- Get an IEEE-VR full-paper accepted.
- Prepare a VRST 2007 presentation in advance: not the last day.

Oh, poker.

- Play good. Even if it means I lose, if I play good I don't care.
- Win and quickly move up... I'm slowly dying at $1/2: I hate it. I want to play $3/6 and $5/10 again asap.
- (make something cool out of my 2500th post)

1) Get my main laptop fixed so I can play poker, and stop borrowing peeps computers to go check email/browse 2p2

2) play lots o' poker, and try to focus on playing less marginal hands. 30/20 doesn't seem to work for me, and the rake may be getting the best of me on my weaker stealing hands, and try to trim down on some EP/MP opening standards. Either that, or at the very least shake off the cobwebs playing a more 26/18 type of thing at 1/2 and 2/4.

7. Be Happy if I just manage to not do anything to [censored] up the awesome August I had.

VMWare is a virtual machine, allows you to run a different operating system virtually. Mostly for security reasons, but I also prefer Linux. Pokerstars does run under emulation type software, but I can't run pokertracker/pockerace without VMWare.

Slackware. TBH I've been using Windows mostly the past couple years because I'm too lazy to set it up, but I just ordered a PS3 and gonna try Gentoo on that which got me back into it.

Unfortunately no party for me, plus I'm a HUDBOT. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

I've said it once, I'll say it again. Heisenberg you are my hero :-)

I spent a month playing poker in LA earlier this year so I have some experience that a young-canadain might not have discovered yet. You know that the doller goes a lot farther in Mexico right? Why go to an LA strip club when Tijuana is a stone throw away? :-) American Strip Club <<< Tijuana "Strip" Club
