Good read, it needs some trips reports and nekkid woman obv
About your goals, how much u plan to make this year? You say to have a 25k roll, but to win a lot more amirite? If you plan to play 500k hands this year you should make like 4x that.

Dude, im only @ 100NL, gonna move upto 200NL @ $10k i think, then 400NL @ $20k, and yeah i only expect to make $25k this year, but after iv'e played 100k hands of 100NL, ill have an idea of what my "true" winrate is and recalculate some figures.

Thanks for taking a look guys, i'll try to make it more appealing sometime, but I suck at making web pages and such. With that being said nekkid woman seem to be at the top of the 'What we want on blog' list so we'll see what we can do. :cool:

Although I dont think cheating is a massive problem I do think bots exist, as well as people playing more than one account on a table. Although it is a problem, I think the vast majority of players are not cheaters. As far as botting goes I dont think they are sophisticated enough to adapt to table conditions correctly. The more major concern to me is multi-accounting at a table, which has happened and I'm sure is still going on.
As for the disconnect protect AI I would suggest that you report the issue to support if it is a blatently obvious disconnect AI. Also maybe add pressure to the site to remove disconnect protection and have an extended timer for disconnects in its place, which I would like to see.
Thanks for the input.

Just: "don't suck." :)
Im no master HU player by any means, but I assume this is very player dependent. Probably 3 betting the top half of their raising range is good. Can go wider if they are weak.
My std game is to raise atc from the SB and adjust from there.

nice hands for sure, the runner runner straight after he checks two pair twice was a godsend.
nice hand with the K8 as well.
I viewd the hands before I read your little summaries of them, the 99 hand he played it like he had a 6 for sure.

But seriously could someone explain how to just attach a pic from your comp to your user CP. Ie: I just want to post the image in my post using the url instead of having to attach it to whatever I post because it shrinks it and such.

Not sure how much you know so I`ll start at the beginning.
Set up a PhotoBucket or similar image hosting account.
Upload image to PB.
Copy url for that image from PB
Go to forum
Click the insert image option. It should bring up a new window with a place to put your url.
Insert url. Post.

Oh I need a image hosting account? I figured i could attach pics to my user cp or something where its hosted on pdc, since it lets you attach things to posts, but maybe you can't. I was obviously far too lazy to to go look for a place to host my image...although in the long run that would've been quicker.

By the way, good news for our loyal readers. Despite Chris' attempts to reload my bankroll for me while my money is in limbo, I have decided that I'm going to deposit 100 and grind out a bunch of micro-stakes instead to rebuild the roll. I know this is the level where most of our readers play at so I'll try to give some insight on how to build a bankroll quickly.

meh... I think it's easier to read if i can convert it like chris does. Shouldn't be too long before I get something that can convert it for me. I find it hard to analyze and see what I did on every street if I just take a picture of the HH.

I'll teach you chris. I played pretty bad in that video i think though lol. Surprised you found it, I was just testing the video compression with that one. I'll go over that video and explain the thought process on a couple of hands and I couple where I should've probably did something different.
A real strat video coming up soon!
The current one shouldn't really be taken as a strategy video because I played a couple hands badly (such as the T2 hand) and didn't explain the thought process behind other hands (44 hand). Also played really weak-tight preflop, which at 25NL probably isn't horrible. Anyways, take it for what its worth but I don't think its a great video.
