Sorry Garth, mine is probably a little soppy...

But maybe while putting all the benefits offered such as the prizes, the competitions on offer and the awesome staff.. maybe you could highlight the friendships made, the laughter had and gaining the love for a fantastic sport.

believe it or not, there is still a big social aspect to the online games. even though it has only been going for a week, i have identified most of the usuals that i knew through poker, and the chat box is pretty active.

railing poker buddies when they go deep in a tournament is also fun

And not having to ask them all during the break what their stack is :D If only we had a decent hand history, it would cut out all bad beats stories :lol: :lol: :lol:

The HH is fine, as long as you paste it into a Word document.

I'm obviously missing something, so you'll have to help me next time we are playing one of these together.

I fully agree benny the cunt, your comment hit the nail on the head...
I must confess I am really loving playing along side forum members I have only seen posting and especially having a laugh.

I definately believe having the "home" element with the "away" part is definately drawing me in to play more and more.

Have you ticked the box marked "save my Hand Histories"?

Will save them and keep them for 30 days as a notepad file in whatever destination folder you tell it.

Then cut and paste the relevant hands into a word doc.

Actually, it is a very messy way of doing it. But it does work.

Yes, I've done that, but what I meant is being able to see previous hands on a table I'm railing.
