Twitch

What is this twitch thing blowing up on 2p2 now? It looks like a idea I had years ago and pitched it too Graham the old owner here and he said I was onto something and now here we are,lol.

I am trying to read up on it as I post this but since we have tech people here like moose and wildbill.;)

Can you make money off of this?^-^

I for one look forward to a piggypie or pkrfce9 channel.

    I'm not much of a tech guy, more of a learn as you go type although this never seemed to work with my poker game for some reason.

    Never heard of Twitch, but it's been around for a while:
    Twitch.tv - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
  • Anyone watch or watching David Sklansky stream of him playing, What are your thoughts?
  • chat is hilarious, 7bb time to limp fold,LOL.
  • Sklansky back on, Plays AQ off on the button like me:o.

    Like watching him play for some reason,lol.
  • Another one I am into is PokerStaples, He is a mtt guy.

    I was not sure the first time I tuned in but enjoying his stream. He is always positive and answering questions while he plays.
  • Sklansky streaming, guess my AA losing for chip lead came at a good time after all.

    Except I am on shitty rogers internet.
  • what in the fuck! sklansky's wife just blacked out in the background and smacked her head off the kitchen table. Best part is he just keeps playing LOL.
  • best sklansky quote ever "I think you did pass out. I'm gonna check call and then raise."

    Ya you missed the drama last week, she has seizures and he says the docs don't know why, It was scary stuff.
  • well he is out already. :(
  • hahaha this is even better: the guy sitting to his left was "sacakewalk"

    sacakewalk is BILL FILLMAFF himself!

    didn't know he was still playing.

    what!? really? Did not know you played on wsop.com:p:D
  • haha Sue giving him shit.
  • sigh wish we can play on bovada, sit n go's look soft.
  • Kristy Arnett is now doing this, was watching her for a bit last night.

    Pokerstaples just got DDOS attacked, fuckers in the world got to ruin others enjoyment.

    Wonder if Comp can explain DDOS and if this could be a threat to streamers?

    Love when people reference things they don't understand like they know.

    DDOS = Distributed Denial of Service.

  • Guess you love yourself then.:D:-\
  • How is the play this bad in $27 buy in's. Watching bigdogpckt55 stream and like his play.
  • was a pretty crazy run, just finished watching the stream myself, his style is spot on in terms of reads and positioning, bet sizing and so forth, but the dude is just waaaayyy tooo splashy of a player, thats his style and all the power, but the dude went from 400 k to 100 k like 4 or 5 times, wtf, if he understood icm a little more why the hell would he be risking soo many chips sooooo often on complete air. just my .02 but entertaining as f$%@.

    Hoping I run as good as him this week in my mtt sit n gos and also plan to play the sunday milly for a 9mil guaranteee yahtzee!
  • Ya saw the 9 million Sunday million in the lobby, ya liking his reads just he needs to tone it down on the drinking,lol.
  • Yah he was definately drinking up a storm and I think that honestly caused him to not make it further in final table than he did but thats just me. On a side note, I do remember palm bays being "tasty as f$#@ so I may actually have to go and get myself some =)

    Also, depending how I do this week on the sitters or I may even choose to play some satties to it, but im up in the air if im going to play it or not, and depending how i do this week, maybe ill post a bap as well..... With good vibes like what you posted above, maybe ill just have to play it regardless.

    Honestly Do not know how this guy is a pro< I mean I am not bashing him I used to love watching him when he started his run it up series, but 2 years later the guy hasn;t cracked 2grand? LOL that is just pathetic IMO.

    Now as per who he is as a person> He is an amazing and awesome human being and a great entertainer. But He sucks at Running it Up Let's be Honest here.
  • Are you saying he hasn't won 2G's in the last 2 years? I'm not quite sure I understand your reply.

    According to Hendon Mob he is approaching $3M in winnings, almost catching me..;)
  • pretty sure he's got well over 6M in tournament cashes. I see the point you were making now though - I imagine you're talking specifically about the Run It Up series (the $50 into $2000 challenge) - to which I would argue that you can't be so results oriented - He's got an awesome style and knows what he's doing for sure!
  • Was thinking of doing an online BAP and use twitch.......

    How tough is it to get this set up? I'm clearly a computer fish.
  • Really easy - here I posted this in another thread:

    was just playing around with it. so far:

    1. create account at twitch.tv
    2. download streaming software called OBS (free)
    3. inside OBS, click "settings", click "broadcast settings", then "streaming service: twitch"
    4. Enter "stream key" on the next line, you get this from your twitch dashboard.
    5. some red text will pop up with reccomended settings, do what it says
    6. back to main screen, right click "sources" and then "add" - choose "monitor capture"
    7. click "start streaming" and then start spewing for our entertainment!

    I know how much he has won lol, I have met him in person also, I was just stating the facts about how, he puts out a runitup series then can't?

    All I am saying.

    Love the guy personally, and he is great for poker and the game! But I would much rather see a true grinder get a pokerstars sponsoreship like a couple buddies of mine, whom I cannot name names. And they have more winnings then Jason does to this day.

    Never said he is a bad player and doesn't win.

    I just think if you are making a runitup challenge, you should make your goal alot sooner than he has that is all.



    I know he is a busy guy and does alot of other stuff too! So the volume is small for the challenge, but why make a challenge then tier off from it once he gets all this exposure from it? If you ask me his run it up series is yes awesome and very entertaining, but as a viewer I stopped watching as he stopped running it up.

    As per his series is called #RunItUp


    No hate just curious.... As like I said, I know some others who desearve this more.

    It is like when they signed Vanessa Selbst. lmfao! Someone gets a backer binks 2 tourneys, and all of a sudden sponsored Donkey.





    SMH



    The time she completely donked off 300 grand to my man Prahlad Friedman >>> lol >>> then had the worst reasoning ever after.
