Hi guys, after a few people asked me to make my games available, i have decided to make them available for download.
Note that i am not sure if it will give you warnings or something since i am not a "known publisher" or anything.
First game: http://www.filedropper.com/gems_1
This game generate 20 random gems that give your warrior various attributes. By pressing "autopickforp2" the gems of p2 will be auto picked in a very smart way. If you manage to beat the computer in a best of 3 or something like that, it would be very good. Me and my friend played against it and lost a lot, so we tryed it with only 8 gems for the luls and it still somehow owned us lol
Second game: http://www.filedropper.com/substract_1
this is a mini game which is possible, and first time you will look at it you might think its easy, but its actually borderline impossible unless you are either a math genius or spend hours calculating.
Its about being the first to reach 0, but the computer plays perfectly (but the starting number favors you).
I will probably make new games in the future. If anyone have ideas, you welcome to post here, but i am not good yet at "graphics games", i am more interested in possibly board games, or other strategy games or rpgish games which would most importantly involve a very powerfull AI.
Few things i have in mind:
#1 Some sort of war game where a few soldiers fight a few soldiers, with attributes such as speed (decides who shoot first) and accuracy, where fights are often uneven. I was thinking of making it a game where you see both sides and need to quickly guess which side will win (retreat or fight) and call it general training. This is nice because its so easy to make
#2 chess AI. hmm not very original or anything tho
#3 Poker bot or Poker AI. probably hardest project tho.
#4 Some sort of rpg fight generator, where the fight generated is always possible, but very difficult, and once you loose maybe even have an option to see what the solution was. Could call it RPG puzzle.
#5 Some sort of more elaborated version of my gem game.
PS: please no more comments such as "you have too much time on your hands" or "go fuck your gf" or things like that. I do plenty of things beside this (spend time with gf, school+work, see friends, etc) but now instead of wasting my free time on games, i am develloping my skills as a programmer since im studying computer science. THose games really doesn't take that long to make.
Hey guys!
Was supposed to blog this a week ago but I got banned for 14 days for posting "dick in the ass" in the Valentines Day Presents thread lol This is like the 3rd time I got banned in the last 3 months or so, and dont know if I'm being a dick or LP is turning too gay and boring but anyway. I'll try to be a nice boy from now on.
OK, about Thailand now!
I've been here for a month already and it has been a great experience overall. The biggest problem for me here is the food, I'm sooo picky with my food and thai food isnt even close to the kinda of food I like. Lucky me my girlfriend cooks very well our good old brazilian food so thats nice. Of course I can find nice places to eat out but I have to be very carefully about my choices otherwise its imposible for me to eat out.
We rented a 2 bedroom apartment very close to the Thong Lo BTS station so that makes a lot easier for us to go anywhere since the traffic in Bangkok is jammed all the time. We have a couple(I really mean a couple, a man and a woman) of brazilian friends living here, the guys works for the brazilian embassy in bangkok. Their compainenship has halped a lot adapting to Bangkok and having more fun that we would have if we didnt know anybody in the city.
We are paying 35,000TBH/month for rent, thats around $1,200 USD, kinda of expensive but our place is so nice and well located that I think it is worth it. We have a nice pool and gym in the building and the view is great! I'm living a lot better that in Brazil for sure, where a used to pay $1,000 for a very small studio lol.
Internet in my building is very good but the cable tv in thailand sucks. We didnt even signed it cause channel selection was so poor that it wasnt worth it. Instead what did I do? I signed netflix. "but netflix is not available in thailand" you may say! yes I know that! I'm using an amazing proxy service that I already used in Brazil (even though Brazil already has netflix available) in orher to access USA Netflix. It is the www.unblock-us.com ! Costs $5/month, its really easy to setup and NEVER fails. I configured my router so every device in the apartment can connect directly thru the proxy, really amazing stuff.
dinner with a fergusonby traxamillion, February 19
So I had dinner at my girlfriend's house tonight. Her mother has a sister. This sister is married to Mark Ferguson. Mark Ferguson is obviously brother to chris ferguson.
I have always wanted to meet one of them if only to try to get a 100% rakeback account but they lived in Vegas until now. Mark is back in Palo Alto for a new job now that the whole full tilt thing fell apart (his brother didn't break him off enough to retire? I know he worked on tiltware).
Anyways I probably should have just kept my mouth shut but I didn't
had to ask her what her take on this whole thing was. Told her i was lucky enough to have money on stars but some of my good friends lost tons. Basically she just said the DOJ faked as payment processors for two years taking all the money and that is why when shit hit they fan they didn't have the money to pay out the players. As to why full tilt extended credit to everyone for like a month with no way to collect the funds she said there was a good reason but couldn't put her finger on it. Just really annoyed me how she put it all on the DOJ not acknowledging bad management on the part of ray howard and chris.
She had no information I hadn't basically already heard so maybe I was just being an ass figuring her husband was more involved than he really was but I know if I was scamming millions my little brother would be right next to me.
My girl and I got in a pretty decent fight over this and i'm pretty tilted but do you guys really think she just knew nothing (or got lied to the whole time by the hubby). I was just bothered being in the same room as someone who may and likely did benefit from stealing from my friends.
Guys was I being a dick should I just give this woman the benefit of the doubt????
Apparently chris ferguson is just chillin in Arizona no criminal penalties or anything.
As a lot of you may I have a career outside of poker as a golf professional. The past few months I have been in the running for a new job, and I landed it! My new job is Head Golf Professional at Mohegan Sun Country Club at Pautipaug. And yes, Mohegan Sun is a pretty large casino located in Connecticut. Needless to say I'm pretty pumped about the new job and can't wait to get started. The course has been closed for almost two years undergoing renovations and is really sick now. It it going to be a lot of work starting from scratch this year, but at the end of the year it will be totally worth it.
Surprisingly found some time for another blog post. Here's how we're looking right now: http://i.imgur.com/kPQ1z.jpg
That puts me at finishing around 70k after May. And that's assuming a lot. i.e maintaining that hourly, and getting 150 hours in every month, which will be tough enough. I'll either need to find a way to get in closer to 200 hours a month at some point or win more, heh. I'll post another update after this month is over.
On a side note: amazing 10/20/40 has been running at bellagio. Wish I could get a seat in it, worth a 1 buy-in shot. Some fish has been killing it the last few days I heard; up over 90k. I also saw that a guy turned his $800 buy-in into $50,000 yesterday in the game though; i assume off of the fish. Prob worth trying to get into lol.
How to obtain rakeback from Hero Pokerby Carthac, February 16
Did a google search, did not come up with much of anything as far as rakeback deals. Nothing here on LP. Figured maybe some of you guys could help me out.
What is the best way to go about getting rakeback on Hero Poker?
Hi, I would like to deposit to start grinding again (I quit few months ago) I still have a deal @ ongame with 45% rb and its payed monthly, I am looking to start a new account in maybe a diferent site, im just looking for a better deal, I usually play around 40-50k hands per month and I would start @ nl10-nl20, if anyone could help pm me plz thanks in advance.
Hi guys i programmed a new game i was wondering if anyone wants to test it, or have ideas for it.
Its a game based on a classic computer science problem called knapsack problem, but i believe my version is more complex.
In this game, you first pick the number of gems that there will be for sale (i recommend 30-40), and then they are all randomly generated. All of them have a price between 10-30, a type (attack speed life) and a value (based on price, but a bit random).
You start with 100$ and can buy as many gems as you want, and all of those boost your warrior.
You can either play against a friend or against the computer by clicking a button which makes his pick all of his gems (the more gems there are, the longer his thinking time takes. Over 50 gems takes him a LONG time).
Then once both players are done picking, the battle is simulated 100 000 times (or more) and the % of the time each player won is displayed.
Note: speed determines what % of the time your character strikes. So if your speed is much higher than the ennemy, your character will play a lot more often than the ennemy.
Right now, the computer is extremely difficult to beat, i can only tie with him. The strategy is to try to pick the gems that offers the best price/value ratio, while making sure you spend all of your money, and you balance speed/attack/life properly.
The computer isn't perfect, but he plays really well.
Since your not on skype and I might not be around later ill post the graph twisted. http://i.imgur.com/HGVUm.png
3.50 rebuy only graph
Recovered but total bullshit lost so many headsup for 200$ with best hands and bigger stacks. I PLAY THIS GAME TO WIN NOT SECOND WTF!.

Anyone know how Amazon does search results?by k2o4, February 16
I'm about to go into googling mode, but just in case there's somewhere here who understands how amazon organizes search results and what the trick is to getting a DVD pushed up to the front page of results. What does amazon factor in? I'm doing the obvious stuff like adding tags and getting people to add reviews. What else?
Update, just have to brag :) by longple, February 15
Ok so money is rolling in and im doing very well. The dautstake is cleared and my game feels super tip top right now and busting my roll + starting on stars have been a very positive longterm experience for me i think.
my game is better then ever before, learned alot from playing better regs on stars, adjusted well to 100bb again, and i can 24 table + gameselect some other tables from other clients on the side, without feeling that im missing to much. stars software <3
stars is also taxxfree now + ive lost 20kg + ive met a girl i like alot.
everything is just tiptop.
And the month is only halfway in, this month really have potential! :D

(alltho im shipping some money to daut, dont know where its gonna end too laazy to do the math, maybe at 80k ish afterall from haveing 40% in my first 25k winnings or something from this month)
80 000 fucking us dolls

edit:
and oh yeah, on monday im makeing a chestpiece tattoo also thats gonna be sooo awesome, superpumped. I got an MMS on my phone today from my tattoist (er?) with a sketch of what we are gonna do the first sitting (about 4 hours), and then 2 weeks later or so we are gonna do the rest of the tattoo.
the image to the left is from an album i really enjoy and is a big part of my childhood/kansas will always be special to me. And he made an own version of it that i really dig it the more and more i look at it! cant wait to see how he wanna make the wings.
but basically im gonna do it on my chest, with the wings going up against my shoulders.
So I quit Poker 3 years ago and I am trying to restart now.
I won about 3k at NL25 in my active times and would like to get there again. So I deposited 100$ and started with 8 tables NL10 and it's a totally different gameplay than 4 years ago... There aren't as much weak people to pay me off and everyone seems to be tight waiting for the nuts. Played 8K hands now with pokertracker and I'm still at 100$. This is really pissing me off, cause I was a winning player at NL25... Anyway, can you tell me how Poker changed in the last few years? How can I adapt my game to it? I'm willing to learn from you guys.
Since NL seems to be much tougher than years ago I think about giving PL Omaha a shot, but I don't know anything about this game. I've seen that good Omaha players have winrates of about 20BB/100, while great NL players have like 4BB/100. My theory is that Omaha is way harder to play, because there are much more of mathematics to know --> More people who don't know about this and pay you off great. Is this true? If you master most of the Omaha stuff, can you win more money than in NLholdem?
Thanks for helping me and plz don't tell me that I need more buyins for playing NL10 :D
