Yes. I vote you discuss live play including bankroll management, differences in playing style, player read techniques. Differences in stakes levels. Anything and everything an aspiring live player should learn from your experience.

Bankroll management? You mean what to do when you take a shot and lose half your bankroll? [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

That's actually not a bad idea... I'll give that one some thought.

here is another one,

"Principles for extracting value from a new breed of slightly better Micro stakes player in small 2-4 handed pots; when value betting falls short"

At least I find that I'm losing value at times because my bet and raise buttons are much bigger than my call and check buttons [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

I am totally confident your route to recovery will be prudently managed and a lesson for many of us should you decide to share it at some point in the future. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Playing 0.50/1, 2/4, and 11+r NL at the same time while a bottle of wine deep is confusing.

Don't worry, you're not alone in the stupid aggro boat.

Help me win an argument with the wife!

In Scrabble if I use my letters in such away that I extend a word already on the board as well as making a new word then I get points for both words dont I?

Example: Assume all letters score 1 point. She makes the word CAT and scores 3 points. I then attempt to make the word DOGS as follows

___D
___0
___G
CATS

1. Is this a legal move?
2. How many points do I score?

I say
1. Yes
2. 8 points (4 for dogs and 4 for cats?)

Amirite? Please be pointing me to an offical scrabble rule that backs me up if iamrite?

I had a quick look but couldnt find an offical rule about this online (I didnt look that hard though [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] )

uRrite by rule 4


try here

* There are five different ways that new words can be formed:

1. Adding one or more tiles to the beginning or end of a word already on the board, or to both the beginning and end of that word.
e.g. Trainer can become Strainers if you have two tiles with the letter S.

2. Placing a word at right angles to a word already on the board. The new word must use one of the letters of the word already on the board. Note, a right angle can be _| or |_

3. Placing a complete word parallel to a word already played so that adjoining tiles also form complete words.

4. A new word added at right angles can also add a letter to an existing word.

5. The last variation is to bridge two or more letters. (This can only be done after the fourth move or later in the game).

Ozi-
You are 100% correct here. You get points for both words.
