Pretty sure this post wasn't made to be takes seriously. Ya know like, the actual "humblest guy alive" isn't gonna come out and proclaim "i'm the humblest guy alive." Get it?


I think it's hillarious that wintermag posts this chat when he is notorious for chatbox berating/educating fish. WTF hypocrite?



As for the chat, i find it a little douchey and below a super-reg like mindcirkus.

Jesus, are you really that insecure that you can't handle some random poker player who obviously didn't know what he was doing insulting you?

So berate away if you must at a certain point of provocation, but for ****s sake don't mention PTR.
Yes. Exactly this.

You really don't see a difference between saying something like "wtf moron you are terrible, etc" and telling a random fish about PTR?

seriously wintermag, spend more time worrying about your game, and less time worrying about me. you might even learn to beat .5/1 eventually.

as for the pokerstars rules, i thought it was only against rules to download hands. i mean how can they control what websites a person visits.

I'm pretty sure they can see what processes you are running and I guess through that they can see what websites you visit? Either way, one sure fire ****ing way to alert them of your use of PTR is brag about your winrate in the chatbox.

Now that I think of it, I saw one of the poker stars staff post about this in a internet thread recently. He said they have the ability to monitor the websites that players visit, but that they were not going to do it anymore because players were outraged about it. He said they were working to try to find a way to stop pokertableratings by eliminating the ability for them to collect hands.

EDIT: I also never said I use PTR in the chatbox or anywhere else for that matter, and again I do not brag about winrates in chatbox. I play 3k hands a day on stars, and no one else will be able to tell you of any instance where I have done so. In fact when people tell me I suck or say something else negative, I just agree with them 95% of the time, because that is the best way to get them to be quiet, and end the convo so I can focus on poker. These were very extreme circumstances, and I did not do it to brag, it was an effort to end the hour long convo about how bad I suck.

I believe this was a rare occurrence and admit to having them myself at times; most if not all players who play that many hands a day are bound too. It's just best off not to mention PTR or sharkscope or HEM or 2p2 or anything that is going to help your opponents + observers better their game.

wintermag continues to be the most immature loser i have ever come across. he should probably spend more time working on his game seeing as how he is broke right now and not even a winner in the games he plays.
I think the reason I dont win 20k/month on a regular basis is, because my ego isnt bigger than the Burj Khalifa.

I could take **** from some fish for 10 hours if necessary. Your whole post makes you look so insecure. It's not about what others think about you, it's what you know is true. Let them talk **** 24/7, you know they are trying to get to you.

And fwiw:

Spoiler:
He succeeded!

Interesting that PTR is banned completely for Stars users. Meanwhile it's banned only while playing at Full Tilt.

Any 25PLO players able to post their vpp/hand numbers for 6 max tables? Thinking about switching to poker stars due to rush poker diluting the player pool at full tilt. Curious what sort of volume would be necessary to reach supernova.

How about all you guys shut up about who is getting angry and/or berating players. Who cares? And you all go into these detailed descriptions of the events and then feel the need to protect yourselves with another essay. Come on are you really that concerned with your 2+2 reputation? Let your results speak for themselves, after all that's all that really matters.

Yeah but stars don't actually do anything about it. I think they've stopped peeking at people's internet now. Proper security should stop that from happening anyway.

Hell ****ing no!

Who cares about results, do you want to turn this place into SSNL, where everyone is making a few bucks, but talks like they were making 300 grand a year?

WinterMag,

Are you exclusively playing the hit and run game?
****Official Stars Regulars Thread**** Quote
01-25-2010 , 11:54 PM
How do you guys play for more than 4 hours in a day? I mean after that I am pretty much not playing my best as I am tired and drowsy and proly not even break even. Maybe I need to be more physically active as I've been playing too much MW2.

~0.2 VPP/hand for 6 max. If you're a nit, it may run lower.
