did you actually have any question in your mind about that hand
why ask about that hand come on man, just say it sucks don't bother w/ the 'did I make a bad play?' bs.gl rebuilding though.I believe your thread can exsist in General.
Sorry didnt mean to seem like i was just whining or posting a bad beat. Seems like when I run into sets I always pay them off. It is sweet when they turn over a weak kicker or something here but how do you guys sniff out a set? Just instinct or is it something I can learn?

thats cool, if you got aim hit me up if you want. I like to chat/talk strat/vent/etc. I know it's gonna be a hard grind and a true test of my poker skills and patience but I'm gonna try to learn as much as I can as I go.

Get more money, man - 17 buy-ins is cutting it close, even at $10 NL. Also, try to get Rakeback and/or bonuses. Deposit at new sites if necessary. Nothing's better than still making money in a breakeven downswing.

I don't have AIM as no one does in England anymore, but I'll get it now and probably take you up on that.

17 @ 10 isn't really bad. I mean, yeah - 30, 40, 100 buy ins is fun, but 10nl isn't a variancefest compared to higher stakes.

Indeed. I love pulling down 5 buy-ins in rakeback in a month playing 10nl after having a +1 buy-in month. It makes low-limit life seem so much more livable.

Buy-in for 100bbs and reload everytime you get down below 100. If you have 100bbs here, you'd have another $5.00 for your roll.

I've had AIM since I was 14 (I'm 20) and I wouldn't know what to do without it. Did the UK make a big switch or has their always been a lack of AIM usage in the country?

MSN has always been popular in this country. I only got AIM a year or two ago to chat to FCPers in the US.MSN is better.

My grandparents use MSN and it is like being on a different planet. Plus I don't like to talk to my relatives online so it's better to avoid them and use AIM :club:
