have a smooth draw. playing more pots is fun.in your example, insta3b unless like all the deuces and 4s are dead on 3rd.
  8. it depends on a brazillion things:type of tournament you're talking about: how many runners, what game, structure, etc.the typical style of play in that tournament--are you going to do well playing simply solid poker or do you have to open up to get action and make moves (related to the above)?your ROIyour ITM rateassuming that you're talking about the ginormous field, low buyin ones on stars and ftp, i wouldn't play higher than 26s, and even then somewhat sparingly. personally, i use a 200bi rule and i don't even play tournaments seriously.

    Dear Ouch 8-s

    does anyone have any direct experience with satellite internet? there's a chance that i'll be moving to a place without broadband in august (northern canada), and basically i need to know whether satellite internet is adequate for full time pokering, since i won't be able to get a visa for other gainful employment up there for a while, at least.i'm fairly sure that the answer is "no, you're ****ed," but i thought i'd ask anyway.
  10. anyone have any suggestions for brands of food dehydrators? my parents gave me an amazon GC, and i literally followed that up by dreaming about getting one of these things, so i'm taking it as a sign and going with it. i also like beef jerky, a lot. excalibur seems like a good brand to get?
  11. it's not about bias as such, or even any specific news network, but just how utterly terrible media is in the US, generally. bias is just a logical step that comes right after you turn news into comic-strip-like op-ed pieces, and it's all over 99% of television and internet news.the sad part is that every time we turn it on, we tell them that what they're doing makes money, and we're all part of the problem.so is horse boy, obv.
  12. 4 tournaments. busted with an overboat twice.busted with a full house.lost a coinflip twice.all on my first all in in each tournament.lol, i don't know how you guys do it.
  13. the toilet was to my left in the TT. we played one pot together. he won a coinflip. gg me.
  14. [x] spent 5k getting in TT sattys[ ] spent more than 5k[x] got seat[x] wasted 15 minutesi'll probably play some other low stakes tardfests since it's hard for me to do cash and tourneys at the same time without playing poorly in one context. gla!d4l, pls don't die.
  15. me getting into that leotard for you was a one time thing, frank. i told you that already.
  16. if you're more concerned about value, resale value, and longterm lack of hassle, you can't really go wrong with a 1-2 year old camry or accord, imo.if you don't give a shit about value and are only concerned about lack of hassle, lease. (ick, though, imo.)if you go used, it's probably more important to go with a specific car's history than it is to go in choosing a model and searching that way.i'm not sure how important the environmental stuff is to you, but it's actually better for the environment to buy a used 30+mpg car than it is to buy a new prius as of now, at least until they get better
  17. turbo tax actually made things pretty easy for me this year, and was a lot cheaper than an accountant. i will edit this after i get audited and commit suicide.
  18. tbh it's probably better in terms of you not getting audited if you withdraw 1k over and over. it doesn't cost anything--just more of a pain, really, unless you need the 10k really quickly.
  19. in and shipped.if when i beat balloon guy, he has to make me a balloon "animal" of obama. if he should happen to luckbox a win against me, i will not make his daughter fall in love with me. fair deal, right?
  20. OMG I WAS ABOUT TO SAY BFFS 4EVER I WON 40 DOLLARS TODAY TOO BUT THEN THEN YOU SAID THAT YOU DIDN'T REALLY PLAY POKER TODAY BUT I DID SO YOU'RE NOT REALLY MY BFF 4EVER REALLY JUST MY FAKE BFF WHICH IS OK BUT NOT AS GOOD
  21. i think that "schadenfreudenisch" would be the proper german locution. i don't really have anything else to add, as i'm a skinny twat who is currently fairly drunk.oh, wait. also, i've been calling kurt ugly for years now, sometimes in person, like, verified by physical evidence. back off my bitch.
  22. "i should be the ultimate arbiter of what defines a good job and what defines a bad job, and also dislike the arts."ok, gl.a couple of those (like the homeless thing) wouldn't actually provide employment to anyone, but you do realize that people actually have to get hired to make cities prettier, people work at museums, and that roads work better when we take the time to research how they ought to be built/mapped, yes?

    Dear Ouch 8-s

    the first thing i'd do is uninstall/reinstall firefox and see if that works.
