You can probably guess what the URL would be...  |

Look at the file names for most of the pages on the site and you can fill in the missing piece.  |

Gained a couple hundred $e. It's really a lot of luck. And like the earlier posters, I gained more in this post than i did playing.  |

The harsh truth...
Maybe if the bugs get worked out on poker so your e$ don't disappear, we could up the price per hand. I've never personally had a problem with the bugs, but apparently some people have had quite a bit vanish... although I think they might've just gotten carried away.  |

Poker is cool for making a bit of quick cash, but I'm sure a lot of people don't know anything about it since the link only seems to appear here! It's the most hidden part of einvesting!
I also find the hold radio buttons to be a bit small, I accidentially don't press the hold button when I mean to.  |

Yes that would be cool.
I haven't actually experienced the bug people were discussing above, but I did notice an interesting thing. I shall try to explain!
Scenario:
I have two windows open, one poker and the other one is the forum... and I post something in the forum and get e$ for that while I have the poker window open.
I then go back to play poker (without refreshing the poker page as it's already opened), the poker only recognizes the amount I previously had and without giving much thought, I continue to play. Now the poker does not recognize the money I gained while posting, and that money seems to vanish as the poker seems to write over your master amount.
I hope I was clear with the bug I experienced. It's not a big problem since I have come up with a prevention method:
Don't keep two windows open while playing poker and posting on the forums. Keep them as separate experiences so you are only doing one at one time. |

| From what I understand, there are a number of "quirks" with the poker code, and that's why Benjamin hasn't made the link more obvious. |

| I sure wish Ben would up the stakes on the poker sim. After the last 2 weeks, it seems I'm MUCH better at poker than I am at picking stocks. |
