The worst part for me is the accounting as it's boring. For example, learning about the treatment of deferred tax liabilities and assets. Then having to know the difference between US GAAP treatment and IFRS treatment for both and be able to compare them.
Here's a good example of an ethics exam question (last one I promise ):
Quan Yang has terminated her professional relationship with Ten Peller Investments
(TPI) and has started her own hedge fund . Ms. Yang clearly served as an
independent contractor for TPI (working from her home) and had no agreement with
the firm with regard to solicitation of TPI clients or retention of client information.
After leaving TPI, Ms. Yang called several TPI clients using the contact information
sent to her by TPI and saved on her home computer. According to the Standards and
Practice, which of the following statements best summarized Ms. Yang’s duties to
TPI?
A. Since Ms. Yang was an independent contractor, not an employee, she is not
subject to the “Duties to Employers” section of the Standards of Practice.
B. Ms. Yang is subject to all of the provisions of the “Duties to Employers” but like
an employee is free to use the client contact information after leaving the firm.
C. Ms. Yang violated the standards by not erasing all client contact information from
her home computer when the relationship was terminated.One of these days I am either going to quit poker or learn how to play the damn game

Never mind if your parish team was a Junior club and you wanted to play Intermediate/Senior level

Tech guys help..
Obviously with Mr FD full time and both of playing the pokers etc we have the conflict of not being able to play some things like the old BCOOP and any big tourneys like the stakes one he was staking people for as he was playing himself as well as we both on the same connection.
Is there something we can do that would allow us to play on the same site safely? I never fire up boyles if he playing on it and the same with stars. Even though we don't play the same stakes I get paranoid about two laptops getting used on the same address.
Years ago I used to have a trial of a program called adwatch, I think it masked my ip address. I don't think the exact product is there now.
Would something like this help us? I don't really play as much poker these days because of the internet problem.

On the other side I think most players would understand where he's coming from. I've always said that a football career is a very short and fragile thing, and I don't see why it's any different to any other job. If the main competitor to my company offered me twice as much money to move there I'd be gone in a shot. In fact I've done it 3 times so far
Keane is right in saying that if the club was done with you, you'd be gone without too much fanfare. Players have to look out for number 1, and while it may not be the best idea to go around stating that you want to "be here for life" etc etc, we've all had moments where we've spoken in haste and repented at leisure.
It's obviously hugely disappointing as a fan, but more because what it represents for the club rather than losing a player as such. If he goes I genuinely hope he does well wherever he ends up, as long as it's not at Uniteds expense.Last edited by Iago; 19-10-10, 16:45.

We'd never be in the same cash games or STTs on ipoker
Christ even tell them ye met through cards and the Mrs is playing less now because of the IP thing
lots of players live in same houses/play the same sites with little or no problem
tell them, id imagine Stars would be well cool for a start and the lads at PP and Boyles would know ye through here so that should help
as for colluding, id imagine they cannot check up on the misses screaming "fold that hand or GTFO" from the next roomLast edited by Guest; 19-10-10, 17:07.

A certain mobile/home broadband provider are using Femtocells to boost carrier signal in areas such as yours. It creates a bubble of signal strength for subscribers numbers
It's being trialled at the minute.

This is pretty awesome!
Some guys built a Formula One racing simulator that’s like a lower-cost, home version of the CyberMotion Simulator. To more closely simulate driving a real F1 car, the seat tilts far back when accelerating (to mimic G-forces), tips forward when decelerating and braking, and bucks when shifting gears in the game."you raise, i kill you" El Tren :{)

On the rooney thing, I wouldn't necessarily feel sorry for him. He is set for life. He probably hasn't handled his personal problems very well which has affected him on the pitch. In his current form he's not worth very much at all. This could all blow over if he gets some form back and a nice run of goals. I wouldn't panic over it just yet.

What about Rooney going to Bayern Munich?
They're a club in the up, he should fit in there, and the press and fans won't give him any hassle compared to being in Italy, England or Spain. A few years where he just plays soccer and has less of the distractions off the pitch would do him wonders. Plus there is none of the politics involved that there could be if he goes to Madrid or city.

It should be played in a pitch black room really to make it more realistic for you, focus all your attention on the screen etc.
