gravy- congrats on the pace that you are on, i hope u reach it early so u can take a break, anyways I got a side bet going with someone that you will get over 8% roi during this period, what do u think your chances are of doing so, im guessing not too good since your at 6% right now.

[/ QUOTE ]

over the last 1000 games ive had an avg. roi of about 11% so pretty decent actually.

gravy, I would try not to do the shrunken tile thing with that many tables for too long (many months, year). That seriously could eff up your eyes over time.

[/ QUOTE ]

does that mean i should stop 18 table tiling on the smallest stars table size? ive used this setup for a while...

[/ QUOTE ]

haha that is disgusting, cascading on a labtop with that many tables is so much more effective.

for what its worth i have 2 monitors (15 inch laptop and 19 inch lcd) that i do it on....should i just start cascading anyways? I always feel naked/without reads when i do that but maybe i should just get used to it.

couple thoughts on this thread.

Kleath and everyone related to that discussion, let's drop it. No more stupid bickering or I'll be handing out some thin bans.

I always get scared I'm going to lose a table if I cascade. Plus I really try to keep up with everything that's going on on each table as much as I can. Pretty tough while cascading.

Same here, though I'd like to test it out. I usually just tile 16 at the smallest size on a 20" monitor with the lobby up on my laptop screen next to it. I'm assuming once you get sat out at a table its pretty tough to find it? Is there any way to realize one isn't popping up and is there any easy way to fix it if you do happen to figure it out?

Re: 25k at the 60s in 1 month challenge (Oct props)
 

Vista = good for cascading. It will give you a little preview window of whatever application you move your mouse over. So if you have 16 tables all under the PokerStars Lobby taskbar icon you can move your mouse over each table icon listed and it gives you a live preview and you can quickly/easily see if the "I'm Back" button is being displayed.

I've never really had problems with window focus on stars. The only time it sometimes [censored] up is when a new table first loads and some other table was requesting action. Tonight on FTP focus was all messed up and tables requiring action weren't popping at all - but that's pretty rare and I switched to tiled to adjust to the situation.

Re: 25k at the 60s in 1 month challenge (Oct props)
 

The reason the tables on FTP quit popping up to the front is a glitch in their software. If you bust in a tourney without knowing and let it fall to the back w/o closing it yourself, FTP will close it after it is finished and this causes the tables not to pop up anymore unless you restart the software. This really, really sucks when you're playing continuous and time out on half of them before you figure out they quit jumping up to the front.

Never really been a major fan of cascading but this certainly doesn't make me want to rush out and start doing it on FTP.

With windows Vista I think cascading is the way and its not even close.

A nice feature of Vista in fact is allowing you to see a micro window from the windows bar o the bottom therefore you can always see if by chance you are sitting out.

Although Vista have massive issues with HUD.

Not sure how well my script works since I haven't played on FTP for a few months, but I put in a hotkey for these situations. Script will start popping upp the tables for you so you can continue to play cascaded for the rest of the session. You won't be able to do anything else than play poker though since the script continue to activate the first table that needs action until you act.

It's easy to parse HHs to see if you're sitting out and if so you can move that table to a spot where it's visible so you can click sit in. I'm in a grinding mode though so can't afford to program.

dangit, i could be rich. before this started, i seriously contemplated taking action on gravy's side because i considered him a favorite. i probably would have had no trouble getting as much action as i could possibly take. gravy, please stay insanely focused and finish this off. can't believe how many people doubted you and to what extent they doubted. one guy even said 18k is the most a person could possibly win in a month at this level. where the hell do people pull stuff like that from? i have a guess.

just wanted to wish continued good luck. impossible is nothing.

Gravy,
Just download tourney manager and then email their support and tell them you got a new computer. RVG will send you new activation code, its not like he'll charge you again just because you got a new computer.

Quit being a tard, this thread needs graphs and you know it.

Is there any evidence that looking at small things makes your eyes bad? That seems about as likely as the warnings from your mom that your face will permanently stay deformed if you are making weird faces.

When you look at things that are smaller you have to strain your eyes to see it whether you feel it or not. It can result in vision problems. I should probably stop 18 table tiling [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] but i doubt im going to...
