							| 10 | Poker Forums / The Rail / O/T Mouse pointer question | on: March 24, 2007, 07:26:34 AM |  
							| Hi all,
 I've recently bought a new PC with Windows Vista and when ever the mouse pointer is left hovering over a word it gives me a translation in up to four different languages.
 
 For example, hovering over the word 'windows' I get : - windows : ventana; ventana; ventanilla; la vidriera
 
 I gets slightly annoying when I'm trying to read articles off the web.
 
 Does anyone know how I can turn this function off?
 
 Cheers.

							| Blackjack is my casino game of choice and my staking system is a knid of anti-martingale.
 
 My local casino has a £2 minimum and £200 maximum.
 
 Starting at £2 I will play 2 boxes (the last 2 if possible) and follow basic strategy and always stake £2 on a losing box.
 
 The winning streaks are where you punish the house with their own cash.
 
 You can (and I have) hit the maximum bet after 10 consecutive winning hands.
 
 I stake like this :-
 
 (Always dropping the losing box back to £2)
 
 £2, £4, £8, £12, £18, £27, £40, £60, £90, £135, £200
 
 The key is to always play consistently, don't let a £135 bet stop you from hitting 14 against a 10.
 
 Nothing like a juicy £90 double 11 against a 5 to get the heart pumping!
 
 
 
 Do you believe that this is a winning system? Or is it just a fun way to play?I was a casino dealer on and off for about 7 years so I know there is only one winner! I employ this system to pass the time before the poker starts and I have troubled the cashiers desk for some sealed packets after a good run! Although, over the long run, I'm sure I must be a losing player. But I enjoy it! |
