Glad to see people taking interest in this. It was a ton of fun last year. I'm not sure Nate's screenname but mine is ThinkingPoker or something like that. See you at the final table (in ~April)!

still nothing has worked for me.  No matter how I respond or what i respond with i just get error messages back.

 

The worst part abou this is it would not let me quit either.  So i just kept getting 50 emails a day.  I finally created a rule to send the emails to trash and went back to online poker which apparently is more my speed  cool

How are people getting on?

I have found it a little strange: had pocket pairs for about 5 of the first 8 or so hands.

Just lost a reasonably bit pot against someone who got a runner runner flush, against my flopped trips. Quite tilting! I don't know if it is allowed to post the hand here – I'd like to for comments: I think it is pretty standard but there is probably things I could have done better.

Chip leader right now… Doubled through this guy who's not played optimal. Was over him and noticed he had entered sticky pot bet, thought I'd just go with my hand whatever.

I havent been dealt a playable hand really yet. Got overzealous calling 67o pre. People on my 'table' arent playing that well so just looking to pickup a hand. They are also really slow at responding.

Great start Melanocetidae, and good luck Kalculater and everyone else playing.

 

 

Was doing okay, nothing special until this hand (the one I mentioned above). Criticism, comments very welcome. I think I played okay and opponent not, but am happy to be corrected.

Yes… Just unlucky runner, runner flush…  Clearly they were not folding top pair…

 

No playable hands for me yet, even in position… At this rate I might not play a hand until 2014… wink

Are TPE people still playing this?

I'm still in but just lost about 30% of my stack. (My top pair on flop – when the money went in – lost to someone's bottom pair bluff shove.)
