Actually I did wonder about the Diamond status as well for a minute, but figured you played some higher stakes or something.

Anyway, nice wrap-up and I feel a bit lucky to have quite some free time despite playing poker and doing a master degree if I read your story.

I feel with you about the redline, it's the same for me at Ongame, but I decided I'm not going to look at it anymore and just keep reviewing my game like crazy.

Yo, man, you don't have to thank me about anything. It's my pleasure. The effort you put deserves respect. You keep your blog interesting and now that we face ourselves in the games, I even have few more reasons to stop by : ) Screw the red line, seriously! It's not like you are just starting off, make sure you play your best and check the line again after few k games :) I want to ask you a few questions regarding rb in betred, so please add me up.

upodated the wrap-up with the rakerace results :)

I'm off from tomorrow until monday evening, so this weekend's off from the grinding schedule. Because of that it is very unlikely that I can keep my 1st place in november as well, but that's okay :) Will see how much I can grind next week :)

seeyou guys on Tuesday!

:P should I aplogise? of course not I'm not sorry. I mean it must be bad but truth is I'm happy to win :) (obviously)

I just don't get it why he took it kinda for granted that he will win simply because he raked $170 the last day? The difference between us doesn't really matter, it's just a form of result-orientation in my opinion :)

anyway, I'm off. Traveled away. Tuesday, folks.

thanks :) long time no see :)

everyone takes it for granted that I'll become a pro except me, right? :f_biggrin: I need to improve my confidence tho. I want solid winning in 6max by the end of 2011. obv it sucks to put goals like that :)

anyway, I've had some vacation, I'm back now. Not much to update. Very tired atm, going to sleep soonish.

Seeya guys!

no details yet, just found the funds :) any advice is welcome. It will be mainly used for poker, planning on long run, need to run 2 monitors smoothly without a glitch + the usual stuff (client + HM + skype + teamviewer + possibly a TableNinja sort of program) smoothly. This isn't much but I want it to stay like that for the next couple of years.

Any suggestions?

I agree, but it's probably not such a good idea if you have no experience with it because you can screw quite some things up if you don't know what you are doing. (dunno if akrammon has exp tho)

Yep u can, I mean u have to have some "friend on the phone" if u dont understand it yourself. But u have someone like that it is a piece of cake, takes about 30 mins to put it together, 2 hours max for all the software and stuff...u get like 50% cheaper computer and what s most important is that u dont buy soemthing what u dont need or v.v. Built computers always have osme problem like graphic card u dont need or great processor but not enough memory, stupid added software, locked case so u cant add anything without certified service man and so on...

I buy the stuff myself (actually... order them from a broschure one by one ) then I'll have a family friend assemble it.

So yep, I could use some help, been a long time since I've checked any vga tests or anything, no idea what has good price/performance ratio.
