New setup!

After needing one for a looong time, over the weekend I managed to sort out a new setup. I had spoken to my backer and he was in absolute shock that I currently used just a laptop and its touchpad, with the likelihood of Carpal tunnel syndrome increasing day by day. My room looked like it belonged to a 12 year old with everything stored in makeshift crap I created throughout my design technology lessons, so finally thought it was about time I took a trip to Ikea.

Absolutely love the being in ikea, or at least I do until I get it all home, and realise there's a reason as to why it fits in my car. Bought all the stuff Saturday afternoon, it probably took me about 15 hours total to put all the stuff together, tied in with moving pretty much everything from my room to the skip it's been a long long weekend. Finally Monday night I completed it, although I expect to move out in the next 6 months or so it's good to have all the stuff to transfer to a new pad.

It now looks like this, the next thing that needs re-doing is the cringeworthy wallpaper and colour scheme. However I definitely don't feel like moving anything for years:

Thought I would leave some unashamed plugging of my mates website, www.pokerpie.net. All done by Leon Iacono (GP finalist back in the day) there's a lot of light hearted funny material, and it's very early days. Might even contribute to a post or two myself in the future.

In the near future I will probably swap the laptop for another monitor, and just leave the laptop as a processor, almost like a desktop computer. The monitor is nabbed from my parents office, so alternatively I may just upgrade it to a bigger screen (currently 22 inch)

The fact you grind as you do, with the profits you make....on a laptop?!?!?! Mother of god the moment you get an actual grinders setup im scared how much the volume is gonna shoot up. Not to mention gameplay through just feeling more comfortable!

I'm sure there's a euphemism, or at the very least a "that's what she said", moment in here somewhere, but I just can't find it....

The full set up!

Having previously bought a desk and what not from ikea, as well as adding a monitor, I've bought chunks of things to help with my grinding. I find it hard to believe the heater I was on and the results I got the way I was previously set up, so I'm now officially able to be labelled as "all the gear, no idea".

Invested in an ergonomic mousemat, a wired mouse a beautiful chair as well as investing in StackAndTile software. If you have not heard of SAT, I can confirm it is an absolute god send when trying to grind across 3+ poker websites. It's like an advanced version of table ninja in regards to bringing table to front when action is required, but it has a specific stack for all tables when no action is required or you are not in a hand, you can bring specific tables to the front whenever you require them as well as setting up x amount of slots, so you are able to see action across all tables if needed.

Re: poker play, start of the week managed to chop a comp for $900 on Party, the payouts there are mad paying 20% of field, then top place typically recieving 20% of the guarantee, meaning 1st place is pretty weak. In the last 2 sessions have spun into $500 makeup after snap withdrawing all profits, time to work and handle any potential downswing hat could happen from here like a boss.
