if any of you are playing the mFTOPS remember to buy your tickets with FTPs. buying mFTOPS/FTOPS tickets with FTPs is by far the best value per FTP. Even better than black-card bonuses.

isn't using medals a better option ?

i think using medals might be better. havent checked because i dont have many at the moment lol

edit: just checked, looks like FTPs > medals for buying the tickets. someone might want to double check though.

Medals are better to buy tickets, because when you buy tickets at ironman store it does not effect rakeback.

Hero shows 7♣ K♣
(Pre 65%, Flop 15.5%, Turn 6.8%)

SB wins $1,280

I think we played perfectly all streets, except that... you should had folded pf Seriously, playing oop with 70bb against a slightly winner should be a very hard task to maintain a +EV spot. Feel free to argue

What are you repping with your 2-barrel? <3 mostly has showdown value when he checks such a dry board that he plans to c/c. Also if he knows you are a thinking player, it can be ok to 3-barrel imo, because he reps the hand he has, and both of you know the river Q is a bad card to barrel.

ok guys, i want a pokerstars avatar. taking all suggestions. will ship a reward to the winner. GO

Most fishy players have either
1) Crying baby
2) A dog

as avatar. I prefer the crying baby because it can be interpreted in several ways to make playing even more fun

crying baby = harassed father and occasional player. Problem is the regs will know you are a reg because you are always online and the fish probably don't read much into avatars anyway.

What about a nice picture of a builder's crack. Should be sufficiently insulting to induce some gentle spew...

Darvin Moon or Jamie Gold avatar might induce some spew imo. ♦

I much prefer having no avatar at all. Makes you more recognisable and easier to remember for the regs, people can easily identify you're on many of their tables, etc.

Maybe this?

Only pros don't have avatars. <3 is a mega-fish, he needs avatar.

/sarcasm

[Avatar] Three copies of an image of some classic idiot, like Homer Simpson, Dwight Schrute, or Lloyd Christmas (or all three of them!).

How about that durrr face that was in the pictures competition? Pretty cool IMO.
Don't know if stars will allow it

<3 I have to admit shame on me, I almost never read you blog anymore

So maybe my answer is obv in the last few pages...do you ever play the steps on FTP? I hear ppl saying how easy they are around the forums but I'm thinking these might just be fish who luckboxed a few....it could also be they are soft ATM because everyone wants to head to the world series, me included! You going to be there?

lol. you guys are so bad at this. I remember goorokyong posted an interesting pic of what he thought i looked like in my blog AGES ago.

I know you know that by yourself, so I m not sure if its neccessary for me to write it here n look like douche for doing so, but..
variance is bitch, dont get discouraged, put some more volume in it in drive it away!

btw.. This might be wierd..but.. I never read your name in the correct way..
I always just took a brief a look at it, thinking that Its something like

shame on you!

Ive played steps quite a bit in the past, I buy into step 4s, and cash out at step 5s. (I can use step 5 tickets for $216 9mans) they are indeed very soft. havent been playing them much lately though.

SCOOP/mFTOPS schedule. 10:00 = midnight where I am. weee

Lol, so you are going to live like a vampire during SCOOP?

Btw, I was thinking, how the hell are u able to get any kind of volume in after Black Friday? I mean u wake up in the late EU evening/close to midnight.. so is there still any traffic or do you just wake up fking early every day?

How much are you hoping to win during SCOOP? Ofc it'll vary alot but how much would you consider to be a nice amount?

yep, changing my sleep schedule to grind during the nights and sleep during the day for 2 weeks.

i get plenty of volume. im forced to play a lot of diff game types to keep my ABI high, but it seems to be going well so far. the traffic is ok, and im also mixing MTTs every day.

i want to ship something obv id like to ship a SCOOP-M event for my backers, would be so sick to have a huge FT rail with everyone that has a piece. but yeah i guess making more than $1k off these BIs is what I would like, but honestly ill be happy if i just play my best poker. Trying to save my run good for this.

heresy if you get a dota avatar

is it from dota?
