In the offseason, the Suns should try to trade for a consistent rebounder/perimeter defender/scorer. Someone like, oh, idk, Shawn Marion?

right like the season ended any differently with shaq than it did with shawn marion. shawn marion was a ghost in big playoff games....it's almost like most NBA players coast through the season and when they turned it on in big playoff games it made it tough for a player like marion who picked up the slop points and rebounds throughout the season to do as much in the playoffs

2 graphs since I played on 2 computers, and need to merge the db's.

Keep playing on computer #2, you are running better right now on that one

Blah, 20k chips at 4th break, 45/66. Lost a 30k pot with 22 vs. A9 got it in on a 337 flop, river A. Still in it, kinda tough with Exitonly on my left though.

I said it can get boring but I'm usually involved in at least one hand because I open a pretty wide range from the CO and btn so it's not a problem most of the time. The main reasons I don't play more tables is that I hate overlap and I hate playing on really tiny tables. I can't play more than 4 without one or the other. Until I add a 2nd monitor anyway. Hopefully that won't be too long.

I know what you mean about the overlap, it sucks, but from my experience, the play is just so horrific that opening a wider range usually isn't as profitable as you'd think b/c they simply won't fold. That's why I suggested a few more tables, tighten up a bit and just bet your winners. It's kind of robotic, can get boring, and probably won't help you out much as a player, but I've read a ton of your other posts where you def know what you're doing/what you're talking about, but your thinking is too advanced and sophisticated for where you're at. Just an idea for a diff approach.edit: a 2nd montior would solve everything imo

Yea when you go from silver to gold you earn FPP's at twice the rate I believe? Not sure since this is the first month I've played cash with any regularity ever.

MISLEADING IMO

LOL, you just gave Mikey a woody. But seriously, WTF is up with this? Scotty kept making it sound like there would be in May.

hahhaha how true : /

Yeah I would bet / fold turn too. Wouldn't check shove river tho. If he flats turn, cf club rivers and probably cc non-clubs.As played I definitely call river. From his perspective you just c-betted, then checked turn - he can easily be value betting worse or just bluffing. You are getting a good enough price to call imo.

[Jordan 1]

hi May.I plyaed 5/10 today. One against a total donk and second table against a fairly competent but really loose guy. i really am not happy with how I played 80% of the match against the later. The former match was just stupid and I take a lot off him usually but i'm still not happy with how I played overall.I almost bustoed my eurolinx account so I'm gonna have to grind 2/4 and 3/6 till I have a little bit more to play 5/10 there...but man i don't know what was wrong w/ me...I almost got robusto then AT < T7 on T7x board...that sucked cause I had gained all the momentum in the match and was doing well..i just quit after that. so deflating.- Jordan

fypJust a cooler imo. Although, with those stats I can't think of much else he'd play like that besides a set or big combo draw. Probably not AKdd this deep. Maybe 89dd.Also, why would your hand be face up? Do you only 3bet AA?
