I find it hard to find any decent information in amongst all the diatribe and vitriol in this thread directed at some guy who limps his button too much.

this thread is alot like the circus and the zoo combined, we even have our own elephant man ,we just call him waterblank for short.

ok, thanks guys.

Somewhere I saw a post that I can't find now.

Something along the lines of recommendations for button size raises depending on how deep you are.

eg: 100 deep 3x
50 deep 2.5x etc......

anyone got a link to such a post or your own recommendations.

Thanks,

222

20-40BB 2x - 2.5x
lower 2x or limp

but as said - this is only the peak of the iceberg

just felt id vent on that[:

dude, quit paying attention to the chat so much, your tilting yourself.

Am I the only one that has chat turned off all the time.

Turn off chat. Too easy.

Maybe I'm anti-social but I really don't want to chat to anyone while I'm playing.

i would never turn chat off. it is so often fun. and i do not get tilted when they talk b...s...
and still could mute if it would affect me.

on the other hand i can pretend to be a fish in the chat or tilt villain by talking trash....this can be very very useful...sometimes...

ok i'm done with turbos. i think i'd rather get sodomized by Orson Welles' resurrected corpse than play another again. comparison of stats for last 1,500 turbos and last 1,500 reg speeds at same stakes (of course with reg speeds i have to wait like an hour to get a game, which then lasts an hour, so that 1,500 sample is over a 20 year time span)

yeah i think in the old days when i first joined 2+2 if you got banned then your SN or undertitle would read as "censored." so, given my legendary wit, i chose this name.

He played this really passive and floaty style, 3betting 4% and generally not putting much if any pressure on me.

fwiw, I think he's one of the better nitty regs. Obv plenty to not be enamored with but there are softer spots.
