God, it's cool, forget all the bullshit I wrote above about BRM, it's for morons who don't know how to enjoy poker.

Maybe @Livertool wants to raise a painful topic for every poker regular with his blog? Sitting at the computer for days on end, even forgetting that you have legs that you can use, this is really a problem that should be paid attention to. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1281040/Baby_Steps The more aggressive your BRM, the less time you will spend sitting at the computer, @Livertool, this is a brilliant solution!

I don't want to be boring, but why not change your approach to BRM, change it a little, but it will greatly change the accessibility of the game and you won't have to wait for some kind of bonus or freeroll. The point is to leave an "untouched" amount on the account, which will be a conservative BRM, and everything above - no BRM. For example, if you have 10 euros in your account or less, you can only play centroll and nano, and if you have more than 10 euros in your account, you can play anything. This has significant advantages compared to the complete absence of BRM, namely: - Availability of the game at any time when there is a desire to play, instead of waiting for a freeroll. - You will not miss very beneficial offers for the community (such as a farewell tournament for Ukrainians or flip tournaments of the community league). - More play - more blog content - more chances to win.

In order not to turn this into a long discussion of how the simulator would play correctly, I will give my intuitive (perhaps completely incorrect) opinion. I'd check because we're unlikely to get paid by a worse hand (like a straight/flush draw or second pair), but there's still a good chance of a trap or a stronger king that he won't fold.

It's great to see blogs come back to life after being stagnant. Stubbe is trying to breathe life into the community site, and that's great. I hope that he will succeed in this, just as you will succeed in achieving your goals 👍

To be honest, I was rooting for Rushbie the most in that tournament, since I destroyed his AA very hard in the last freeroll, but I split almost all my starting stacks between the two of you, and luck decided 🙂 Are you studying? Even watching 20-40 minutes a day of videos from professional players can help a lot. Also, I advise you to post hands that cause you questions and in which you are not sure, and not in which the cooler or opponent just did something stupid.

There are no specific conditions (or only Stubbe knows them), but in short, the main condition is the desire to help develop the poker product, this includes finding bugs, testing some functions or games, discussing and giving feedback on possible or existing mechanics, promos, games etc. In my opinion, the easiest way to get into UAT is to first be active in the things I described above in the public Discord channels or on the community site, and then over time you will either be invited yourself, or you can apply in person to Stubbe.

In March, I hardly played at Unibet. I was engaged in registration or verification on other sites, game testing, dealt with crypto wallets (it turns out that this is almost the only way of replenishment for many sites). As it turns out, there isn't another poker site out there that has the small MTT fields and still has enough of the game I need, hell, Unibet is perfect. But compromises have been found and I already play on several sites that mostly satisfy my requirements, so my career as a micro MTT player continues. I plan to spend the last day at the Unibet tables until my account is blocked, so don't forget to say hello to me at the tables if you see me, I will be very happy 🥰

In my opinion, in order for this weekly game to be popular, it is necessary to make this tournament in a PKO format and introduce additional non-monetary rewards. Since this is a home game for the forum, the reward for winning can be some unique status or mark (if possible). In the Centroll, the prize should be tickets to the tournament on Thursday, instead of exclusively monetary payments, make a format where the ITM zone will receive 1 ticket + money. These changes will increase the accessibility of the tournament and its appeal to the community members.

@Furan It is not clear what kind of game it is and what the stacks are, so it is desirable to clarify this. I suspect that this is MTT, because it is unlikely that in 100 BB stacks on the river, a push is possible based on the SPR that I imagine here. If you've already decided to go all the way, why are you afraid of difficult decisions after your check? The check-call option can look better, as we can provoke bluffs from flush draws (for example from the same AhXx) that will not pay us our bet. Everything else looks good (from the point of view of a weak REG player ABI 10 🙃)

Is there any reason why these tournaments are not PKO? This kills a lot of the fun in home games. A banzai format would be best to increase the action and reduce the effect of player skill on the results, which is a good thing for community games.

I already got the main reward for myself, my totem avatar 😁 If Stubbe could provide a high quality image of this avatar, I would greatly appreciate it ☺️

The hero's task is not to knock out the opponent, but to survive. If he has some conditional 72, then there is nothing strange about this fold. Of course, going into the game and then folding against a super short opponent is not the best game, but not the best game is not a crime 🙂

Since 2021, the Gambling Regulation Commission has been operating in Ukraine. At the moment, 3 poker rooms have a license: The question is why Unibet did not want to buy the license. There can be many reasons. One of the reasons for which I initially thought - ecology (perhaps because it was easier to take offense at and blame only Unibet 🙃) Now I believe more in the words of another person, that the reason is Ukraine's bad rating in various anti-corruption ratings and similar things, which can negatively affect the reputation of Unibet in the EU markets.

For the first few days, I really took this news too personally, as if I was the only one who was going to be banned for some made-up reason. Time has passed, the time of acceptance has come, and now I understand the position of a company that simply wants to do business without unnecessary risks, while the Ukrainian market cannot guarantee this. So if you think, and not just emotionally spit in all directions, then I have complaints only against my government and personally against myself as a voter.

Maybe someone should apologize 😳 Damn, now I love Unibet even more! 🥰

On the one hand, it is so, but it is very simplified and the reasons for choosing the Leninist option were quite valid. The Bolsheviks, by their very nature, are dissatisfied with the emperor, revolutionary-minded ordinary people from all corners of the empire, a consequence of clumsy domestic politics and an unsuccessful war. And on the outskirts of the great empire, Bolshevik attitudes were correlated with separatist ones. When the empire collapsed, it turned out that the Bolsheviks were not a single unit (oh, wonder), and the Georgian Bolshevik had somewhat different views on the future than the Ukrainian Bolshevik, or the Russian Bolshevik, or any other Bolshevik. The question arose of what to do next, and the Bolsheviks split into two camps. One camp wanted to rule their small country, and the other (ideological) camp wanted to spread Bolshevik ideas to the whole world, so that the proletariat of the whole world would be united. And the Bolsheviks, in fact, had to negotiate with the Bolsheviks. And it was possible to preserve a single country and carry the idea of communism to the world only when the ideological camp of the Bolsheviks promised another camp of Bolsheviks the right to leave if something went wrong with communism. Lenin and Stalin were both supporters of a single country. Only Lenin was in favor of the compromise option, and Stalin was in favor of the force option (to destroy a part of the Bolsheviks who were against it). As a result, they still decided to compromise, probably because the dispersion is smaller 🙂 The rubric "he shouldn't drink anymore" 1613 If I am not mistaken, this is the first mention of Ukraine on maps. But that's not all. The word "Rus" in the Old Slavic language means "the land, the territory of the people" and therefore the number of these "Rus" was countless, so people both in conventional Kyiv and in Novgorod could call themselves Rusych, but at the same time not associate themselves with each other at all and speak different languages. It's the same as Scandinavians or Africans (yes, I realize I'm oversimplifying). Therefore, there are a lot of even older maps, where there are a lot of different "Rus" on the territory of modern Ukraine/Russia/Belarus. The Russian Empire essentially united all these "Rus", which was reflected in the name. Ukrainians began to call themselves Ukrainians and their territory Ukraine much later than Europeans (map of 1613). After all, for Europeans, we were "on the edge" (in the Slavic language, "on the edge" is pronounced and written as Okraina). Ukrainians called themselves "Rusych" (before the time of the Cossacks, during the Cossack period there was even more confusion, since there were even more variants of the Cossacks than the Rusych) as well as other peoples, Kyiv Rusych, Novgorod Rusych, Northern Rusych, Southern Rusych, etc.) had their culture and language unique from other Rusychs, and only during the Russian Empire began to call themselves Ukrainians, to distinguish themselves among the many peoples of the empire. First, it was not a "return" but a conquest. Secondly, yes, Ukrainians did not live in the south of modern Ukraine (like Russians or Cossacks or Rusychs) until the time of the Russian Empire. But the Russian Empire "returned" these lands, resettled the indigenous Christian peoples (Armenians, Greeks) deep into the empire. Over time (when the Tatars finally left these territories), "disobedient people" from the empire itself (mainly Ukrainians, Kubans, and Russians) were forcibly relocated to these territories. an absolute lie A story from life. My grandmother came from a small village and from the age of 8 (1954) worked as a milkmaid on a collective farm. She was given a lower salary because she spoke Ukrainian (this rule was abolished in her collective farm only in 1976, my mother was already 7 years old and she remembers her grandmother's complaints about the fact that her salary was unfairly reduced for this). You had to speak Russian at work, but my grandmother never spoke a word of Russian during her life (according to her) and was very proud of it. This mentally ill grandfather chooses the most convenient date for himself in the history of mankind and wants to "return" the lands that should "justly" belong to him. To understand whether this position is adequate or not, it is enough to imagine what will happen if each country starts to "return legal territories". Of course, we can still talk about the historical block of interviews, but I seem to have expressed my opinion about everything. As for the political bloc, I don't want to enter into a discussion, especially with Trumpistas 🙂

The second round was with a result of 46% against 49% in favor of Yanukovych. Yushchenko submitted (he has the right by law) a package of complaints to the Central Election Commission (CEC). The complaints were mainly related to the mass casting (a type of falsification) of ballots for one of the candidates (Yanukovych) mainly in the polling stations of eastern Ukraine. The CEC rejected Yushchenko's complaint (it has the right under the law if it considers the complaint inappropriate or if the violations do not affect the election results). Yushchenko called on his voters to picket and thus force the CEC to consider the complaint (pickets and calls for pickets are a constitutional right). The beginning of the Orange Revolution. The CEC finally rejected Yushchenko's complaint (he has the right under the law if he considers the complaint inappropriate or if the violations do not affect the election results). Yushchenko filed a lawsuit in the Supreme Court against the CEC (he has the right by law). The trial was public, among the evidence were numerous videos from surveillance cameras installed at the polling stations, which clearly show the mass throwing of bundles of ballots into the ballot boxes. The Supreme Court recognized the elections as canceled and ordered the CEC to set a new date for the elections, i.e. the third round. It should be noted that polls before the second round showed equal chances of victory, some polls showed equal chances even to the tenth of a percent. But the pickets activated Yushchenko's voters and their turnout was higher in the 3rd round, which ensured his victory. Pickets continued (including calls to vote) until the very day of the 3rd round. Yanukovych (Russia supported him in this) declared that this was a violation, because campaigning is legally prohibited in the last week before the elections. Yushchenko stated that 7 days before the elections, he publicly called on his voters (this is true) not to picket and campaign. Yanukovych did not file a complaint with the CEC about violation of the "7 days of silence" rules (although he had the right). Yushchenko wins with almost 52%

For NATO, I wrote in a topic that was closed and provided graphs of the survey by year. In short, the majority was against NATO and for neutrality until 2014. Then, for obvious reasons, supporters of NATO began to increase, as they saw protection there. If someone wants to accept someone into the alliance, then it is necessary (even if the reasons are different) for both parties. Let Ukrainians decide whether they want to join the alliance, and let the alliance decide whether they want to see Ukraine as part of themselves. Everything is simple. Personally, I do not believe in Ukraine's membership in NATO in the next 10 years (in my opinion, it makes no sense to predict for more years) and in general I have always been in favor of neutrality.

I understand democracy (in the information field) as the opportunity for anyone to express himself and the opportunity to receive information from any source. If everyone follows the propaganda, it's not a problem of democracy, it's a problem of stupid people)
