I'll do this right now at .5/1. Play every hand or no? Some one give me a pf chart for manic play and we'll see how long it takes me to lose $25. I'll stay at the table 2 orbits or until I've lost it all. [/ QUOTE ] I'll do this as well tonight, should be interesting |

Re: Complete maniac on Party (no content)
He's a character in a book by Jack Vance. When I was creating an online poker account I just grabbed the book and kept trying names until I found an original one. Now I use it on all accounts and forums since I've never seen anyone else use it.
Edit: I just googled it and the only results were to posts I've made in online forums or my delicious account. Upon closer inspection it might not be such a good idea to use the same name in more than one place. |

Re: Complete maniac on Party (no content)
Aight. Played 2 orbits, up $5.63.
I had a modified LAG style. I check/raised once, and I did slow down once or twice when I had zero folding equity, zero showdown value, and it was very clear that I was beat. But still up 5.63 BBs in 20 hands is not bad. Party Poker 0.5/1 Hold'em (9 handed) converter Preflop: Hero is MP1 with A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].

Re: Complete maniac on Party (no content)
One thing I'll occasionally see is somebody sits down at a table, and proceeds to play like a maniac for about 10 hands or so. After showing down a winning 96o or T2s once or twice, they will revert to half-way decent micro play.
I thought that was an interesting technique as well, although it's quite easy to note to transition back into "normal" play. |

Re: Complete maniac on Party (no content)
Jack Vance is one of my favourite SF/Fantasy writers. He's often cited for his excellent use of vocabulary. The book I was referencing was Cugel the Clever. It details the adventures of a Cugel, a man who thinks he is a lot smarter than he is. Very funny stuff. Even if you're not into the genre I would recommend it.
Seriously, when my post regarding engagement rings showed up my heart skipped a beat. Then I remembered that my girlfriend only uses computers to check her hotmail account. |

No offense on my poor sarcasm and poor English. Mercantides -ides means "the son of (or descendent of)". Like: "Kronides" is the son of "Kronus" or "Atreides" (like Achiles) is the son of "Atreus". "Mercant" is latin I guess. Merchant? Well it's your turn now. |
