life is good
Ludrik, Jul 21 2009
Life is good. Back at uni after about a months holidays. Loving this semesters subjects so far. Lol only been about 4 hours stuff so far but w/e. Spent about 4 hours today hanging out with this israely chic I met a few weeks ago. She's got a boyfriend which is shit but I guess that's life.
I'm finally starting to get the hang of the rubrik's cube thanks to cubes guide over on tl.net. Did my first sub 4 minute solve today which i'm proud of.
Pokers been a bit mixed the last week or so. I'm down a couple of buyins over the last 3000 hands or so. But that's okay cos I feel like I've learnt a lot from it. My postflop play has improved a ton. Today was fairly solid. I was up about 2 buyins over 200ish hands. Then suckout after suckout kept coming. My favourite being this one.
I had just sat down at the table. I don't usually play pot limit and this was about the 3rd hand I'd been dealt. Just a small question. Should I have called or raised the initial bet on the flop against an unknown opponents? I'm not really sure wat gets the most value in this situation.

HEM vs PT?
Ludrik, Jul 11 2009
Hey everyone. I've been a long time lurker over at teamliquid now I figure I'll lurk around here for a while.
I've 2-tabling ftp for a couple of weeks now. I'm up about 15 bi so far. I used to play every now and then with mates and made quite a bit off them but they weren't exactly good. You could usually just be a bit agro and scare them out of all the pots they shouldn't have been playing.
So anyway i've decided to have a look at getting either HEM or PT. Just wondering which one people prefer. I'm downloading the HEM trial atm and will use that till the trial runs out. Then I'll switch over to PT for its trial.
Happy grinding
