Texas Calculatem and Poker Office Blog

Nacho, Acorn's Poker sidekick, has destroyed yet another gift. This time, the Juicester and myself decided to get Nacho a rubber shark and bone. The bone is still intact, but the shark did not last 5 minutes. I think Juice is a little upset that our gifts never have much lasting power.

On the poker front I'm still just wasting time. Juice keeps on convincing me to "come and worship", but all I do is lose a few chips every hour. Need to get good before I go to Vegas next week. Or might just try the all in strategy. Feel a bit bad that even kids are beating my game. But unless I start focusing I'll get nowhere. And I doubt they'll allow me to setup Texas Calculatem

Looking to more positive things, I've been hired to help develop some betting strategies on the betfair exchange. So far I have created a spreadsheet that downloads live prices. This will let us plug real time prices into our algorithms. The next step is to get a load of historical data into a database, and to chart some models to see how they perform.
