Ha! Didn't need the geek squad! Don't want to bore everyone with the detailed technical description of Hafler amps and the two hours I spent debugging them, but suffice it to say the Transnova's have a little switch on the front with a green light. If you click it the wrong direction nothing happens, no matter how many times you click it back and forth. You can shimmy on your back inside the rack and try plugging/unplugging each inidvidually to the power supply, reset the fuse, adjust the power supply remote settings, adjust the delay settings, etc, and none of that will work either.

But if after two hours your wife clicks the little switch in the other direction, the little green light turns on and you will be instantly enveloped by a cascade of sound from your surround sound speakers.

Now I just have to figure out where that low frequency hum in the speakers comes from. Geek Squad?

meh.. this is a daily occurance..lol

is "all of them" an acceptable answer?
02-10-2010 , 08:09 PM
Reminder

I don't think you missed all of them; I don't like raising before the flop.
02-10-2010 , 08:10 PM
I hope Bravos laughed out loud when you tabled your hand.

"A jack and a nine on the flop. No one's gonna call if I raise, but overcards will definitely fire again."

How about here?

I raise AJ in HJ. Youngish decent CO calls, SB and BB call.

Flop: T83. Checks to me, I bet, CO raises, SB cold calls, I just call.

Turn: 7. Checks to CO who bets, SB calls, I raise, CO 3-bets, SB folds, I just call.

River 2. I donk, he calls.
02-10-2010 , 11:24 PM
In my defense bravos1 and I joked about back 3-betting capping preflop to make a big pot and he said he'll just make it a big pot on the turn.

Hence the attempted turn c/r. I did bet the river though

Just for my Arizona friend Tom...I read Mr. Cooke's article about you for the 3rd and final time today at lunch...reason I read it three times.

I pick up Cardplayers and skim through them, usually reading anything that looks interesting, which was this article.

Then it was posted here that you were in his article, so I went and found it and read it again.

Then today I finally got around to my July issue of Cardplayer (yes I am backlogged about 6 months, I read 6 of them on the cruise and airline trip to Miami last month) and read it today.

So yeah.

Sanity check please!

I raise KcKs in EP and go to the flop 7 handed.

Flop: JhJc8h
I bet, idiot #1 calls, idiot #2 calls, idiot #3 raises, I call, #1 backraises, #2 calls, #3 caps, we all call.

Turn 8c:
Checks through, lolol

River 8s
I check, idiot #1 bets, #2 calls, #3 calls

DOES ANYONE OVERCALL HERE??????????

Edit: just won a 22BB pot on my btn with T8o... I guess I can't complain too much

Wow, I would have to have good reads on all players to overcall. I mean one of them could be playing the board, and the other could be bluffing, but all 3?
02-11-2010 , 12:41 AM
#1 thinks he is a pro, but is way too loose preflop and overly creative postflop at times (last week he 4bet the turn for a free showdown)

#2 raised the flop and 3 bet the turn against me with a straight/flush draw.. and got there

#3 I haven't played with before, but he is asian and almost certainly being backed by his girlfriend who is one of the worst LHE players in the known universe
02-11-2010 , 01:27 AM
are you playing like 3/6 or something bremen?
02-11-2010 , 01:35 AM
The worst part of my life is watching clippers games in vegas and seeing commerce commercials that literally make me lol because of how hilariously they portray it. Then I cry cuz of how bad I want to be at commerce.

Why did you call two more cold on the flop if you're gonna fold the river?

Edit: If I somehow managed to get to the river, I would bet/fold.
