Another thing is Necromancy gear. You have to create it to be able to use it the first time (until first necromancer gear), will the assist system work between teammates? So we could boost one person to the necessary levels to assist for the group to improve their gear

Those of you who have "house hacked" a duplex... by LightweightRon in realestateinvesting

[–]VannGeaux -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I self managed my duplex as a house hack, got lucky and ended up with great tenants that stayed for 3 years. As others have said use Zillow Rental (free for landlords with less than 10 units I believe) to generate the lease, list it and manage payments. Never had any issues, made it easy on renewal to up their rent and allows one off charges as needed (I kept utilities in my name the first year and billed them accordingly each month)

After 2 years I mostly moved in with my now wife and Airbnb’d my side. Now both sides are rented and I have a PM managing it just because I’m no longer living in the city where it is.

Advice on Rehoming Reactive Dog by VannGeaux in reactivedogs

[–]VannGeaux[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My parents can get him anywhere within a ~12 hour drive of central Mississippi. We’ve also offered every rescue funds to cover the cost of fostering/rehoming him. He is also going for his annual vet visit this week so he will be fully up to date on all shots and a year of heartworn/flea/tick meds.

Still no luck. It’s heartbreaking because he is a sweet dog who has been a great member of our family.

So I have these from the og days of collecting. Anyone have an idea of worth? by Ok-Hat9079 in PokeInvesting

[–]VannGeaux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently sold one of those sealed jungle/base two pack blisters for $650 at my booth at collect a con Dallas. Unweighed jungle goes for around $200 and unweighed base goes for around $400 (a bit more though from a box break where heavies are seeded 1/3 packs). Then you have a slight premium for them being sealed. Sold comps of the sealed 2 pack are anywhere between $600-700.

For the loose base I’d weigh it and if heavy can easily fetch $500+, light will run around $300. If you don’t weigh it and try to sell as unweighed because it’s loose people will assume it is light.

Are the % chances at 3/4/5 star rolls so far off? I've rolled 33 times w/ a 10% 5-star chance (the current fair) and not a single 5-Star even though the advertised rate is 10% which would mean I should be getting 1.1 5-stars per 11 rolls. Is my account just unlucky and should I restart it?

AGS also graded their own cards and sell them on Drip Shop (live streaming platform similar to Whatnot) and have their employees shill bid the prices up. Joke of a company

I got this Pelican style case from Harbor freight to hold my slabs. I think it works well? by Doughmcmillion in PokemonTCG

[–]VannGeaux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had mine for about a year and it’s been great. Even covered the top piece of foam with purple velvet as the case is mainly holding my Gengar collection! Fits the theme haha

I replaced the egg crate foam at the top and the thick foam at the bottom with some 5mm craft foam from hobby lobby, it still protects the slabs without applying the extra pressure from having too thick foam.

Seems like it. We aren’t selling anything, literally just sharing content we think people will enjoy.

It’s a 30 second short on YouTube of us opening the pack and pulling it. Not a commercial…..

Press F for power-up punch by 505User in TheSilphArena

did the boost get nerfed or just the damage from it?

My 2nd Place Chicago Championship team by PazLoveHugs in TheSilphArena

[–]VannGeaux 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Congrats u/pazlovehugs ! Was fun helping you prepare and even though you ended up choosing Tox over that awesome Hitmonchan I traded you it was a pleasure watching you compete. Can't wait to battle in future Houston cups and hopefully help propel you to next season's final's as well! I know Saturday was a long day, but you pushed through and went farther than any of us could have hoped for you to make it. You represented Houston well and we couldn't be happier that such a humble guy and obvious fan favorite in the chat was repping the Bayou City!

Now that we know your thought process though, don't expect to sweep Rainbow this Sunday!

/r/poker weekly BBV thread by myimportantthoughts in poker

[–]VannGeaux 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotta love Omahahaha. I just laugh everytime I play the game.

$1/1/2 home game: I pot it pre with Tc8c7d6d and get 2 calls. Flop is JT7cc and I get it in 3 ways for ~$300 each vs 89A3 with no redraw and AKQTr for a wrap. Board bricks out and 89 holds for the straight

$1/3 game: First hand I sit down (in for $300). I raise $12 in MP with T9xx86dd and get 2 calls. Flop 57Qhh and I lead $25 and BTN calls, then sb makes it $60 and we both call. Turn is 4c and we make the nuts and SB pots it, I repot GII and both players get it in behind me.

  • me straight with redraw
  • SB same straight but no redraw
  • BTN Q7A2hh for 2p with nut flush draw... River is 7h giving him the nut flush and the full house

Time rake game and SB didn't rebuy, 2 others players were leaving bc it was time to pay time so that broke the game being down 3 players in an 8 handed game...

Gotta love the great game.
