In Response to Re: DYM,...GRINDING,AGAIN. : Ok cool - I was thinking of getting 2 x 22/24" monitors so will prob do that. I don't think Sky are going to bring smaller tables, just re-sizeable ones? i could be wrong about this. I will try2get a new system by next month if I can - would be great to 12 table! Posted by JingleMa
lol, wut ???? :S
--------------------------------------
The mini view option will still be there apparently........
I got a new PC 16 months ago, with a big monitor that can fit 12 mini view tables on witht he tinyest bit of overlap, like literally a centremetre.......
No need for 2 monitors imo.....
Ask Machka/Acidman for advice on a new PC, very happy with mine, cost £450ish I think, less than a good laptop.
how will re-sizable tables change things? does it mean you can choose the table size? and if so will you be able to make them any smaller than they already are now in mini-view? :-) devon
That's what I thought - tables u can re-size but current mini-view being the smallest they go - can they go even smaller? Great if they could.
Doh - yeah i think I got given some advice in a thread I made a few months ago but then I had to put my new PC plans on hold - will try and find that one also.

I dunno how this wud work for dyms, but have u thought of layering/cascading your tables?
U cud maybe have 2 stacks of tables, like, early stages on the left, late stages/bubble on the right, which will both auto focus when the action is on you....
Most of your decisions in dyms are theoretical, and don't rely on reads etc.
When the auto top up comes in I'll deffo be doing this for cash, despite having loads of room to tile.
hi DOHHHHHH, not tried layering or cascading myself, i,ll give them both a try. as it stands playing as i do just loading tables as normal, does seem to work well,as when you have played your move on a table the one that was underlayed then moves on top to play on. not sure if i can play any more than 12 on 1 screen, or if i would need to use 2.
not running well, don,t think the extra tables are helping either atm. well not tonight anyway.
lost £8.95 b/roll £60.78 c4p 1302
still,got to keep going.... not going to let it get me down. i enjoy it when i,m winning, so i.ll take it on the chin after losing!!
i may have to have a re-think playing more than 9 tables atm, as it is also probably not helping my game atm. may have to drop back 4 a night or 2 and see if this helps!!!
no worries anyway, i,m still happy,it,s still very early days with all the changes i am making.
night off tomorrow as i am going out, so plenty of time 4 that think...lol
hi jingle, well done on ordering your new pc, exciting isn,t it!!! i,m sure u will luv the 27" monitor, i know i do mine. let me know how u get on with it,please.
since my last up-date,13th march, played a six table cash session @2p/4p, lost £21.90. so not too happy about that, but to be fair to myself.... i did suffer some really bad,bad beats, so it wasn,t just me playing bad, anyway, that,s history now,so move on. not really been playing very much to be honest., as i know i am on a down-swing, so i think less is probably more atm. played some £1.15 & 60p dym,s day b4 y/day, came out level, so better than losing,i guess. still very happy with new pc, it loads everything up so much faster than the old one. just about getting to grips playing up to 12 tables now, playing just 9 now seems so much easier, so even though i,m not making any great strides forward atm, i do believe the benefits are hopefully just around the corner. well that,s what i,m telling myself anyway...lol
b/roll atm, £32.25 so having to be very disciplined. c4points is £15.56 atm so trying to hang on really until that kicks in, and will hopefully be able to start climbing again.
thanks guys, nice to have your support. feeling a bit low atm, so i really appreciate it. you still grinding them dym,s Mick? hope 2 keep b/roll until april,s c4p bonus, and hopefully start grinding those dym,s again.
thank you simon, appreciate your comments. especially atm,as i am not feeling at my best. yes,you are right about my b/roll management i think, it is without doubt my strongest weapon, and i,m sure without it,i would not be winning!!! you are also right about the pc too, it is so easy to take things for granted sometimes, and even when i am struggeling with my poker, i can always look at my pc and think, yes,i,ve won that.
thanks again simon, hope you are running well yourself!!! best wishes :-) devon
hi evil, cheers buddy. hey,what about you, you little binker you. seriously, well done mate what a great night that must have been. "still talking to us low-stake grinders then"...lol
interesting to see how you go from here? upwards and onwards i,m sure. must be exciting playing the higher levels? any plans? or, just go with the flo!!!
just make sure you don,t lose it all!!!
i,ll watch with interest... best wishes, :-) devon
Cheers Yeah, it wasn't a bad night lol. Hopefully onwards and upwards from here, been playing anywhere between £11 and £33 DYM's recently and making a few quid, so long may it continue
Playing at higher levels is a lot more exciting than grinding £1.15 DYMs all day, getting 60-80 C4P before I got fed up and maybe a couple of quid if I'm lucky, which is what I was doing before. Surprisingly, there's not that much difference - The regs are generally better, but the fish are still fish. Was in a £33 DYM the other day, I'm on the button and every player before me limped, then folded to my raise, so there's still bad players, you have to pick and choose your games a lot more carefully than the lower levels though.
No plans to do anything with the money atm, probably have a go at the £25k Super Roller as I enjoy and seem to do quite well in tournaments with slower structures where you're sat really deep to begin with so will be entering. Other than that, just keep enjoying Poker and building my bankroll up
well done again, been reading your diary, so have been following your dym progress. interesting that you think there,s not that much diference thought there would be. keep going..... soon see you on the telly. :-)
Nice one son, Yeah i'm still grinding the DYM's Haven't had much time to play as much recently as got quite busy at work. Anyway gotta go , the sun is shining and i'm off to the beach on my Scooter ! happy days. Mick

does it mean you can choose the table size?
and if so will you be able to make them any smaller than they already are
now in mini-view?
:-)
devon
and i think the "dedicated graphics card"
was an important factor.
also choosing windows 7 as opposed to windows xp.
That's what I thought - tables u can re-size but current mini-view being the smallest they go - can they go even smaller? Great if they could.
Doh - yeah i think I got given some advice in a thread I made a few months ago but then I had to put my new PC plans on hold - will try and find that one also.
and at £580 all inc,
don,t know if u will find cheaper 4 the spec,s
not tried layering or cascading myself,
i,ll give them both a try.
as it stands playing as i do just loading tables as normal,
does seem to work well,as when you have played your move on a table
the one that was underlayed then moves on top to play on.
not sure if i can play any more than 12 on 1 screen,
or if i would need to use 2.

Ayop Dev & Doh,
Thought I'd just give a quick update.
I settled on a Dell 620mt with Nvidia graphics card and 27" Asus monitor, £700 total outlay.
Can't wait til it arrives next week!
R u still grinding Dev? Or taking a break?
well done on ordering your new pc,
exciting isn,t it!!!
i,m sure u will luv the 27" monitor,
i know i do mine.
let me know how u get on with it,please.
since my last up-date,13th march,
played a six table cash session @2p/4p,
lost £21.90.
so not too happy about that,
but to be fair to myself....
i did suffer some really bad,bad beats,
so it wasn,t just me playing bad,
anyway,
that,s history now,so move on.
not really been playing very much to be honest.,
as i know i am on a down-swing,
so i think less is probably more atm.
played some £1.15 & 60p dym,s day b4 y/day,
came out level,
so better than losing,i guess.
still very happy with new pc,
it loads everything up so much faster than the old one.
just about getting to grips playing up to 12 tables now,
playing just 9 now seems so much easier,
so even though i,m not making any great strides forward atm,
i do believe the benefits are hopefully just around the corner.
well that,s what i,m telling myself anyway...lol
b/roll atm, £32.25
so having to be very disciplined.
c4points is £15.56 atm
so trying to hang on really until that kicks in,
and will hopefully be able to start climbing again.
not much else to add,
best wishes everyone,
