Just wondering if anyone on here is playing in any of the ANZPT events this week at skycity. It's a big week of poker at skycity so even if your look to go there just for cash should be some good play there. I will be there on Monday for the Industrie game as i work in this industrie. Also thinking of playing the teams event or main event if I cash in the industrie game. Post up here if you will be heading down this week at some stage for one of the events or just for a cash game. Hope to meet some new people down there off here and some of the pro's as well.

and thats after they quadruple their prices.

im not even kidding, the 24/7 over the road makes an absolute f**king killing on cheap arse sunnies and caps during the big tournies.

LOL Damo

i didnt think the cas would allow hats etc would they Dave?

6 months ago we wouldnt *normally* allow hats and sun glasses at anything other than the poker tables. but then, we also had standards of entry back then. :huh:

that all being said though, youd be amazed what you can get away with at the tables. depends on a) who the dealer is, and b) if the inspector actually gives a fark...

all the CBD servo's will sell out of sunglasses and hats :(

:huh: :huh: ;):D

Funny I should see this thread, my mate and I were talking about getting back into the local NPL games played up here in the hills the other day. I'm no good at it, but it's something to do ;)

NPL = Donkey City. No offense to regular NPL players No cash riding on it and it just becomes laughable. Give me real money game any day :blush:

Last year one of the top 5 SA NPL guys came to a 'mates' cash game. He lost the lot by nights end. Cash games have a greater skill component vs. tourney - increasing blinds force you into situations, cash you can sit back and decided your own fate (luck can still desert you at inopportune times though).

I've had a bit of a look at the ANZPT stuff on PS, but haven't taken things any further than that.

was his name nick?

i used to play heaps npl nppl also try apl and oz a few times, made a couple state finals but seem to play better when theres real money on the table!!

i have a poker table out the back i want to get repaired soon, then maybe we could organise a SAU poker night?

I work for NPL and i see it all. Donkey everywhere and the worse thing is that you see them at the cas and they think there all that when they win a $30 pot i love them sitting at my table at the cas easy money :P. Was down there today at the ANZPT both events today were maxed out great prize pools.

i gave up on the novelty poker league ages ago, gets boring pretty quick.

do you work at the cas?

that i do.

    • For fuelling the Haltechs have O2WB fuel controllers. Very useful for helping tuning VE and correcting for *small* mistakes. Of course if your injector/cam/trigger/sensor data is just wrong (or for a GTT which is not a GT) then you will get impossible reactions to things. I am sure you know this already but the reason people don't typically put haltechs (or any Aftermarket ECU) on GT's is because there's practically no real gains to be had - So this knowledge won't be commonplace.
    • Can someone tell me if the cracks seen in the rear sway bar bushings in these photo's is unacceptable from a roadworthy point of view?  
    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
