Cheers guys :f_love:

NL25 is going quite well at the moment! HM2 is being a pain again though, sometimes when I wrap up a session apparently I've played -10 hands or something ?(

But other than that things are going well!

Yeah I've already spoken to HM support and they think it's most likely a problem with the database itself rather than HM2 itself. I have no idea how that happened though but hopefully I'll be able to get it fixed up with their help soon.

another cash game blog to follow :)
Nice to see that you played mtt, is what I use to enjoy the best too,
my partner did not enjoy me playing for hours at an end, the thing I like about zoom cash games is how fast you can get tables up and down again ( so half an hour sessions are now an option) Also I hope that cash game experience will come in handy if I ever pick up mtt again

Gl and c ya at the zoom tables

ps: good luck with hud, had problems too few weeks ago, since it was a HM2 trail version I couldn't be bothered to try and fix it, so decided to take a break from hud thinking it might help me with standard gameplan
just bought PT4 a week ago and already am addicted to the HUD

The last Update of HEM2 was a pain in the arse for me aswell. Apparentely my (expired) virusscanner put 2 files, starscommunicator and blitz.dll or something like that in quarantine (false positive trojanhorse). And because my virusscanner was expired i couldn't get them out there, so i just deleted my entire virusscanner and reinstalled the last update of HEM2.

Works fine now. _biggrin:

Thanks :) And yes that's what I like about zoom a lot as well. Especially when I start uni again in september it just makes it a lot easier to plan and play your sessions.

Also yep it did that for me as well (the virus scanner thing). Managed to fix that as well but now everything else is completely fked :f_biggrin:

Been a while since I posted a poker update but that's also kinda tough with all the HM2 troubles and whatnot.

However, should I consider writing a book? I'm thinking about giving it a title like "How to improve your red line MASSIVELY with LITTLE EFFORT". How's that for a catchy title :rolleyes:

Poker Stars, $0.10/$0.25 No Limit Hold'em Cash, 6 Players
Poker Tools Powered By Holdem Manager - The Ultimate Poker Software Suite.

BTN: $24.45 (97.8 bb)
SB: $25 (100 bb)
BB: $50.57 (202.3 bb)
Hero (UTG): $25 (100 bb)
MP: $35.42 (141.7 bb)
CO: $48.85 (195.4 bb)

Preflop: Hero is UTG with Q Q
Hero raises to $0.75, 2 folds, BTN calls $0.75, 2 folds

Flop: ($1.85) 3 8 Q (2 players)
Hero bets $1.20, BTN raises to $2.40, Hero calls $1.20

Turn: ($6.65) K (2 players)
Hero checks, BTN bets $3.17, Hero calls $3.17

River: ($12.99) 9 (2 players)
Hero checks, BTN bets $12.41, Hero raises to $18.68 and is all-in, BTN folds

Results: $37.81 pot ($1.70 rake)
Final Board: 3 8 Q K 9
BTN mucked and lost (-$18.73 net)
Hero mucked Q Q and won $36.11 ($17.38 net)

I guess river pot bets aren't always the nuts then :f_love:

minraise flop often a fishy flush draw obv.

Nice effortlessly improved red line sir, nice. My red line looks like dripping blood onto the floor. :tongue:

That said, I did have the game running in the background as well but I missed 2 of the 4 goals because of the coaching :f_biggrin:

In amsterdam now for an intro day at uni. I have been waiting for more than anhour now for things to actually start...

I'm so damn fkn pissed right now!

The Xbox One got released here in the Netherlands last Friday. I pre-ordered it a few weeks ago with Forza 5 and FIFA 15 ( :megusta: ) for €400. So everything was awesome and great, my Xbox arrived last Friday. I then fired it up in the evening - broken. It made some stupid scratching sound even when the power cable was plugged in, but the Xbox was turned off. Dafuq is up with that?!

Uni and volleyball just started, so combined with work and all that jazz I'm very busy at the moment. So I finally found some spare time to head to the store and have it exchanged. After lots of testing and more testing they agreed that this wasn't normal, and I was able to change it for a new one (with the same games). Awesome!

So I fired it up again Monday evening and.. you guessed it! Same. Fkn. Shit.

Went back with it today after uni and they told me that this is a problem with basically all Xbox Ones released here. There are no problems with the ones released outside the Netherlands, but the majority of the ones released here have this problem.

But, they also said this is a hardware problem. It's also a problem that apparently doesn't harm the Xbox in any way, or any disks you put in it. So it was fine, I could just take it back and everything would be fine.

Hello? The thing is making a terrible noise and is therefore effectively broken! Am I supposed to just sit here and play games while it's making this crappy sound? It's not fine! I spent fkn €400 four weeks ago on a thing I expected to be able to play with last Friday!

I have other things to do though, so I just took it back with me to consider my options. But...

I could exchange it for a PS4 which is the same price. But wait! That's just the PS4, so I'd have to pay like €120+ to get those games with it!

So yeah, I'm pissed.

:rage: :rage: :rage: :rage: :rage: :rage: :rage: :rage: :rage: :rage: :rage:

Only just released there? That's a bit slow. ?(

So why is it only your ones that are faulty and not all of them? Job lot in a sale or what!
I certainly wouldn't pay for it in any state except perfect. I still have the 360 and was totally pissed that most of my original xbox games wont play on it. So much for backwards compatibility or whatever it is.

And anyway, you should be too damned busy to be playing xbox young man! Now, get yourself to school - and don't forget to put clean underpants on in case you get run over!
