    Some geek points out a mistake that some writers of a show/comic/video game have overlooked in the style of comic book guy from the simpsons (minus the confidence and sarcasm).

    Show/comic/video game creators offer their thanks in the same way poker players do when saying 'nice hand man'.

    Geek goes home and sits waiting for the offers of sexual congress from the girlies to come roooollling in.

    The end.

            I don't think you understand the maths of Omaha if a) you think your opponent is a complete moron for how he played or 2) you got a horrible bad beat.

              In short no, but 50% r/b helps and just running somewhat good against fish makes it possible.... finally got that fish

                  you think him callin a 5 bet pf is good?
                  tell me how you would have played it against him? if he has KKxx he's not folding so what is wrong with my play -

                  FWIW i'm playing guys who have stats like 90+/85+/100+hands - these guys don't think, they pot pf and pot flop regardless if they hit or not, so what else do i do with AA - fold every flop?

                  Comment


                    what's wrong with calling 5 bet? You played the hand fine, but its only like 65-35. Embrace the variance. If you get annoyed about these hands then maybe PLO isnt for you

                      i suppose his play on the flop was standard as well?

                                      He shot 50k frames, that's what he shot in the field. He didn't say he processed 50k, there isn't 50k frames in the film for a start.
                                      Turns out he did apply the tilt shift in post rather than via a TS lens, this was so he could stablise in post. But he also used lightroom for post, lightroom can process multiple frames at once, so like I said he didn't have to go frame by frame for that effects. Although he did do some frame by frame stuff like rotoscoping in details.


                                      Here's one he did before, I like this better

                                        Blizzcon is the conference for Blizzard, the makers of World Of Warcraft. He was complaining that in the latest release of the game, a character's story wasn't consistent with one of the books. Talk about an ubernerd though. That was really impressive.

                                        Speaking of WoW, I'm thinking of loading up the game when the new expansion comes out and trying to be the first level 85 on my server. If I get it then I'll sell the account for $1k+ and give myself a bankroll boost.

                                                            Do you think you'd stand a chance? I was under the impression being the first to do something like that after a new expansion was usually carried out by teams and done in a pretty savage session. Is it not people like that Chiren guy do this kinda thing??

                                                            Surely you'd have a MUCH higher expectation than $1k if you prop betted on something like that if you thought you could realistically do it??

Getting it in pre would be much worse than calling the 5 bet. He has zero fold equity pre. He can get away from flops he totally misses. While I guess you will put it in on near if not 100% of flops.

                                                                                                                  Turns out he did apply the tilt shift in post rather than via a TS lens, this was so he could stablise in post. But he also used lightroom for post, lightroom can process multiple frames at once, so like I said he didn't have to go frame by frame for that effects. Although he did do some frame by frame stuff like rotoscoping in details.

                                                                                                                  obviously glad we got clarification on this in the end

Money isn't particularly important but I'd obvious prefer some cash rather than working for free!

                                                                                                                    Maybe this is a mad request; any interesting part-time jobs would probably be inundated with candidates...something like working part-time in a museum for minimum wage or helping out with a film festival or offering my marketing expertise to a worthy organisation, that's what I'm thinking of. Any thoughts welcome.
