That sucks. I lost $12 today so I know how you feel.



so far today playing .25/.50 i had maximum profit of 40 after those quads, but as of this point i am still up 33 right now so i came back after that loss to the quads, because i got a straight against the dude who got me with the quads

We need to get a wizard of Vegas online poker tournament going. There has to be some kind of site that is set up for private tournaments.

It would be nice if WOO/WOV/LBC added money to the prize pool.

Nope, a happy day in Tahoe living the “jaded”” life few understand. All good.

Flew to Vegas Sunday, limo ride to the Pioneer Saloon Monday for Veterans Day, hung out with Tom the owners son and a few friends. Flew back to PA Tuesday through Dallas on a late year mileage run to keep status. Worked Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, 48 hours. Rode the 505 AM from PHL through DFW to Reno yesterday and staying in Tahoe until a long ride back Wednesday.

Then 5 days of work and off to the Florida Keys for Thanksgiving and Eagles-Fins in Miami.

And then December.

Hard work always pays off. And always nasty toward those my “fair share” taxes support.

Still love you Axel, you probably should listen to the teachings of Max, lol.

You used to be able to have these on stars. I won the first RecPoker tournament. Little did I know that was my peak.

You still might be able to do this for play money, even if we are not in areas where cash is legal.

Or we all just put $1000 each into a 50-25-15-10 tournament and hope we are responsible enough to avoid collusion and get 15 members willing to play.

Sorry, but I don't accept play money for my counseling services.

Jaded is one of my favorite words, I have no idea why, but I have always liked it.

Does anyone know what the "chests" are about or/and the way to get best EV from them? I keep earning them but want to max them.

Im at a silver level and have gotten anything from cash (15, 10, 5 and under), the gold coins, which can be redeemed for cash rebates (every coin is a penny), and tournament tickets so far.

Nice little rebate. Do you find any advantage from waiting? I am playing .15/.30 and getting a couple a day. Low stakes but hey hey make a few bucks watching MASH reruns.

Has anyone in PA heard or found anything other than PokerStars? I am fed up with them. Their geo location is awful. When it does work lately I play 1-2 hands and it boots me out. Just awful.

My problem is that I can't stop putting money into it I've never seen something happen so quick in so many different ways. I realize why they have multiple different payment types now and it is not just because it allows a wider audience, its because the payment processors have limits as well that pokerstars doesn't control.

Waiting is bad because thats how the chest system is designed. You have to attain another chest by a specific time in order to move up, and recieve better benefits and more money, but if you dont attain the next chest you move down a level and are not able to potentially recieve better prizes when you get another chest. I assume once you get to the maximum level you stay at the same level but must continue to fill up the green bar or otherwise you will be demoted a level until you can get to the next level. Whew.

Near the airport but you might be onto something. Maybe there are multiple servers Verizon is sending me to. Something to troubleshoot.

I’ve heard of people calling and asking them if the paths they are taking to connect to the internet are routed within the state. You can also do a command on the command print on windows or shell in Linux - the command is

Tracert

You type that into that black box

Directly after you type tracert on the same line you put a URL and it can be anything.

So now we have

Tracert URL

Hit enter

For example

Tracert https://www.wizardofodds.com

and this should give you a list of HOPs that are in between you and the website you are querying.

You preferably want to do PokerStars because the path in between you and them is the path they are focusing on. The list of servers is your starting point where you can now view each place the packet is going to and if one of those hops is outside of the state you know why.

With the list of hops sever info you can google information about the servers essentially
