*** January's Juxtaposed Pokahz Chat ***

SNES is sick. i've got street fighter II turbo, super mario all stars (compilation including 1, 2, and 3 from the NES as well as super mario world), zelda: link to the past, yoshi's island, super mario RPG, donkey kong 1 and 3 (i lost 2, which also happens to be the best one ), more stuff i can't remember. best system ever imo

not for sale though, just bragging

heyo anybody know where I can buy like a used NES and SNES systems with a bunch of games? I forgot how ****in sick super mario bros 3 and like the old zelda games were...ooh, an N64 would be sick too.

I realize I could buy from like ebay, but I want somewhere trustworthy...

I've played emulators (they have them hosted online now...) but I need the real controllers. I need the actual platforms. I need to blow in the cartridges before I play...

So I guess this just means go look for a small video game store and see if they have any of those old systems?

i don't get your qualms with the trustworthiness of ebay though? just buy from someone with good feedback and it'll go smoothly just about always

Sick month so far imo

Just have bad history with it. Bought a jersey from a 99+ rep guy back in the day when $100 was like everything to me, and not only did he not send me the jersey but didn't reply to any of my emails or anything.

Will take anohter look at it though.

Very nice BW!

Finally got to hit the tables some today... So frustrated with how life keeps knocking me down right now. Feel like I've regressed some.

I think I'm going to get some coaching here soon though!

Awesome bw, what BB/100 you getting there?

Yea if you have a used video game store where you live it should have at least a 64. Which, btw, if you happen to get, you must get the following:

Mario Kart
Diddy Kong Racing
Snowboard kids
007
Blitz

Luckily my friend and roommate has a 64 and these, so many great memories. Anyone else have some favorite games?

Awesome bw, what BB/100 you getting there?

7.07 BB/100 at 100NL over 43k hands
-0.80 BB/100 at 200NL over 12k hands

ughhhh blitz was the shit, lemlywinks. So much wasted time in between classes in the lounge room thing

Can't leave zelda off the list either. Too classic.

It's well worth the $200 or whatever I'll spend total on all 3 systems and a shitload of games to have them for myself rather than some program on my PC. Emulators are sick, but I really want the systems

Villian is BAD 57/14/1 over ~45 hands. I'd been isolating him liberally and he'd generally been giving up to a cbet or occasionally on the turn. We had not gone to SD before this hand.

Anyway, is my turn raise amount enough considering his stack size?

Played some 100nl FR on Full Tilt. idk if it's just because it's the weekend but it was super fishy. +2 buy-ins in 600 hands. 12-tabled for about an hour and if I just did that every day next month I'd be getting free Stox+CR, whatever the ironman shit is for getting iron, and like $350 in rakeback (assuming the HEM rake figure is correct) every month. I plan on playing a bit more early to make it up to 200nl and then I can split time between the two. Got like 2k after today and probably start playing 200nl when I have like 3k. FTP players what kind of scripts do you use? Is there anything to hit the time bank? That's the most annoying thing so far and is preventing me from playing more tables. Also I seem to recall someone saying there was a script to position tables from both Stars and FTP easily (tile obv) and I didn't know where I coul find that. Thanks.

wv: yesh. imo. Only leaves 18 behind in a 35 pot if he calls. I guess you could shove the turn if you think he's often on a draw or something and will call, but your sizing looks fine to me.

I run goot btw.

Honestly Zach, if you're going to play at FTP buying Full Tilt Shortcuts will be the best $35 (iirc) you can spend. It does your time bank, auto bet sizing, sit in/out on all tables, auto-focus table to cursor, and a million other things. It cost like $15/year for the latest major version and I don't want to remember what it was like when I played without it.

I just had my worst day ever. Dropped -$450. Feels horrible. I am sad. Whine whine, bitch bitch. I am sure someone will come along to kick me right in the nads after i post this. yay for that too.

Not even going to read your post tbh. You know the drill. Cool off, get back into HEM, review your hands to see if you could have played better, improve, get back to the tables tomorrow. Just wait til -1k is your typical bad day
