[Sponger.]

I bought a laptop yesterday from Costco for $1400. Today I've played for 5.4 hours on it in my living room and I'm up $3800. I am pretty happy right now.

Sponger or really anyone who plays HU alot, what is a good PT bb/100 for 2/4 and 3/6 HU over a large sample? I'm not a great HU player but I am definately above average. Just curious what kind of numbers I should be striving for.

usnaron: yea, hands with +ev are horrible
Ace_upmy_Slv 73: people that play strictly by EV are horrible
usnaron: limping with 57 utg is -ev long run
Ace_upmy_Slv 73: typical Sklansky players make me laugh

[True]

a computer that had to make decisions based on immediate EV in a vacuum would not be as good as a player that understands all implications of a prospective move.

Ah back at stars 2/4. I almost forgot how terrible basically all the regs are.

so he calls $60 to win $770 with 6 clean outs...

(dont slowplay in small pots if you're gonna stack off huge later when he gets there)

[DJ Sensei]

also i think my recent bad run has been a result of changing my location away from "pushing it to the limit". so i'm gonna fix that.

[Jeffmet3]

cashout curse is definitely real. just had the most ridiculous session of my life.

whoever is manu ginobli on fulltilt...
