Hi!
Do you think PokerStars is the best room? I can't decide between 888 and Stars. What do you recommend?:)

Ujjj, such a hard thing to answer. I think it's very individual, and depends on what your preferences are. Traffic, software, softer opponents, rakeback, being able to play zoom (with HUD, 888 has it but no HUD is supported), amount of tables you wanna play (888 is capped to 6 for non zoom)... both have pros and cons, and I think the best way to figure it out is just to try it out yourself and form your own opinion.
GL!
Sorry I missed the update. My back is busted and pretty much every movement hurts, so not much time at all out of bed. Just a quick update now and then back to bed with heating bottle and try to recover ![]()
Week 13 summary
Hands: 199
Rakeback: $0.06
Profit: $1 + $0.06 = $1.06
Current BR: $203.41
Can't update. My computer has crashed.
Just wont start. Bastard thing! It had been acting weird lately with sometimes not starting the first time I pushed the button and then was fine for a few days and now it's just not starting at all
BF is checking tomorrow if it's the button itself that could be broken (or the cable for that matter, it's an old chassi) or the power supply... Hopefully it's one of those. But no idea when I can get it back up and running, I can't access last weeks hands so I can't report and as for playing, well I have the laptop but it's damned slow and HEM2 really lags it alot so it's almost impossible to play...
Wanted to post a hand but what the heck is all this extra info and how do I aviod that? I don't even have the "show EV" etc clicked on weaktight... too much fuss deleting it by myself each time I want to post a hand but it makes it very cluttery ![]()

Well that was the original thing that i started to play poker at the first place. First it was livepokernight with friends, beer and excitement with great bluffs or all-in shoves. Later on, it take some serious direction, when i started to figure it out how to make money out of it.

what ISNT fun is getting getting sucked out on a lot. But hey, winning is fun so it evens out ey

Mix of NL5 fast and NL4/NL6 reg tables

~7 BI under EV in 3k hands is pretty impressive, don't know how I was able to produce +4 BI in spite of it all
