    I'm trying to come up w/some ideas for creating an office to play poker in. Post in here anything you think would be essential for your personal poker room set up (i.e. chairs/monitors/computers/desks/tvs/mice/kegerators/swedish masseuses/etc) .

    The first item I'd like to have (no more hand cramps):

    This is something any serious poker player would enjoy. Dual monitors would be wicked.

    i decided i didnt like that mouse although i loved it at 1st.

    i have 2 although 1 is a bit fucked up, and i went back to a cheap standard optical mouse with a wire.

    What made you dislike this mouse? I felt one up at a Best Buy and I thought I was in love.

    sometimes it would just spaz out and i would lose control,and a lot of time stuff would get stuck in the bottom and make not wanna go 1 direction, easy to fix usually by blowing in it (maybe they fixed this in newer versions). and i would have to resinc to blue tooth alot with the 1st one (nvr had to with 2nd one but i didnt use it long).

    and i would forget to charge battery sometimes. but i had a backup wired mouse in case i had any probs, which broke and i got a new back up and liked it better, and just made it my main mouse (which is microsoft comfort optical mouse 3000 from walmart).

    going over to the other pc i hate how big it feels compared to mine but im not used to it anymore. and im not sure but i think the software for it was messing up my pc at one point, but think that was fixed in an update.

    you may like it, i just didnt.

    how is this helpful to this specific thread?

    And this is an amazing mouse, it has some new tracking technology so you can use the mouse on carpet, hardwood, granite, basically anywhere that optical mouses dont....its expensive for a mouse but hella worth it

    I think the chair is the most underrated component of a setup. A nice monitor is obv #1, but 2nd place goes to a decent chair. $150-$200 should do the yob at your local staples store.
