I'd certainly drop that in favor of an i7 which is going to be used waywayway more often.
100% agree with this, buying 2 high end gaming cards only to run 3 monitors in 2D mode is ridiculous. Not only do you get better performance in the apps you actually use (read HEM/PostgreSQL) if you buy cheaper VGA cards and a better CPU like the i7, but you also generate a LOT less heat in your computer which means you can get away with less cooling-> less noise, and your parts will be more reliable in general because of the less heat (and as an added bonus, you save some pandas by not using a lot more electricity than you actually need/have much lower CO2 output. Not mentioning your electricity bill. I mean 2 high end graphics cards need a shitton of power you never actually put into good use without gaming).

God I hate Omaha 8, never in my ****ing life have I ever won more than a 1/4th pot in O8 when I have A278 on 349T. It is guaranteed to come offsuit Queen offsuit King for the loss.

it's just the gayest game played by the gayest people, including ****ing tournament asshats who get 100 billion dollar Stars contracts because they luckship a live tournament and wear backwards baseball caps with a permanent ****-eating grin on their stupid faces

I can't stop playing it because these massive idiots sonnybill and iuyt and people like this like it, but I am approximately 3 for 1,421 at showdown against both of them in my life. Yes please cap your 8thnut flush draw+2nd pair and 16th nut low draw because the board will come literally worst-worst for me at least 75% of the time and you will scoop with a ****** 2 pair and 65 low, stupid mother****ers.

Where do you play O8 with six cards on the board?

Hello:

My handle on Stars is DrArpadElo, and I need to be banned (permanently, if possible) from the 75/150 (and 30/60 and 50/100 would be fine as well) Omaha 8 or better (limit) tables. I can't use the requests-responsible gaming-restrict table limit method as I need to be able to play those limits in other games. I'm not sure if this is normally possible, but making an exception would be better for me AND for Stars, as my frustration in this game regularly leads to chat tilt (arguing and being angry in the chat box) which probably doesn't help the "environment" you are trying to cultivate. In fact, I have chat tilted at a couple of Team PokerStars Pros in the 75/150 Omaha 8, where people are surely watching. So it's a win-win.

Thanks, (name redacted)

Putting it at 4 to 1 against them honoring my request. These ****ing *******s (O8 players, not Stars) are never going to see another dollar from me.

Just over a 10k reward to anyone who sees you playing 08. That will be more amusing/effective than getting banned by stars.

that'd probably end up costing me 6 figures

AC was gross, angry-degen infested city prior to the recession. Can't imagine what a ******** it is now. Could be worth the trip if your outlook on life is getting too positive.

I didn't share any details about the episode or the season except that I didn't like it. If you guys see a rating about a movie, like 4 out of 5 stars, is that a spoiler? seriously, gtfo now
12-13-2010 , 12:59 PM
if i may play devil's advocate

you do agree with my opinion. so we're already 2 guys finding the season disappointing.

I've been playing mainly at Delaware Park. On Friday's and Saturdays there is always a 4/8 game going that is super soft. That's the highest that runs there. Every once in a while an 8/16 game goes, but that is rare.

I like the Borgata and everything but the limit games go from 3/6 to 10/20..and I don't have the role to play 10/20. I mean, I would probably be down to just run some 3/6 and get hammered.

no, thatpope is the devil (oxymoron?)

i agree with him that you should have put it in a spoiler

not that i want to stop talking about dexter at all
12-13-2010 , 01:08 PM
you guys don't know what a spoiler is
if you are affected by some random guy's opinion on a poker forum in your decison about watching the 5th series of a tvshow or not, then you have some serious decision making issues
12-13-2010 , 01:10 PM
Just stfu and AIM or PM each other.
