I have the evoluent vertical mouse as well and love it. It just feels so much more comfortable once you're used to it and I agree with gavz, my wrist feels fine now. The only thing I dislike is that normal mouses now feel extremely uncomfortable, and it is really annoying using them at a friends place or school or anywhere.

I used to have the evoluent mouse and it fell a couple of times and broke and is irreplaceable in Mexico. It made a huge difference in my comfort level when I had it though.

Kutty, I think I saw in the SD thread that you live there. Ever make it up to oceans or stick to the half and half at Palomar/Village?
Just curious as I frequent the mentioned rooms.
When I get back into town maybe I will try to introduce myself.

Re: **August LC Thread**

evoluent does not work for a lot of people. i couldn't stand it and it did nothing for my pain.

this has a much higher success rate, completely eliminates all pain, and is generally loved by everyone that tries it for a few days:

Re: **August LC Thread**

^^Confirmed, got this one last year in the middle of my SNE grind and it made a huge difference. Now I can't imagine going back to regular mouse.

Here's a thread which might be useful to those looking for a new mouse.

Re: **August LC Thread**

i have trouble imagining the trackball being easy to use....maybe just something that it takes about a week to get used to. i have quite a big hand and normal mouse feels so damn small

antchev how did you organize your tables when going for SNE? that trackball mouse + tiling 12 tables sounds like a lot work for your thumb

and big thanks for the link!

Re: **August LC Thread**

napsus -

I have a logitech trackball, and it is super easy to use. Seriously it will take you like 10 minutes to get used to it.

It is physically bigger than a mouse, so should actually be better for bigger hands. Also it is faster than a mouse as you can spin the ball to move the cursor further/faster.

if anyone's interested, btw, i took mdma this weekend after taking a course in vitamin supplements recommended to me by someone who knows their sh**... result was a very clean high and no comedown whatsoever. the information comes in the form of a spreadsheet, pm me if interested.

12 tables tiling. You have to play 4-5 hours straight to start feeling some fatigue in the thumb which is not advised either way

Re: **August LC Thread**

Are there any cardrooms in NorCal that offer PLO? I'm looking at the Bay 101 website and they seem to only offer hi-low?
