lol at that video... he starts talking about online poker with a 1.2 million hand sample... then goes on to suggest there is no bias in his theory since he's played about as many live hands as online. At say 20 hands an hour live? that's about 2500 days straight playing 24 hours a day.

Obviously no one on here would do more than laugh at it but it might spread.

I think he is saying that the underpair is 11% underdog according to his 1.2million hands DB of online poker and that its far off from actual mathematical value.

why xmaxxmeisterx playing HS these days? thought he was a slight winner at 200nl?

I hope this answers your question

Lol, so is he saying that his Pokertracker is rigged too in showing incorrect AI values? Maybe it is all part of a big consipracy, got you now. He obviously then proceeds in saying that underpairs are a virtual coinflip vs overpairs over his sample. Thanks for opening my eyes, think I will proceed with 4b/calling 22 from any position from now on.

Made it to 50k hands at NL and still find the game fun. Although hit a slight oil patch the last 7k hands or so. Not concerned just a bit of added variance sine I now refuse to fold KK pre and am always raising it or repoping it under all circumstances. I swear there is room for a fold there... but I'll try it out for another week or so.

For me finding a fun variation of poker is the key to keep me grinding.

anybody know how to delete all of your stars notes?
05-03-2013 , 12:42 PM
There is a notes file in your pokerstars folder under user sub folder I think. Just navigate to that using explorer and delete the file.
05-03-2013 , 12:48 PM
Thanks

Try uninstalling it without backing up. Found that one out the hard way.



Otherwise, click help on the stars client and select "open my settings folder". Should be as simple as deleting the file "notes.screenname".

Just checked - go into stars client, under menu bar select Options>Player Notes.

Under there click "file location" button at bottom, and then click "open folder".

Then find the file that says notes.screenname.xml, now right click on that file and select "edit". Once the file has opened up in notepad, hit CTRL+A to select everything in that file, then hit delete. Then just save the file with no text in it. That should remove all notes.
05-03-2013 , 01:23 PM
Or just rename the file in case you decide you want the notes back

So many 40bb stacks on today. I ended up playing 3,200 hands and had a VPP/hand of .12! Usually end up with .23-.24.

I'm thinking of avoiding weekend nights around this time altogether, as it seems to be the time where they are on the heaviest. Would rather play of peak times with less fish if it means less 40bb stacks.

I need Meleab to make a June 30th avatar so I can play with that instead

thats a really really disgusting vpp/h top end.

also, durrrr challenge is on right now if anybody gives a ****. if you hurry and open FTP you might even get to see some hands before they quit

Have you tried exercising some?
05-07-2013 , 03:40 AM
Try to stay up all day/night and go to bed around midnight. That is the best way to fix it.
