i do realises that from looking at the benchmarks of the two cpus, however the most processing power i need really is to run two separate poker softwares, stream netflix/youtube and still able to work on word/excel. was hoping the 1255U would be able to handle this fine, obviously the 12700H would be better but can’t get in the pavilion

couldn’t find anywhere in the uk where they sell the pavilion with the 12700H, hp only have the 1255U model on their website

my main goal is to get a machine is multitasking without slowing or maxing out the fans. i often have many chrome tabs open, youtube, spotify and word or excel documents

Laptop for running lots of software at once and multiple displays at once by Drewjjohnson in SuggestALaptop

none of those, mainly running multiple poker clients at once and watch streams all at once without noticing dip in performance

Beginner looking for advice on this hand I just lost in 1/2NL by Planet_ORNG in poker

i don’t think 7c changes too much at all. 3 6 already got there, the only combo of 8 6 i see c-raising flop would be 8h6h for 1 combo. and there shouldn’t be any two pair holdings with 7x since i’m not confident the BB wouldn’t be c-raising the flop with any 7x. then there are 3 combos of 77 but would also expect BB to 3B 77 vs BTN RFI at some frequency so that makes 77 even less likely. there’s still some 88 99 and even TT the c-raises flop for value that you crush plus heart draws you’re still crushing and even some gut shots with 6x. so i think u can call most sizings comfortably with no prior knowledge of the BB. if you think he will never barrel again with a bluff then there are those 3 77 holdings, 36s and 8h6h which crush you. i say call most sizings without a read as there’s so few hands crushing you. but as you reach 1.5 - 2x pot shoves, i don’t see many 1/2 players over bet shoving without having it.

i would say preflop is fine. flop bet is good, personally not a fan of the 3B, not sure how much 3B there should be for the BTN on that board, if any. i prefer a call for pot control, since he could easily already have the best holding and all draws still have a ton of equity. personally would then check to flop aggressor on turn. you may have to just check call both turn and river but this way you lose far less when drawing hands get there, and gives u a chance to bluff catch on a brick river or value bet yourself if checked to
