can someone link me to one of those all-in luck analyzers or EV calculators or whatever? I've run so rediculously bad on ftp and just wanna see what it looks like. I searched the software forum (for real!) and didn't find a damn thing. Thanks.

I used to chat with ludi all the time but basically took jan-may off from poker and lost all his contact info. Thinking of going to vegas to root him on, anyone know how to contact him?

I just found out that pre registration is closed for the ME. Is there any chance that if I show up on the 5th(day 1c) that I won't be able to get in on day 1d?

Thanks doom...this is my first time doing one of these things

so youre supposed to be down 4k, and youre down 8k?

not that bad imo....youre sklansky bucks arent even above break even

The graph doesn't reveal coolers and setups.

I registered yesterday, so pre registration is most certainly not closed.

wouldn't this be a example of that, with a huge difference between showdown winnings and total winnings?

esurance.com

not sure if its the best deal or w/e

This graph would be an example of an FGators clone.

i think he means pre-reg online, which did just close recently. i think u have to register in person now.

adam- not sure if you can register for other day 1s after day 1a begins. probably says somewhere on the wsop website, or u can prolly just call them

does that mean i'm getting it in bad or playing badly?

No, this is just playing bad.

You could be forced to continually having to give up hands pre showdown. But that doesn't really hold for such a hand sample.

The difference between showdown and non-showdown can be ascribed to style and doesn't HAVE to be weak-bad fgators syndrome; but for the sake of balancing theoretically it's better to not have them too far apart; and generally you can sacrifice showdown for MORE non-showdown, up to a certain point. But it's hard to say in a vacuum and I'm sure many people do it in the wrong way and sacrifice MORE showdown for non-showdown.

It depends on the stakes, opponents, etc, a lot as well. At lower stakes you want to bluff less against fish and more against nits, and at higher stakes you get more sophisticated bluffing lines (c/r river, etc).

So yeah.. the graphs can help you understand your style and where you MIGHT change things; but winrate is really all that matters.

I've pretty much flopped the nuts every hand you played against me

Richard "nutsinho" lyndaker is final 4 of the 5k 6max event... gogogogo

Can someone please tell me why everyone hates UB? I'm not saying I like UB but I don't think I quite know why they are so hated.

sorry to bother but do you think you could provide an example of both? I tried to fix my leaks via pEV..I played w/the filters and whatnot...and in the end I started to spew too much money!

= (

i don't hate UB, i just don't trust them. that and they do nothing to respond to disconnect protect abuse.

the games there are actually pretty unreal but i'm not willing to play there given all else

Yes this is what I meant.

I called the WSOP number and when I asked if I could reg on the 5th he said "probably" or something like that. Which I took to mean as long as its not sold out. I'll call back to clarify. What's the odds of day 1d selling out? or is there even a limited number of tables?

Let's say you never turn showdown-value into a bluff; that could be a spot where you could gain non-showdown moreso than you're losing showdown, simply because you're finding a profitable bluff spot.

An example of the opposite would be cold-4-bet-bluffing preflop every single opportunity. This is not profitable and your non-showdown will suffer big losses.

Spewing money the right way is a very tricky thing; which is evidenced by plays you see at higher stakes by very good players, but that you don't see yourself doing.

At least.. that's my theory..

To anyone that plays on UB: What is their cashout situation like?

ub cashouts are some of the fastest and most reliable of any site that ive used.

checks come in 2-3 days from being approved and wires take 1-2 weeks at most.
