Wud I need two if me computer downstairs already has a internet socket?

Yes.

Otherwise how will the information be encoded and decoded off the mains electricity?

Yeah you need 2!

One for your router, the other for your laptop / computer.

Of course the cheaper alternative is just to get a really really long network cable!

Downloaded the new update of HEM..hands still not importing. Is there something I am missing?

The better option IMO if you have a desktop PC. If you got a laptop get wireless as you can walk around and stuff. Chord or desktop makes working around harder.

So, I made 70 cents last night in the midnight FIVE tournament on FTP. took it to the 1/2 cent tables, and made enough to get five more FTP points for the 8:05 FIVE tonight. I like this new promotion, gonna be playing all week, methinks.

I know the turn call isn't all that amazing but i'd had a good session and couldnt resist calling 35c to try to hit the 5 or 10 of clubs, if this was any other club i'm folding but i figured with the flush draw and poss house out there i was definetly going to get value if one of them hit.

probably gonna take some flack for it but like i said, i'd had a good session already and was making the next round my last anyways

 

[pantin007]

so basically if ur having a good session, ull just start playing bad and start gambling in bad spots? sounds like a leak to me

 

[Dwilius]

Well he did get paid for his odds almost twice over.

See Boku is on his next challenge. Turning $5>$100k in less than a year playing MTT SNG's. Some reckon it won't take him anywhere near that to complete it. Sicko awesomeness imo!

My maths could be wrong but i work out, with 2 outs, getting 4-1 on the turn, i need to make 6.30 on the river to make that call ok, like i said, with the poss boats and if the club comes making a flush poss too i thought i could get a lot of value on my 35c call, i made 12.64 so after doing some quick away from the table review i would make that call again.

Also, i was up approx $13 on that table, so, i made a call on the turn there for about 2% of my profits so far for a chance to double my profits for the session. Gambling in a bad spot???? Really??

Boku is not human. Fact

 

[pantin007]

the pot had like what, 2$ in? so say everyone checks and u bet pot, in most cases u get 1 or no callers, so the majority of the time u dont make 6.3 on the river

it is a very bad spot, u have 2 outs. possibly 1 or 0 considering card disposal and ur not guaranteed to double ur profits if u hit. because 7-2 cracks AA doesnt mean that u should play 7-2

boku is the most redic grinder ever, he is just way to sick

 

[orangepeeleo]

so with the boats and flushes out there if the club comes and 3 other players, at a $5 game, i think that if it comes, and i know its a BIG if, then i'm stacking one guy for sure, poss 2.

even if i just stack 2rb1, who did bet out small on the turn so he has a piece, then i make what i need to, anyone else's stack is a bonus.

And thanks for the conversion ice

ok, continue playing the way u play

 

[orangepeeleo]

but probably wouldn't or shouldn't be calling river for much when those others hit.

No i'm not calling much on the river if the 5 or 10c doesn't come, and if i was first to act after 2rb1 bets the turn then i fold to what was then a jus under pot size bet.

Remember this is 2c5c PLO, villains don't need a flush or a house to stack the river, i think with 3 villains i'm getting huge implied odds to call the turn at the $5 games, higher up then its a different story but play $5 PLO for a while and you'll see what i mean

 

[switch0723]

i rock hard at spewing my stack away in tournies, its an art
