The funny thing is I still type in the chat box for therapy. I hate that red response that says contact support to get your chat back.... ++++EV for me not to have chat, but it sucks when I can't *** with spidy.

guys this avatar thing is really getting out of hand because i usually identify people by their avatar but i cant do that now. What makes it even worse is that when I look at the name my eyes catch that obnoxious avatar for another 1/4 second.

I've never seen him chat, period. I've seen him bail immediately after he raised/capped the river with small pockets UI when I flopped quad royalty from the SB. That was better than anything he could have possibly said in chat after the hand.

Pretty good name for someone who never chats, imo.

what's the minimum time length required to keep this avatar?

after the time frame, am I allowed to return to the miles twirl?

I'm running bad, so 15 dollars might come in handy

One condition is that you cannot return to the miles avatar.

I played him more than 6 months before I saw him chat. He does talk. He seems like a nice guy for the record.

His style is good for HU play... He is not an ideal HU oponent. Then again if I knew who you were maybe I would play you HU.

I dont know where you guys get the idea that spewing is good for hu play. Its not and in fact its like pretty much the biggest leak you can have if your opponent knows the spots you are most likely to spew and acts accordingly. Obviously an ideal hu opponent would be one that does alot of limping, misses alot of bets and never bluffs, but those opponents just dont exist to the extent that a huhu pro can count on them to make a living. Silencio never adjusted to the fact that I never, ever, ever, ever, ever would fold any kind of showdown value to him. Maybe he has now realized that his style garners virtually 0 fold equity, but it was surely an expensive lesson.

Diamond Elite requires 10k pts to reach that status. Is that 10k credits in one month? or is it 10k over a 3 month period? The wording was confusing. Can Anyone confirm the info on this for me? I'm new to AP....Thanks.

i'm the wrong dude to talk about silencio since he has run at 8.5bb/100 in my database, but from what i've seen, he just seems to, almost at random, spew off like 3bb. otherwise he seems to play most spots the same as most other lagtags. i have several hands where he just called down a turn checkraise or bet/3bet with TPTK, but then there's one where he raise/caps K8 on like AT5K and raises a donkbet on a river 8. pretty perplexing.

Its not 10 k credits, its vip points. You have three months to maintain it. Very simple

Does anyone ever think of it as simply a game rather than attempting to rationalize every situation throughout a hand? Some people just have the money to lose and simply just play poker and play differently depending on their mood and other factors in life. Its not always about calculating the decisions and trying to be perfect. Alot of players simply click the buttons with a general thought about there hand rather than wondering what the other person in thinking and what they have. It doesnt always have to be so complex..Over the long haul its skill, but from random session to random session, its alot of luck.

this is my perception for fish regulars and not so much for guys who i assume make a living playing the game.
