ok I finally gave up on pt3 and bought HEM....
02-11-2009 , 04:16 AM
Thanks guys.

I pretty much hang out now in reg thread.....its just too much to swing both major micro threads at once and still find time to play.

I am up ~$5k + 1k of unrealised rakeback for the year.
Which is pretty good start for my first six weeks officially full time. I just have to cut down on 100NL 6 Max and 200NL which both pwn my bankroll for $2k total....if but for that I would be rocking. The + side of shottaking is up $1k at 400NL.

Should be making my first big cashout in 6 months - not because I have flatmates like NonT but because I think I might finally deposit on sites other than stars and bonus whore over the next couple of months.

Cheers for the grats.
And thanks to everyone who helped me upto now.

I just downloaded it this weekend, and although I prefer it compared to PT3, it seems to lag my computer a bit. Have you noticed this or is it just my crappy laptop?
02-11-2009 , 07:19 AM
I noticed this and I have a quad core with gb's of ram at 1066...

I'm going to try it for the full trial period before I decide whether to buy or not. I definately prefer it, but don't know whether I can deal with the performance issue. I'm only playing 6-9 tables at the moment, but I'm worried about how it will deal with when I go back to playing 12+.
02-11-2009 , 07:35 AM
yea I am def buying it cause its the slightest bit of lag when i refresh on the main stats screen, my hud runs just fine...and I am 12 tabling at the moment
02-11-2009 , 07:50 AM
The problem I have is that I tile my tables with a bit of overlap, and it seems to lag a bit when swapping between tables. Not a massive problem, but just a bit annoying.
02-11-2009 , 07:54 AM
I stack, and no lag....with this computer if I had lag I would be surpised, its a beast.

It's probably just because I'm on a crappy 3-4 yr old laptop. I could really do with an upgrade, but I just can't bring myself to spend the money when I don't need it. This computer has sentimental value also as I bought it with the proceeds from my first live donkament +Ł1k score.

yea I got my new build with winnings in our dealer homegame. The comp was a little over 2k, obv that game is sick good (It doesnt run ne more cause the people who ran it got greedy. If I move out I think I am going to start having a homegame as well just like this). I also am not having any lag, I think its just a tiny bug in the program as when I filter the hands I am filtering for arent showing right away. When I click the window where the hands should be they all pop up.

Dear CaptVimes,

Sorry you cannot use a player to player transfer to take advantage of the deposit bonus.

god I miss neteller. Hell, I even miss Epassporte. Please over turn this stupid UIGEA thing.

So these combo draw things... you can hit them sometimes right?

In theory, but not me, or 4 to the flush draws on the flop.

I had a combo draw at a live game last week, we got it all in, I flipped over my cards and announced my combo draw only to find out that I had one heart and one diamond and of course the flush card comes on the river but doesn't help me.

Get better lights imo... reminds me of the day I open folded top set on a monochrome board in a live tournament against a crai. Villain looks at me and says: Uhm, that's the nuts. Turns out there were two clubs and a spade on the board.

That place sure was badly lit And yes, my tournament strategy has improved since I hope.
