meth/weed/coke obv. not gonnna "help" your poker game and not all that interesting of a discussion, I recall paul phillips writing about using ADHD medication to enhance his play however. I believe it was a slate article, if anyone could find the link that could make for some good a forumin'

quick headup to all who might care, stars is doing a wcoop format tourny in two hours, capping it at 1100 though so get in if yah wanna do it

After reviewing my game noticed that the only seats im losing money in is the blinds, naturally this makes alot of sense but Im curious if anyone is showing a profit (from the sb at least, but I could be awful at playing both) from the blinds and if so how do you approach them? (IE defend liberally ect.) All input is apprechiated but currently interested in 3-6 through 10-20 full tables.thanks

UB is a cool enough site... but with a feature as awesome as miniview why cap people at 3 tables?! I could 10 table easy with this feature... oh well

headup sng's can profitable, headup cashgames are brutal though, played some on UB, generally if two sit down with 50 one will be broke and one will have 70-75

of course if your really stuggling getting called you could push once or twice from position with 49o for example and show it... people will fall for it!

wouldnt it be more prudent to make a bet of 1/3 of your stack with AA/KK and then autopush any flop? seems like this also negates any hope of anyone actually getting outplayed and seems like it can generate a wider range of second best hands coming along for the ride...

get the 8000 point chipset from pokerstars for christ sake... the chips and cards are of bearable quality and only costs as much as 8 copies of holdem poker by Gary Carson

thanks for all the imput, sorry you thought 55 was JJ, woulda been a quaint pot smash... I it could really have been you though, some player at the table was named HaroKitty, from here on out Ill assume the worst when playing with him.

This is from memory, sorry no converter tool....1.Folds to me on button with Kh10h, I openSB 3 bets, BB folds, I call, flop 9h, Jd, 3d...SB bets, I raise, SB 3 bets I?2.(called) turn 3h SB bets, I callRiver 10s SB checks, I?

Sooo... throw in Limit Omaha/8, PLO, PLO/8, Stud, Stud/8 and blackjack single deck card counting....and a question for smash,as a player who by your definition sucks, how does one crush a tournament late into it... or is that why they are for suckers?

Actually the lack of a time bank is probably the sites greatest feature... cuts down on stalling quite a bit in tournaments

While I see smash is going to a grand via limit holdem I doubt full limit ring games are the fastest means one can generate a healthy bankroll...I pose the question what game would yeild the quickest returns and pose the fastest advancement for a player who can "crush" the game.Personally I have gone from 50 to 400 in days playing the 4 player headup shootouts on stars, just wondering about others experience and theories
