Pokercharts.com?

Anybody use pokercharts.com to record play data? If so, any thoughts? I just started using it... seems convenient... problem is, what happens if the site goes away? All your data is lost?

Re: Card Patterns in Online Poker

When you say "wash" you mean when the dealer spreads the cards out on the table and *cough* randomly moves them around?

Re: Card Patterns in Online Poker

Re: Should I bet?

Let's make the (correct) assumption that I don't NEED the money. I.e., I can lose the $1,300 and $2,000 comfortably. I just want to make a positive EV trade.

Re: Odds to flop a draw?

I thought that a 4-straight meant that of any 5-card completed straight hand, you have 4 cards already. regardless of the number of outs.

So, with a single gutshot straight, you already have 4...
