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.

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...

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.

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.

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way

      This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.

      Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.

      To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all

      300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
