he looks healthy...

+1, hate chair&desk combo so badly.

Running hooooot in 5/5 live. Up $40K in the past month.

Usually played with a $10 rock, so I guess it's not that amazing, but still feels good.

40k a month in live is a sick heater

grats mang

Definitely putting in the hours though - that sum is over 160 hours.

so 250 dollars an hour or like 100+ bb/100

Syous, did you hack the entire HEM system or dafuq? Couple of months ago my HEM basically showed only 2 hands on you in the HUD. Now you are the only player at the 6max tables without stats :O

Furtunately for you, Syous is a huge nitsky, so you don't really need stats.

jap, also way too expensive. you have to save your scrooge mcduck pile for retirement.

best to stand and grind

Can anyone recommend a good monitor? Or is there any reason to upgrade from 2x 30 inch Dell screens? I get annoyed lately as the screens become pretty warm after some hours. It's always been like that and I feel like they need to much energy overall.

So given they are probably 7 years old I thought about an upgrade as a friend of mine recommended the LG 34 curved monitor.

However, I am unsure whether its worth it or if there is a proper solution. I am especially worried that I will be forced to watch every movie on the whole 34 curved screen. Right now I am used to watch youtube on my right monitor, while I can still surf on the left.

I have 2 of these:

and a 30inch.

Dell is now overpriced imo. It was good couple of years ago, when there was not many choices regarding 30inch+ high res monitors. Nowadays its much easier to get the 4k displays. I also purchased a 4k laptop to go along with it, I can highly recommend

I also though about getting this curved display but at the end I decided not to because I felt something awkward with the resolution.

Does anyone else has the issue of the monitors heating too much? Mine are pretty old but i am sure they were getting warm since I have them.

From what I have heard the 4k monitors are not really useful for poker?

LED LCD displays don't put off heat like the old LCD technology do

I just went to a store to find out the difference. I don't know which monitors they had but all of them were heating quite a bit as well.

I have two of these right now:

Is that LCD or LED?

Another question:

I will try out the Steelcase Leap with the headrest. I really need a headrest and an not fully happy with the Embody. Would you guys recommend fabric or leather? I don't know which leather they are using for a chair. If it's really Nappa Leather, like in a car, it should be fine?!

As this turned in to an offtopic thread anyways...

Any of you also enjoying the stock market right now. There is an epic short squeeze going on. All the trash stocks that "for sure would go belly up" and which had short positions of like 30-40% are rocketing up. Shorts scrambling to buy back the shares as they keep getting margin calls. Some hedge funds are crying right now.

For example:

Last week 35c and bust, now trading 1.90
https://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=hk&ql=1
HK trading 40c last week, now 1.43

Seadrill trading 1.7 last week, now 5.4
CRC, last week 30c now 2.1
http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=CRC

Pretty epic. I don't have positions in any of these, just enjoying the sickness.

so many overrated players,its sick

insyder, its probably not at all worth it. those are pretty good monitors and unless you found a need for 4k or curve (think its cool but gimmicky) you arent gonna see a huge difference for the money. powerwise cant see numbers for the lg; its prob better but the time it would take to realize savings would be past your lifetime

Yeah, I think I will keep them. It is notable that the 30' actually cost almost twice as much as the curved 34'. I would guess the 30' are made for profesional use and therefore should also have better quality in the long run.

I would also guess they just stopped adjusting prices on old models, 1k could probably get you 2 4k monitors and that res is definitely an old "standard". Would agree quality also is down

Hey guys , i'm thinking of moving from Cyprus to Netherlands (Utrecht) since my brother is already there doing his master. If somebody could explain me what's the situation there with taxes and online poker (specifically pokerstars) and what do i need to open a bank account there i would appreciate it very much. thanks

Taxes; unclear. Looks like we are going to win and it's all tax free. But have to pay 29% on every winning month in the meantime. Can't deduct losses.
