Recording Door Cards in OnLine Stud - Brilliant!
So, I’ve been playing a lot of online H.O.R.S.E. games lately. If you’re like me, when you play stud/stud8 online, you are furiously writing down door cards on the hands you intend to play (Hey, I’m not too proud to write down door cards when no one can actually see me doing it).Well,…I’ve developed a very cool, high tech system for recording door cards. It goes like this:
1) Open your MS Paint utility program
2) Open your online poker window
3) Position the windows so that you can see most of both windows simultaneously (minimize overlap)
4) When you are dealt a hand you intend to play, press Alt+print screen
5) Press alt+tab to switch to MS Paint
6) Press ctr+v to paste
7) Press alt+tab to switch back to PokerStars
8) Then, after the hand, press alt+tab to switch back to MS paint and press Ctrl+z to remove the picture
I’m thinking about patenting this brilliant idea, but I need a good patent lawyer. Know any?
If this doesn’t work for you, another option you can try that doesn’t involve memorizing dead cards
1) If the pot is not opened, open for a raise
2) Lead out on 4th and 5th street no matter what cards come
3) Check/fold on 6th/7th street unless you have at least Aces up
Warning: This is not acutally a profitable stud strategy, but at least you can multi-table or watch pistions basketball while playing.
