So upset. Stars had an update yesterday. I have never had a problem with HEM before when stars updated. This time all the hands stopped importing. It so happens, that I had decided to play a few hours without HEM. So just PS was open, and I figure it will upload into HEM later when […]

SSS (short stack strategy)
