Huh. I had no idea I could do that.

So in other words, if I win the 50 FTP Sat to $750k satellite -- which costs 2,500 FTP to enter directly -- I can de-register and pocket the 2,500 FTP?

(1) Download and install Autohotkey.

(2) Right-click desktop (or whatever location on your disk), choose New > Autohotkey Script.
(2a) Rename the new script from "New AutoHotkey Script.ahk" to "Your Choice of Name.ahk". Don't forget the ".ahk"!

(3) Right-click file, choose Edit Script.

(4) Paste in whatever script, save and close.

(5) Double-click file to run script.

There are a bunch of good scripts here:

If you need anything else, look in the software forum, or you can ask again here.
I think it is pretty straightforward.

Does IMSAKIDD really say "CHOO CHOO" in the chat everytime he doubles and leaves? Or is that just an urban myth?

Dont think this question deserves to be in the thread "official dumb questions thread" lol but whatever. I'm no longer a DC member so maybe there are better videos on there now, but I think IWEARGOGGLES had a few good mtt videos on there last time I checked.

The top post in that thread doesn't answer the question, but describes a proposed change that never came to pass. You have to read through a whole lot of stuff about playing Werewolf before you find the real answer. It's not a short thread.

It means some has a very strong hand or a very weak hand and nothing in between.

For example, when someone bets in the river in position, they typically have a polarized range. They'll bet their best hands for value, bet their worst hands as a bluff, and check mediocre hands.

1 quick question, how can I effectively get more "pots won without showdown" stat higher? I have +$35 overall, +$37 in showdown winnings, but -$2 in pots won without showdown. Is that normal? I'll try to get the graph posted if this doesn't make sense.
