Hot Players, Cool PXF Update

Each day I hand type the results of people who cashed in UB $100+ tournaments into our software program, which then outputs all the html that you see on ExtremeTilt.com for the leader boards.

Leader Board Results

Because of this, I notice players who seem to be heating up. Over the weekend, I saw that J FREE is back, winning one $100 and making the final table in the next. Krumster has cashed three times already in December, and TTTTTTTTTTTTT remains on fire. Miraclegro is another player who popped up in October and has had great results since that time (6 cashes in October, 6 in November, and 2 already in December). Also psp1, an original Extreme Tilt member, is crushing as well. He went out 15th in the $200 last night after his KQ was busted by the big stack's 54 SOOTED. Well done all!

I did have two cashes this weekend, so things aren't all bad. But the run of horrible beats in the bigger tournaments continue. It's not that I'm just losing raises, I'm losing when I'm way ahead.

Now I'm not going to post a lot of bad beats here, but I want to test the next update for PokerXFactor's Hand Viewer (it automatically animates your hand history into a Flash movie).

Right now, people have to post links of the hand history if they want to show a hand in a blog or in a different newsgroup. I think that's fine, but I know people ALSO want to be able to actually show the flash movie elsewhere. So I think we are going to put a special link on the hand viewer page so will pop up a window with the HTML ready to go. Maybe we'll support this with advertising somehow. Then they can just copy and paste the code elsewhere. Pretty cool huh? We want the PXF Viewer to be used everywhere.

So below is a test just to see how the small version looks in the blog. What do you think?

It has to be a bit small so it does not blow out the page, but you can then click on a link for a bigger view (and to vote or add comments to the hand). I might as well show you my horrible beat in the $200. It's a hand I would NEVER even want to be in but I was the big blind, flopped a STRAIGHT ... and you can see what happens.

Good luck this week all!

EDIT: Okay, I first posted a larger version and it broke my very limited blog HTML (the leader board was pushed all the way down). So I had to go with a pretty small size board below. The cards, on my PC, are readable but not the betting so much. Maybe we'll offer several different sizes.

I registered for the player and logged in but the videos will not play. Any suggestions?

You don't need to be registered to see the video. You do need a browser that supports flash. Can you see the flash sample on extremetilt.com?

If you continue to have trouble, go to the pokerxfactor page and click on help. Open a support ticket there.
