Re: i guess we were kidding ourselves
If someone is willing to lead the discussion like UW Madtown I would certainly follow it to a new site.

The standard advice I have seen around here is to have a bankroll equal to 300 BB (big...

Re: Best computer programmes
I don't think you will find any software that will work with Pacific because you cannot get hand histories from them.

Re: Best place for .10/.20
One other thing about Pacific is the time it takes to clear any bonus you get.
Pacific requires you to bet 20 times the bonus amount in order to clear it. So for a $25 bonus you need to bet $500...

Re: First hand post, small/middle pair
Many thanks Peter.
Ok so I bet to see if someone would raise so I could fold.

Re: Help with hand converter
I did that already and included both the hand and what was coming out of the converter.

Guess I will try again.

Just picked up ITH today.
Looking forward to the discussions.
I'm very new so I don't know if I can contribute but will probably have questions.
