No, just hold all your BTC for now.  Both are still trending vs fiat.  By trading some of your BTC to ETH you are exposing yourself to more risk fiat-wise if both go down.

One rule of thumb is to go 100% BTC if it's trending.  It's the safest bet imo.

My biggest pot of the night!  

In this hand, I felt iffy 3-betting this out of position.  Also 45GARPUN45 is on the tight side, so I would hate getting 4-bet and getting it in vs AA or KK preflop, which is definitely in his range.

When AceKikr999 3-bet from the big blind, being a tight-passive player that he is, I knew for sure he had the AA.  So easy call and set mine.  Luckily I run good and binked my Q on the flop.  The rest pretty much played itself.  45GARPUN45 had 67s for trips and AceKikr999 had AA.  

Can you make a comparison, preferably in bullet-points , on how the two are different?  It would also be nice to know how they are the same in some aspects and how one is better than the other in some features.

It's really hard to give an answer if I do not exactly know what Waves is.

Because they are both equally important, especially for the top clubs who have a chance to win at both.  They even have difficulty on rotating the players because of the injuries of their players due to the tough league games and the CL.  And the top club owners demand winning it all.  So it's much more difficult for a club in the much tougher EPL.

In La Liga and the rest, their league fixtures are less tough.


Alex Ferguson is the exception.  He is one of the greatest football managers that ever lived.  If not, the greatest ever in our generation.


That exactly explains the fact that the easier games in La Liga don't put a lot of strain on the players when they play in European tournaments.  Tottenham had a hard time balancing its players in the EPL and Europa League because they were going for both titles.

And ending up in 7th place doesn't change the fact the Andrea Berta is a good sporting director.  It's just a sh*t club who won a European tournament who no one cares about 3 years in a row.


As I said before...  It's his knee injury.  He hasn't been back to his 100% form since that injury last January 2014.

I quit watching F1 since they switched to the V6 turbo.  To my surprise, Mercedes without Ross Brawn is dominating the field.  What exactly happened to Redbull Racing?  Is Adrian Newey still with them?

The funny thing is now that I'm in a sig campaign, I'm more conscious about the quality of my posts and have been posting less instead of maximizing the opportunity.  I guess that's a good thing overall for me as I spend more reading than posting nonsense. 

As for people who want to get in signature campaigns, I advice you to make quality posts and add good content for the forum.  If you have any questions, just feel free to ask away in the thread.  

Hahaha.  Ok, I will do that.

And yes, I'm very much aware that the odds are stacked against me.  But I like the challenge.  Call me a masochist.  Lol. 

Hey guys.  Just dropping by for a little update.  So far so good, I'm up 6.5 buy ins after three 1500 (more or less) hand sessions in 2nl.  Games are fishy and that's expected at these stakes.

I've been playing mostly TAG (tight and aggressive), nothing fancy.  I just do the standard play mostly except for a couple of spots like this one where I wanted sashka1789, who's really spazzy, in the pot instead of 4-betting the min 3-bet, thereby blowing him off.  I wanted him to 4-bet himself so we could go over the top preflop or call, see a flop and play poker...


I will be posting more hand histories from time to time so feel free to critique my play, tell me where I went wrong, what the better play is, etc... etc...  

Thanks!

What we should be thinking about is 'How is Hunt's takedown defense vs Lesnar?'  Sure Hunt could knock him out with one punch.  But what if Lesnar catches Hunt with a double, then starts dropping bombs on him while he's on his back?  Hunt could be in for a serious beating if he's not careful.

Yup, it's all speculation from me.  But it isn't farfetched and it is indeed possible.  We've seen these shenanigans done in the world of business from time to time.  And with the cartelization of BTC mining among the top mining farms, I wouldn't be surprised and would accept it as the reality of the Bitcoin economy.

I agree.  Now I'm really looking forward for Conte to take over at Chelsea.  It should be a really interesting season in the EPL with all the good managers at the top clubs.

Maybe this recent match shows that he's capable of out smarting better teams like MCFC in the EPL.

Belgium's line up is better than Italy's squad imho.  But in this game, Italy looks to be playing well and I'm happy to see either team winning.  But Belgium could still make a goal.  It ain't over til it's over.  I mean look at ENG vs RUS game...

When you say the 'Chinese', you don't mean the ordinary people, do you? Because pumps like these are done usually by people in the know.  I wouldn't be surprised if the big miners banded together from time to time to pump BTC in order to protect they're interests and operations from collapsing due to a falling BTC price...  Or the halving, which cuts the miners' earn in half.  Ouch.

I'm honestly more scared when BTC starts doing quick parabolical rises.  We all already know how this is all going to end up.  We've seen it again and again with BTC itself and all the other altcoins time and time again.  We've even also seen it happen to stocks and commodities.

I'd prefer it if BTC started doing a slow, quiet and steady rise.  This current rise looks like it's being played and manipulated.

No.  Now why would I say that?  Although I think they are both equally important.  All the top clubs want to win both the league and thr CL plus also their cup games.


As I told you, the tougher league games in the EPL put a strain on their players more compared to other leagues.


Sevilla has a better team built.  They have a good sporting director in Andrea Berta.  It's quite a feat what they did in winning the Europa League 3 times in a row.  But no one really cares for the Europa League though.  


What year and in what tournament?  As far as I know he was sidelined for the 2014 WorldCup due to the knee injury he had while he was at Monaco.  He wasn't able to get back in form at United due to that same injury, and when he went to Chelsea the following season it was the same story.

Now that he's back at Monaco, we'll see how he performs.  I hope he does well as he is one of my favorite players since his Porto days under Villas Boas.

Edit:  And he wasn't selected for Coppa America.

As expected...  Germany has arguably the best line up in this tournament.  Gotze up front, with Ozil behind  and Draxler and Mueller at the wings.  Lot's of good options for Ozil.  I wonder why Wenger uses him at the left wing some of the time.  He's better at the middle behind the striker.

And France's squad is a close second.

I don't think Mourinho is really keen on getting Zlatan signed at United.  I think the real reason he went to Paris was to scout and watch Verrati which seems like another option if they cannot sign Pogba.

Again, he had a serious knee injury at Monaco.  And yet he was still signed on loan by LVG at United.  That wasn't a wise move as after the knee injury, Falcao never came back in form.  And that knee injury could be recurring according to rumors.

Falcao knee injury article here:  http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/teams/colombia/10591903/Radamel-Falcao-ruled-out-of-2014-World-Cup-after-suffering-knee-injury-while-playing-for-Monaco.html

I don't think so.  LVG resorted to playing the younger players not by design but by necessity.  He had no choice, they had a lot of injuries.  Good thing Rashford clicked.

Of course it is.  Tough league matches make the players even more tired in CL fixtures.  This is a known fact.

On Sevilla that doesn't mean it is any better than some of the EPL teams, and yes the less tough fixtures sure did help them.  Imagine if Sevilla was part of the EPL...  They would have tired players going into European competition.  

 On Falcao, he was sidelined during the World Cup because of the said knee injury.  It keeps recurring, but keeps telling the media that his new injury isn't connected with his knee but a minor muscular one.  But that's waht they all say to maintain their value in the transfer market.
