Moved in

Moved in. Major hassle fest =)

I got my computer set up but DSL won't be activated until the 20th so I am struggling on modem until then. This of course is very painful for me so I am trying to avoid all computer activity in the meantime. I played some poker today and although it was playable it was still a little laggy and annoying.

Flat is pretty much all set up. Just need to get an HDTV for the main room. Not sure which one but probably the 56" JVC LCOS. Going to see it tomorrow. Also need to get a car but that will hopefully be sorted out in a week or two. Weather has been good so not been missing the Internet too much =)

Have Fun in your new living room!

If you are back @internet, would be cool if you make a review of the sklansky NL book, i am sure you have read it ;)

My mum brought that book over yesterday when she was visiting so it did arrive =)

I've always liked Sklansky's books so I'm sure there will be a few moments of clarity in there.

Don't forget it was co-written by Ed Miller. Ever since I read "Small Stakes Hold'em," I've made it a point to read and buy everything that guy writes. You should too :) He's also working on another NL book, focusing on small stakes NL games; should be good.

I knew within 1 hour of posting that - you and Malcy would ask me if that was my post.

Who needs a car - public transport not good enough?!

Man this site is useless now that it no longer posts PokerTVshows. Its all, MMORPG nerd talk, or flat talk, or scotland talk. Anyone for poker talk?

i know how you feel about lack of internet. I am waiting on it getting installed in my flat at the moment.

So tonight, i shall be playing the final of a WSOP main event freeroll from the comfort of an internet cafe. At least i won't have to make my own coffee. :-)

Why arent you at the WSOP Tillerman?

Moving house, and friend moved over from USA. Bad timing I guess. Can't very well say, hey buddy, this is Scotland, enjoy. See you in 4 weeks!

=)

Not missing much though. Tournaments around the world at all times of year these days and WSOP has lost most of its magic with these ridiculous sized fields anyway.

Main event - 8000 entries (guess)

You are world class player, you have not 1in8000 chance but say 1in1000 chance(Very Generous).

You have to enter for the next 1000 years to have a chance of winning. Cool! Most of us only have around 40-50 chances =)

You are too pessimistic!

Take Mike the Mouth’s view. 8000 players, 7000 donkeys. That only leaves a field of 1000. Easy...

LOL :D

What on earth is a pro-donk? If it means beating the middle limits by 5+bb/100 then I'll be happy :)

As for young players coming out of Scotland - watch this space. Rory and Tillerman is just the beginning....

I'm starting to think 'Tillerman' is simply a persona adopted by a sad and lonely ex-gamer type.

I regularly play the highest stakes NL all over the internet and can never seem to find this Scottish wizard.

What are your screen names on the various sites, I'm itching to take you on?
