Ah, yes, I see now. If you can't download it, find somebody who has an external CD drive and borrow that.

Bought a new printer, but my CD drive has not worked in over a year...am I unable to hook up the printer without getting this fixed (because that would mean no poker while it's in the 'shop')?

Dear The Shrog,

I have recently heard of this thing called "the internet". On it there are things called "drivers" that before "the internet" were only found on media like "CD-ROMs". To get theses "drivers" from "the internet" you use a "web browser" to access a "URL". "URLs" look like this: http://www.iamanidiot.com. To solve your current issue, use your "web browser" to navigate to a "URL" like http://www.hp.com or http://www.canon.com and search for your specific printer. Alternately you can use a "search engine" like http://www.google.com " to find your specific "driver".

Good luck and drop me an "email (electronic mail)" if you have any further questions.

:D

So, I played a live tournament last night and had to very anti climatic hands.

First one, Look down at pocket aces and get it all in on the flop against two other players. First guy flips over pocket Kings and I'm like "SWEET." Second guy flipped over Pocket Aces also. The only thing that would have made the hand better would be if he spiked a King.

Then a few minutes later and the exact same thing happened. Minus the guy with Kings.

What are the odds that I am involved in to AA vs AA hands in a matter of minutes?

So I'm finally going to be deposed as what I assume a character witness to my deceased friend Kevin in the civil lawsuit against the guy driving the other car. Unfortunately, he plead no contest in a plea deal which apparently means he gets 2 years in prison, but leniency in civil court, which makes no ****ing sense at all. Criminal court and civil court in a case like this should have nothing to do with each other imo, but whatever. I received the subpoena today, and I go in on October 1st

gl man. i'd imagine it sucks to have to testify, digging up old memories and such, but it'll probably feel better once you've gotten it over with

aghaghgahrahrhgh. So not only have I sucked at poker for the last three weeks, today, my bankroll will be whittled from the 170 it stands at down to about 75 due to the whole e-checks fiasco.

My brothers e checks was used on my account for $100 and apparently (he just told me) that the money was never taken from his bank, so PS emailed me today saying that I could either give them a bank account to debit 9which probably won't work because I'm American) or more easily just let them take it back out of my Stars account, which I'm going to have to let them do.

This sucks :(

You can echeck deposit on stars from the USA. That is how I fund my account.

Echecks are working again? I never heard any updates on the situation. But either way that's not an option. It's either PS account or a bank account.

My hands were like 90% favourites on the turn when my money had gone in twice this week leading tournaments on the final table. Ended 5th in both of the 180 seats tourneys. Miracle cards for the other players. But first is still not so much.

When you say Big Win- How much are we talking?

For me a big win is around $2000. For most Americans a big win is upwards of 10K I think.

I noticed that you have a Harrington Volume one thread, but it went dead at the second section. Any thoughts of getting it going again?

A big win for me would be over about $1000 - though I really want to beat my best which is a little under $1600.

I can't revive that thread because I have a lot of difficulty concentrating to read so can't keep up with it. Though I am half way through Elements of Poker right now so might finish my first book in years soon lol.
