World Series of Poker Main Event


Main Event - $10000 No Limit Hold 'Em Part 3
Main Event - $10000 No Limit Hold 'Em Part 4

This is episodes 3 and 4 of the WSOP main event which is torrents 23 and 24.

Episode 3 is great as it features Phil Hellmuth for a large part of it with some amazingly hilarious outbursts and antics. That guy is pure gold. The coverage of the main event is far superior to any of those bracelet events, better atmosphere and more meaningful coverage from the early parts of the tournament.

There was also two torrents released for the latest episodes of the Poker Superstars tournament. They are down to the last 16 in this one with 4 handed tables, these two torrents feature David Sklansky, Huck Seed, Johnny Chan and Mike Sexton battling it out. David Sklansky is amazingly arrogant in his interview, claiming to easily be one of the top 5 poker players in the world.

I lost my Dual Screen set-up yesterday as one of my screens broke so back to single monitor for a week until the new one arrives. Really sucks to go back to one monitor =)

thx for the torrent links..

i think it's best to use just one big monitor.. do you suppose that 9 tables with minimal overlapping is possible with 24" LCD monitor?

i ordered a dell 24 inch lcd, to replace my current dual 19" sony CRTs. I only use the 19 inch when 8 tabling or more. Usually I play 6 tables on one of the monitors and leave the otehr one turned off.

what do you think is the minimum size required for 9 tables with no overlap? 26 inch? what resolution.. i'd be very interested in one of those

1)how does ure tft broke tiller?

2)
@r3v Size is not everything ^^
Look at the max resolution, too.

For example if u have a 24' but 1024*768 u see big tables but not many of them.

TfTs have a fixed resolution, u cant change it.

I dont know it broke, screen went grey then black ins 2 seconds. I guess whatever puts image to screen broke =) Green light still comes on.

3200*2400 resolution you need for exactly 8 poker windows with zero overlapping.

I don't even know if you can get that resolution, never looked into it.

never saw a screen with such a resolution... 2000*x is available

but u dont need 3200*2400

check it out 3200*2400 = 7680000 pix

4 table screen with 1600*1200 = 1920000 pix
1920000 / 4 = 480000 per table

480000 * 8 = 3840000 pixels needed u can get 16 tables at a 3200*2400

u have alot of possibilities

3200 * 1200

or something between
1600 * 2400

I hope im right and dont telling shit, but it makes sense for me

Good point.

3600*2400 would actually do 16 =)

4 Across and 4 down.

So for 9 you would need :-

2400*1800 - Does that exist?

Blogger markus1000 said...

1)torrents have no user limit
2)i have no problems with it
3)u have always problems with torrents or just problems with this?
4) is your client up to date? which client you use?

1:32 PM  
Anonymous Anonymous said...

Yes client is up to date. Just a few torrents linked from this blog that never start. Other torrents work fine.

sometimes this works: dont open the torrents from the site, save it at your hard disk first and then open it there.

What is the failure notice?

Failure notice just keeps saying it can't connect to tracker, or the timer ran out trying to connect.

i dont thought this is torrent help forum , hehe.
Just a joke...

torrents files connect you to the specific file on the torrent network.
Download a torrent client first i prefer this one

http://azureus.sourceforge.net/download.php

install the programm and download the torrent file and start it with the client....then you have to wait till the downloading process is complete.

Check out the Directory where the client save its downloads and there is the new file which you can open.
