it's official: unchecking the auto-post blinds button on full tilt activates the rigging machine. set over set on my very last hand before the blinds hit and i sit out. this happens far too often.

lol,

Trying 2/4 this morning and the same [censored] continues just like anytime I try moving up. Usual sets always losing etc.

[bottomset]

prod, while it sucks to lose there, you didn't even lose a buyin of your normal stakes on the hand

[TheProdigy]

hehe, not like I'm upset or anything, I am just saying I always seem to lose every set there and every big hand.

I am actually about to end my session there and I must say that I played...umm, horribly. Of course having a 40/20/infinity and a 38/26/10 turn over AA and KK respectively didn't help any.

It will be a slow transition but I must have some experience build up so I can get more used to it.

[Mike Kelley]

Mike Kelley Theorem:

40/26/8's get dealt AA,KK 26% of the time.

I suck out good
