I have an EEE1000 and Orange dongle. As stated, it really depends where u are, i only really use it to play poker in the pub and it works fine for that. The occasions i have used the internet though are as others have stated, if you can get a 3g signal then its all good, if it can only pick up a GPRS signal its a waste of time.
Id strongly advise to avoid the packages about at the moment. Many of them will only include a few gig of downloads, billing you for anything over this. The worst bit though is that your paying over the odds for the service. A normal dongle is about £15 a month, PC World will do you one for £45 a month on a 24 month contract and then give you a £400 laptop free? Its a ripoff youve actually just paid £720 quid for it!

If you're insisting on playing this the same as a pair of 2's then yes you have the right implied odds to call given that there are five players in the pot.
However, seeing as you've got a good hand why not re raise him. About half a pot raise should do nicely, say $10 more. It's all he deserves for his gay min raise he's just made. Chances are they'll all fold but hopefully you get a customer and can do your hand justice.
Lol, Do you think his gay min raise is weak pie? You raise he insta hoves cus he has AA. Lol We've talked about your reads before. Not weak, just gay. If he instashoves with AA it's because he's crap and doesn't get max value out of his hands. Are you suggesting that we set mine then? Are we automatically assuming that everyone who min raises is uber strong rather than just doing a little bit of cheeky pot building? If the flop comes 2 5 8 are we assuming we're behind to the gay raiser because he must have aces? We must have another chat about my reads  Not at all! All i was suggesting is that if you think someone is week they normally have the absolute nuts! Lol, do you not no the outcome of this hand? It was a misdeal, the gay raise was because he had received 5 cards

Fucking internet only just fixed last night!
Possibly playing tonight..
If you're doing this seriously which I'm sure you are you need a backup. You just need one of them USB plug in jobbies from orange or similar then you can access from that if your main connection goes down. Combine it with a backup laptop (for power cuts) and you're covered for every eventuality. Backup plan ftw!!!! LOL You're easily amused. Did that really make you laugh out loud? I don't understand the lol. LOL I must be missing something horribly obvious here. Unfortunately I've not been whooshed or anything because I'm totally clueless as to the problem. Can someone tell me what it is so that I can have a lol myself?  LOL LOL LOL LMFAO
