Full Tilt Disconnection Issues
I can't help but notice that all of you but Shane are out of US. Has to be a correlation...I have been on pretty much all day since March 1 and haven't had the problem. I would think if it was more widespread, you would see a lot more posts on it.

Charlie Sheen/Great Grinder
No I am not saying being strung out on blow makes you bipolar in the slightest. What I am saying is that he "is" bipolar period...the blow and everything else is secondary. Bipolar has a 83% chemical dependency addiction rate....with that said, majority of bipolar people are "dual diagnosed" meaning bipolar and some type of chemical addiction either drugs or alcohol. Majority of people that are bipolar are typically know to be more prone to addiction in general, and often struggle with all types of addiction. I am not saying beyond a doubt that he is bipolar and I can prove it. What I am ...

Charlie Sheen/Great Grinder
I got a kick out of this "trying to be..." This is my age kicking in, but brother Charlie has been a "rock star" for a very long time now. Most of you are too young to remember much about him but growing up in the family that he did, and when Full Metal Jacket exploded on the screens, he put himself in "Rock Star" category for life. Most of what is happening has been happening for a very long time...it's just all catching up with him "now." I have known he has been suffering from untreated bipolar for a very long time...in fact, his whole lifestyle and the way he acts is untreated ...

He is absolutely, without a shadow of doubt, inequitably, point blank, 100% bipolar, sadly, just not diagnosed! It breaks my heart about all the negative shit he is receiving and how I have yet to here a single person make this statement till just now. Absolutely not true and probably easier for someone who is bipolar to grind than a non bipolar person IMO

AP/UB Table shuffle
What does this mean' I have never had a problem cashing out on there, and in fact, find there methods of cash out easier than any of the other mainstream sites. I agree about the BB thing also being a problem. I complained some time ago about this to support and their response to me was, "all the sites do it this way..." Not really knowing if this was true for sure, I took their word for it.

Advice on HUD's for MTT grinders
You have to go inside "Player Preferences" then "Use for" and select the site you want to use it for. I would suggest once you have the layout set for one site, export it, and make multiple copies of it for each site. Reason is that you are going to have custom configure the way the HUD layout is for each site. If you select multiple sites, it won't layout properly for every site. So I have one made for each site, then name that layout either FT, Stars, etc... Another thing to check out when moving the components around to your liking is be aware that when moving HUD items on your table, if ...

Advice on HUD's for MTT grinders
I will give it a try in the morning. I will use revo unistaller to do a clean wipe and load it back up. I like using PT for reporting better anyway. I have HEM hooked to my hand history drive, moves them to a old hand history directory, then have PT hang off that directory and not move the files while importing. Like I said both apps have their ups and downs and I like to utilize both ;) I do think HEM is easier to setup for the total newb...they can just install it and go, where PT takes some more work to get it going.

FT ideas...
What do you think of these two ideas: * You know when you are working in windows explorer with multiple files and you can click one file, scroll down, hold down the shift key and click another file, and you will highlight all the files in-between also; or you can use the ctrl key and click multiple files that aren't in a row' Well what if you could do the same thing in the lobby for registering for multiple tourneys and then click a multi register button' * Currently for multi entry tourneys, the default entry amount is left to whatever the last tourney you registered for. So if you ...

Balancing poker and life and love
I feel for so many of you out there with families and/or wives/girlfriends....I really have no idea how you do it. I remember when Rizen had kids and the impact it had on his life with having to cut back. Not sure what your long term goals are, but I can only speak from my experience. This has been a long, difficult, painful trip. For me it was easy because I was just out of a divorce and no kids, but I realized something about this game...at least for me...I was going to have to give it 100% or nothing at all. In my late 20's I had some good friends of mine that were going to med school. I ...

Advice on HUD's for MTT grinders
I have participated in more threads about this subject than most people have combined posts everywhere. I am not going to have the great debate about this anymore. The only thing I can do is share my experience and you can take from it what you need... I started playing poker in 2003 during the great Moneymaker explosion. As soon as I got online playing, I heard the work "HUD" right out of the chute. I immediately (before I could even play poker) went out and got a HUD when PT was the only thing available in it's very early days. I took a backwards approach to poker in that I learned how to ...

So apparently Pokerstars put me on suicide watch
Not for nothing but I am going to play devils advocate here. I am looking at this from another perspective...what if you were serious and you "did" kill yourself and Stars did nothing about it' What would the posts in the forums look like then' What would we be saying in the forums about you and Stars role in things then' In real life, if you make a comment like, "I am going to kill myself (or harm someone else)..." there are real consequences as a result of your statement. You would be held by law (in most places) for a minimum of 72 hours on a suicide hold in psychiatric hospital. You ...

Multi Entries with infinite entries
You are correct. I am new to these and trying to understand it. Let me explain what was happening and that might help explain my question. The tourney I shipped last night I was CL most of the tourney. My other entrants didn't make it far, just the one so I didn't get the opportunity to merge. So as I was running deeper and watching the leaderboard, I kept wondering if and when some of these folks merge is it going to have an impact on my chip lead. I really had no idea what to expect. Does that make sense'

Advice on HUD's for MTT grinders
You know...this question has been rattling through my head for hours, over and over again. Since you put it in my head, I will tell you what has been rattling around upstairs about it... The reason I go out of my way on stuff like this is simple...I owe it to this place! I lurked for a long time on this place, then since the start of my exhistance I have been an absolute nightmare to the mods, some pros, and even other P5'ers when I have one of my "episodes." I probably have the career high for bans on the site. But you know what' They still let me keep coming back! I should of probably ...

Multi Entries with infinite entries
Anyone know when it's probably a safe point in the tourney to assume everyone has merged by now' I mean I guess you could go down the list and check who has multiple entries still, but I am wondering if there is a safe point in the tourney you can just mentally assume it's all been done by now.

LOL...not true ;) It is "equally" important for both.... i thought that is what we do in a community :) We help each other no' If you really want to make an adventure out of it, play with changing colors and setting color ranges for your stats...really helps pull you deeper in and understand the stat categories cause you will have to go out and find the ranges for each category ;)
