why didn't you get a better ssd?
vertex 3 is just hitting the shelves and it's pwning the **** out of every other ssd
plus the smaller an ssd the slower and you have to keep like 30% empty space on it otherwise it will perform far from optimally
80gb for win+db doesn't sound like fun

yeah i couldnt get any 120 without having to wait a day, so unaccaptable. i think 80 should be fine for now, im fine with not having my whole database on it and will probably get a bigger SSD in a couple months when theyre more reasonable priced/bigger.

Way to finish strong McIlroy. I wonder if he will ever recover from this. At least he waited until the final round this time to throw up all over himself.

Yeah, it was by far the most intriguing final round in golf tourney since the '08 open. Though thanks to Charl's (prounounced "Sh-arl", wtf?) unbelievable final four holes it kind of fizzled at the end there. I was hoping for a multi-way playoff. Tiger should've been up there too but he missed some pretty stupid putts, especially that eagle on 15.

And yeah, lol at Rory, I had left the room for a couple minutes and came back to see him hitting from between two houses. Complete meltdown after that. His 10th hole looked like 75% of my holes when I play.

I would also like to hear from people that played in either of these events last year, regarding the general level of play and the tournament structure.

Didn't play in any other LHE events, but my 10k table was very soft and I think maybe one person other than me would be able to beat 3/6 online (especially when the young Asian guy switched tables). Alex Kravchenko was at my table too. Let me put it this way: Vanessa Rousso was in the top half skill-wise at my table. And she kept talking to me for some reason (sick brag amiright). It was weird. I ran horrible and lost, but I'm definitely gonna play it again.

I might sell some of my action too, we'll see how busto I am.

I, to this day, still do not get why people sell half or more of themselves in mtt's. I mean, I understand getting experience, or selling the main event (which I think is an awful idea since it's value is so good), but I mean in terms of pure $, selling half or more is bad, no?

idk, I'm just saying this off of a pro who ft'd wsop me and a big wpt same year, but he sold off half (+taxes) and now he is broke as a joke. Seems like the big scores (top 3) in ft's occur so rarely that it's supposed to compensate for all the bubbles+min cashes that you would want closer to 75% of yourself or moar.

Btw this a complex situation but from what I knew last year it could go either way. However from how unsuccessful the spending cuts were I am gonna have to start leaning towards inflation.

there's two sides to every trade... if everyone believed dalla's view the usd would already be toilet paper.

well, to clarify, there was maybe only 1 player at that table that I'd classify as a legit fish, but I really do think most/almost all of the table couldn't beat 3/6

also you know 8sup was in that tournament somewhere

I mean other than playing the tourneys for the experience, wouldn't the main point be to make a profit. And doesn't that lay in the top places? It's like splitting a lotto ticket; would have no effect on min cashes, but a big win would change your life more than chopping a big win, no?

Again I'd likely sell upwards of 40% of myself for the me, or any lhe events, but that's just because I believe they are crapshoots and would rather have the exp than the money (i'm sick).

We all know what you would do with that money.
