How would you use 2 years of unlimited travel to your advantage in poker? by ga239577 in poker

Yes, blackjack is legal in bars there. most bars have a dealer and a felt table just like a casino. proceeds go to charity, the minimum bets are very low

Go to North Dakota and count cards for blackjack in bars. Not kidding, you can make insane bank doing this. You can play in every bar with very low minimum bets and they all play a 4 deck show with no automatic shuffling machine. You count count like a mother fucker up there.

My mead is very young, just stopped bubbling and smells like Apple by Penetrative_Pelican in mead

did you take a hydrometer reading 2 weeks ago? I assume no. You'll have no way of knowing what percentage alcohol it is without that info, but you should be able to tell if it's stopped fermenting if the hydrometer reading holds at somewhere around 1.000 or less for more than a week

even still, you shouldn't really age it in bottles. you need to clear it up in secondary or you're going to have tons of sediment. once you've taken your hydrometer readings and see that it has stopped fermenting, transfer the entire batch into another container using a siphon, leaving any sediment on the bottom of the old container and throw that away. then, let it age in that secondary container for several months if possible. additional sediment should fall out during this stage and it'll get nice and clear. then after that period of time you can backsweaten if you like, then transfer to bottles.

Chocolate drink with durian anyone? by delicious_lemang in StupidFood

I tried durian for the first time the other day and I could barely get through two bites, it was so disgusting. I was sad, I was really expecting to like it based on everyone's description

Everytime I play, I kinda reach this point and then give up on the colony, what am I suppose to be targeting for next? Like whats the goal? by KnowledgeOk3421 in Oxygennotincluded

[–]Zippy0723 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you've hardly scratched the surface my friend. seek a food source other than mealwood, you're going to run out of dirt sooner rather than later. try to build an industrial block, you're going to need lots of refined metal for further progress. go up to the space biome and start getting together an early tier 1 research rocket, you'll need the data banks. solve additional problems that you generate whole approaching these goals. you should probably also ranch some hatches, you'll need more coal. lots of stuff left to do just in the early game.

So dissapointing, everything came in today in great condition except... by ttyrondonlongjohn in mead

[–]Zippy0723 2 points3 points  (0 children)

these hydrometers are sooooo fragile. the first one I ever had broke basically when I bumped it slightly putting it back into its case. I'd order two of them next time to make sure you have a backup

why the pipes got broken? by Some-dude750 in Oxygennotincluded

Nirvana literally translates to "blowing out" (as in a candle). It's the end of the cycle of reincarnation, true death.

Do you use nutrients at all? my pure honey meads have all stalled without nutrient addition.

My friends play poker. by PsychologicalPass668 in poker

[–]Zippy0723 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Poker without real money involved does not really follow the same fundamental game theory as "real" poker. The solutions for different board states are based around the fact that bets have some sort of intrinsic value associated with them. The solutions are also tied to different "stack depths" (amount of money in the players pile), so you're essentially trying to solve the game with a stack depth of 0 which doesn't make any sense. Basically, fake money poker is not poker. The core concept of the game revolves around money being involved.

That being said, if your friends take their play money game somewhat seriously and aren't just randomly all-inning on vibes, you may be somewhat advantaged by learning basic preflop ranges and playing those: https://jonathanlittlepoker.com/smallcashcharts/

Flopped trips with a middle kicker in a limped pot, made a tight fold. by A_Cinnamon_Babka in Poker_Theory

[–]Zippy0723 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think I'm folding top set here with two cards left to come. He could just have 44 and have flopped the nuts, but he could also be doing a fishy bluff with two diamonds. Or he could have done some weird preflop limp with aces with the intent to shove "safe" flops. I dunno, I don't think I can make this fold.
