Ive never had problems with the internet at TS when we set up our own routers. But since there is wireless everywhere there now I don't know how stable it is.

lol i try to do this and then one of two things happens

1. i find a way to get buy-ins for tournaments, end up playing for 5+ hours and i either get knocked out making a stupid mistake or justttttt make the money after playing for 10hrs and dont even make double my buy-in. so im either too fatigued to play my A game or i keep pondering on the only mistake i made all day and play bad because of it.

2. i get there and see all of the high roller 2+2ers running around and i constantly think to myself 'why didnt i study up on poker so much sooner' and 'i cant believe ive never played online' and my jealousy of you guys (not a bad jealousy i dont hate anyone lol) sends me on such a ******* lifetilt you wouldnt believe.

so hopefully this time at TS the 10k+ hands ive put in online for the first time+the studying of mtt theory+all the MTTs ive been playing sharpening my skills hopefully comes to fruition this time around

I went last month without a router and I got disconnected once for about 15 minutes when I was deep in a couple MTTs online. After that, there was no problems but it sucked at the time.

I would watch this for the hilarity...to set a line you'd need some stats.

And no I wouldn't want to fight...I fluctuate between 125-135 lbs and would be mincemeat against anyone. I'm also not the type of Asian that knows any martial arts.


To answer the question, there's probably not any gyms or anything, it is upstate NY after all. Although you could google it, and maybe you would drive all the way to Albany?
