Day 71 and 72 Results - Good News. I got my monitors sorted  Cheesy

Here's what I did......

Filled the 3 gallon jug exactly to the top, poured it carefully into the 5 gallon jug. Then I filled the 3 gallon jug in the same way as before and poured it into the 5 gallon jug till it was full. This left me with exactly 1 gallon in the 3 gallon jug. I emptied the 5 gallon jug, then it was easy. Just put the 1 gallon into the now empty 5 galloner before refilling the 3 galloner one last time and poured it in again. This left me with precisely 4 gallons in the 5 gallon jug. Voila... My monitors then worked perfectly. Computetrs are easy.

I also switched back to my old graphics card and used the software Sherrif Fatman told me about, though I don't see how this could have helped.

Day 71 and 72 Results :
-$150 (+$10,347 total)
ROI : 8.8% (after 1,808 tournaments played)

Not really a result, but I don't care. My monitors are working again so......

tank is a happy camper today.

Playing more than 6 tables at once has probably got something to do with the red pen result today if I'm perfectly honest.
None of this 8/10 tabling for me anymore then (for now at least) it's 6 all the way home  Cheesy
 
Day 73 - Although I turn the chat facility off, I occasionally turn it back on for the last couple of games in a sesh. When I've just one or two tables running, it won't distract me much.
Tilting people can sometimes work well, not really my style though.

What if they're swearing at you, is it ok then? Yeah, of course it is, anyone who talks trash at the table is fair game. If they dish it oot then they can expect some back.
At a much classier level of course. I'm not going to cheapen myself by telling anyone where to stick it or what to suck you understand.

After moving in with A3s and being called by Queens, Mr. QQ was not a happy bunny to have lost the hand to runner-runner flush. He started venting his frustrations at the websites software and a couple of choice phrases directed at poor old tank here. I believe my mother was brought into the equation somewhere aswell  Shocked

He still had chips so I thought, right, lets get ya.
Told him that there was no such thing as bad beats, only bad losers. That worked ok but I needed a little more. Whats better at upsetting people than talking complete bollox. Get them too busy debating to play their cards.  Cheesy

Mr QQ was told of how A3s vs. "wired Queens" was virtually a coin flip so he shouldn't be so upset. 
..and similar such falsehoods.

Seemed to do the trick, he and his buddy seemed determined to prove how my loose agressive strategy was wrong and not proper poker. (The blinds were 300/600 by this point) How patience was the key and that a big fish such as myself was bound to lose eventually.
Talking such a loose game, no-one stole my blind for fear of being called. Isn't it great when that happens.
After all, you cannae bluff a muppet   Wink

Patience is indeed a virtue. Seemingly determined to not risk any possibility of getting their chips in with the worst of it, even with 600/1,200 blinds, they very patiently folded me 1st place. Thankyou very much  Cheesy

Was the last one of the slow session and put me in the black for the day so I was quite chuffed.

Day 73 Results : +$141 (+$10,488 total)
ROI : 8.6% (after 1,868 tournamentals)

A slow day is always better than a bad day.   Cool
