Any other Laddies users experiencing this and if so, any known work arounds?  When I load the Laddies software it seems to hog the cpu and most of the time I am running at 100% cpu utilisation.  No such problems with any other poker sites though.  Thanks.

In the last 5 days my AA was raised all in preflop and lost to QQ each time making either a set, straight or flush.  Last night I was dealt JJ as BB, button raised 4 BB's and I called.  Flop came 2, 7 J giving me a set.  Button raised all in, I called and Button showed QQ.  River was a Q and that was that.  I find it pretty spooky that it is always QQ outdrawing me.  Although it is no consolation, you are not alone in experiencing these beats but if you continue to get your chips in when you are ahead the tide will turn and the results will come in.

I'd call - reasonable chance he has you beat but very hard to lay down the full house.  If you lose you still have chips left and can go al lin when the shows up!

I also tend to shy away from any rebuys and prefer freeze outs.

My Mum died of cancer one year ago.  I still miss her a lot but now I try to remember all of the good times with her.  Do not fight the grieving process, it is all right to cry.  Actually just typing this has my eyes welling up, it will be the first anniversary of her passing away next week.  Lean on your family and friends and eventually the pain will become tolerable.

Thanks for the replies.  I did the Google search but just wondered if anybody had any experience or comments on doing this.  I was not aware of ipodlounge and will check it out.

If anybody has tried using the new Ipod with video capability as a portable means of watching films transferred from a DVD, i would appreciate answers to the following:

   - Is the screen big enough to allow you to enjoy watching the film?

   - How did you get the film from the DVD to the Ipod?

Thanks

If I die before I wake
At least in heaven there's no rake
Cos right here on earth I've got ace jack
The fish calls 47 for all his stack.

and the fish busts my ass and i am out on the street w/ no where to go!

hahahahahaaha - good one

Hachem was a winning player on the $10/20 NL cash games on Laddies.

Brian - it was a pleasure and experience, I think, to sit next to you in the $1,000 and Main events.  I played in a cash game today and was not doing well until I called a raise of 4 BB's with thinking it was time to do a BrianWilson.  Flop came up 3 5 6 and I doubled up - you have made me a believer to the mighty 47 off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Until the next time............

I am here in St Kitts too!

Julian, it was a pleasure to meet you in Amsterdam (I was on your table with the Laddies shirt) and I look forward to getting that drink in St Kitts!

Tikay, I left Amsterdam yesterday after getting knocked out.  The atmosphere you create on here is better than actually being there!!!

Congratulations on selling Pokerchamps Tony.

Thanks for the replies.  I will take a look at the poker academy software.
