Anyone got the Iphone 7 yet? Im due an upgrade next month so trying to suss out the best deals about.

Looking a new Android phone for myself, guy in shop tried to push a wowee p9 quite heavily on me.

Too pushy so I ****ed him off.

Any recommendations that isn't a Samsung?

The actual answer is I googled for an IKTS money league and 2+2 came up. I did one with some know-nothing buddies and for like $10 each and they stopped doing it. Thread thought I was a shark or something so wouldn't let me participate that first year if I remember correctly. Stuck around and actually took a liking to the forum, which there are literally very few of that are palatable. There are enough people here to keep it busy but not too many people where it's hard to follow and the legit AIDS posters are few and far between (plenty of AIDS by 2+2 standards though. Had a solid bottom half finish in IKTS last season too and it doesn't even run anymore. So much for being a shark.

As I've said in the past I do truly enjoy this forum and this thread in particular as well as most of the people in it.

Yeah don't go anywhere near a shop. Annoying ****s.

Try mobiles.co.uk

So many factors have made the games less profitable; government legislation I.e the ring fencing of certain countries from the .com player base. Players from Eastern Europe and South America where the cost is living is far less than in the 1st world countries. Poker bots and other artificial intelligence programmes like game solvers, poker snowie, etc. The pure greed of poker operators, increasing rake and the reduction of rewards for regular play. I'm sure there are other factors that I've forgotten.

Oh and training sites

I bought a £10 throw-away a couple of months ago (travelling) - it was pretty decent, but I dropped it/knocked it off a table for the first time seriously on Tuesday and thedigitizer is now ****ed. ymmv

Poker bots, game solvers and whatever are just the next logical steps after huds.

Should never have been allowed, ffs they were against most sites t+c's from the beginning.

I was kinda mind blown at how well poker sites were treating winning players for so long tbh. If i was running a site I would try to run off all winning players and let the fish just pass the money around forever until the rake takes everything.

Poker was awesome made about 45k over a few years which made me a millionaire amongst young friends... but the thing i miss.. the thing i miss is going out for a cig break at 6am having not slept, hazily puffing away listening to the birds as you excitedly think about the final table you are about to head back to

ahh member berries gif

Marty,

Im sure you'll get more answers if you post your phone question in the android thread in OTT

I'm sure I would but I don't fancy engaging with the dregs of 2+2 society.

I gambled on Xiaomi phone from China or Hong Kong. £125 delivered.. things a beast for the money and its battery is insanely good

This one, screen is 720x1280 but its far better than 1080 that has to be on the minimum light setting because the battery is crap

Which sites were those? I seem to remember friends trying to log into FTP that evening and just seeing the FBI badge. FTP is a special case of course
I got into online poker really late and before 2011 I was still playing stuff like nl5 non-seriously, but sometimes I'd meet up with friends for an evening of drinking and grinding online. 8-16 tabling NL5 fullring from midnight CET we started open shoving JJ+ because that's when the yank fish started showing up, LOL

Ah, high school days

888 banned the yanks long before black Friday.

Site was **** afterwards.

Not just poker where winning players get treated like ****, on Betfair you have to pay premium charge if you meet a certain threshold of lifetime winnings. I have to pay 20% commission of all my profit but if you have lifetime earnings over £250k you have to pay 60%.

Robbing bastards.

Ta

If I can find it in a shop and have a feel I'd probably have one of those.

Not fussed on online shopping, I'm old. Mistakenly signed up for Amazon prime at £99 per year last time I tried.

Back in the days before BF, I would bumhunt those from Spain, Brazil, and Argentina. Terrible bluffers. Nothing was better than sending one to the rail and they would tell me in the chat box "you are gay"..then I would respond with a "jajajaja".

I am convinced there is a correlation between how good your country is in soccer with how bad your country is in poker..

Nah the US guys aren't that good at poker

lol @ 60%. Still, you don't pay any tax, I guess.

The poker solution to this is to multi-account - I assume they're all over that?

Ha give this a mis then moto g4 is supposed to be a decent phone might be worth a look at

Some macho cultures meant you had to bluff and only gehys ever folded.

Marty get that new google phone. Looks pretty good.

It's pre order at the moment but if you don't want to be awesome and get an iPhone 7(or 6/6s, 5s) that's is your best bet.

You were allowed to fold?

diane abbott: shadow home sec

She used to be my MP. ****.
