turn off your speakers?

Just turn off the damn sounds on "options"... I get rid of all the crap like the fireworks when you win a pot, stupid avatars etc... makes life much more bareable.

I like the avatars. I've got good reads on most of them

I decided to try out the new Party tables as well. I tend to like playing with loose aggressive players, because I can play pretty tight and just wait for very +EV spots.

I happened to get very lucky on only my second hand at a $600 NL table. The only thing I had to decide was how to extract the most money from my opponents. I think this is a circumstance where you MUST slowplay, since it gave the only chance for someone to make a second best hand. The only thing in question is my mind is how much to bet/raise on the turn, and possibly how to play the river.

SWEET!

That's the kind of hand that makes us all keep playing poker. Damn it all. Where else can you get that kind of high?


Nice pot, Jav. Can I borrow some money?
