CobaltBlue 657 Report post Posted June 22, 2006 I thank you for the list. The only one that is mentioned that I just don't get is why people spell owned ......pwned. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pwned Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jowest 0 Report post Posted June 22, 2006 Thanks for the list - I'm glad I got most of them right on my own. I'll admit that I was afraid to use many of them in case I guessed wrong.Can anyone tell me what "EV" is, as in "+EV"? That one has me scratching my head, which most likely means it is not hard to figure out, but I'm just not seeing it.+1 would also be a good addition, though easier to figure out.sure thing. No problem at all. You see with the growing craze of "blowing up" at the table in today's card room everything is now judged on the level of violence an action could cause. EV means "extremely violent". If an action is +EV it can cause violent blow ups at the table. if the action is -EV there is no conscern.Hope that helps.+1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't give away knowledge. Knowledge is all we have to separate us from NWP. This Thread Is Dumb As Hell? I didn't list it cause I haven't seen it before. =)Yeah, yeah...they can run into walls, but I think people get sick of having to explain TP/MM for the millionth time. This way, they only have to explain it 999,999 times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
