I need some feedback on how a friend is doing down there on my account, Schwallie.

[/ QUOTE ]

Prod- Be careful. The sites are starting to really crack down on account sharing. Some players have recently had their accounts permanently closed due to this.

Still need some feedback if anyone has any.

Pokerboy; ty, but I have never played on the account. He is the only one that plays it, it was just started before he was 18 under my name. I think we should be alright. Regardless it's not a life altering amount he has there yet so no big. I will be switching to his name soon enough [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Still trying to fix these PAHUD problems.

This program is so buggy it's driving me crazy. I have had nothing but problems with it since the day I began using it.

So I'm trying to change some settings (as recommended by support) while I'm 12-tabling and it hogs all my resources and freezes my computer. I'm in the middle of a huge multi-player pot and my hand gets folded. I would have won the pot but in essence I lose $200.

I cannot wait until a more reliable product hits the market (there are several on the way).

On a related note, my PokerTracker is on the fritz too. I just finished a session and there are a bunch of green numbers on the screen. [img]/images/graemlins/ooo.gif[/img]

Can anybody link to that FPP/VPP calculator that somebody came up with awhile back? I want to figure out if I could make Supernova by the end of the year and how much I'd need to play [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Recently back after a long break - I had a breakthrough da yeseterday (+$100o at NL(1) and won 530 T$). Looking to keep the run going today.

I have 75K VPP to go to get my SN by the end of the year. My goal is 1000 per day on the days I play - I should make it playing 4 days a week.

Hey guys, Quick ?

My English teacher tells me that our final research paper is going to be on a controversial subject in our field of study. I am majoring in business and/or investing. How can I incorporate Poker into this?

I was thinking Poker as a positive investment?
I would love to somehow incorporate it into the business side but doubt I can.

[/ QUOTE ]

Economics: Poker as an investment - is playing poker any different to buying shares? The luck of the cards = systematic risk

Business: Comparison between selling goods and selling bluffs/value bets. Essentially both are about understanding how the customer sees both you and themselves in the marketplace etc.

Comparison beteen big name poker players and big name brands - is being loud better than being good?

Comparison between poker players asking for help on 2p2 and business students asking for help - are they both just going to go off and do their own thing anyway?

This is all the way back on like 248, but what an amazing post.

Brilliant Lordy, plain [censored] brilliant.
