well i intentionally show my silver star hoping it would under-rep me

I probably give what few SN's I see more respect than they deserve.

FWIW.

if they played enough hands => lose money => realize they are bad => try to improve =>rinse repeat => eventually reach SN=> at least be mediocre at poker => my assumption for all SN's
its definitely not enjoyable to grind many hands and then to lose money, so cant imagine a rec player would be doing it

i guess there are ones that keep playing keep losing and keeps on playing

w/e's dont care how good they are, just f'ing annoying to see like $82.45 stacks on 12 tables at 200plo

bad assumptions imo, most people like to play and have little interest in working to get better

IMO, better would be to use Hypersimple theme in PS and then make an all-black gif/jpeg in MSPaint or whatever and then save that as the background file.

The average supernova/SNE has a better idea what he/she is doing than the average player that isn't SN+, it's just that the average SN that doesn't show the VIP stars is a lot better than the average SN that does, which in turn alters your perception of how good most SN players are.

quoted for the lulz hehe

i use the raven them for table ninja use, but a month or two ago the auto bet sizing for TN stopped working because the pot size at the top of the screen was "blocked" or w/e, so i had to use some black background with that gay light blue at the top that another 2p2er created for TN to recognize the pot size. tried taking it off recently and the problem persisted... doesn't bother me that much

if you're playing +PLO50, you should be able to hit SN by end of year

my HEM shows
0.34vpp/hand at PLO50 over 33k sample
0.22vpp/hand at PLO25 over 37k sample

check out roy's blog, i'm sure he has more detailed/accurate vpp/hand calcs iirc

Please send the $xxxx transfer to xxxxxx
His name is xxxxxxx from xxxxxxx, Texas
He is a big time baller cow farmer worth a ton of money.
He plays in a big home game with me in which I have a great reputation for being upfront and honest and always trustworthy in financial dealings. You are making me look bad as I told him the money would be there and he has already paid me.
Please give me the courtesy of at least responding to me as I know you have gotten my previous 3 emails. I play at stars cause your support/staff/security is the best! Three emails and not even a generalized response is what full tilt does You are better than that!!!!

    you're playing 1/2 aren't you? with your volume you'll make it no problem.

    djrosemd, his current level doesn't matter when it comes to how fast/soon he can make SN. multiplier only applies to how many fpp's he makes.
