Run Your Car on H2O and Gasoline - Is it a Joke?

Monday, June 30th, 2008
by Matthew Loop, DC

We all remember the days before there were high gas prices. The days when you could buy a gallon of gas for a little over a dollar. The days that you did not have to cancel your road trip because the people in the car could not afford the cost of driving from Los Angeles to Seattle. If only there were a way to experience those low gas costs again, so that you can fuel your car without worrying about whether or not you will be able to feed your family afterwards.

The interesting thing is, it takes weeks for the higher priced supply of oil to catch up, yet they still jack up the prices the same day. Again, we never see gas prices plummeting by 20+ cents in a day. If gas stations did that, they would still be selling the expensive gas for a lower price. The inexpensive supply of gas wouldn’t be congruent with the more expensive gas.

As consumers, it appears as if there is very little that can actually be done about this gouging. It’s extremely difficult for us to affect the price of oil since many nations (America at the top) are way too dependent on it. What we can do get smart and become aware of other proven alternatives. For instance, if you’ve ever had the idea to run your car on H2O, now you can!

HHO gas has swept the nation, as more and more people seeking relief from gas prices look for ways to improve their gas mileage and reduce their dependence on oil. It is so easy to create and works on any type of car, converting into a water/gas hybrid and allowing your car to run on water, saving you thousands of dollars every year in fuel costs.

And since all you need is just a little bit of water, this is not some massive inconvenience that you will need to deal with on a weekly basis. A gallon of water is all you need for over a quarter of the year of powering your car, and all you have to do is pour it into the contraption that you yourself created.

When you have the HHO gas, you will direct it into your auto’s combustion chamber where it will mix with your existing air-fuel solution. Believe it or not, this yields a phenomenally efficient, super effective, clean, green super fuel! You may be able to double your current gas mileage (MPG) by using this safe, tested and 100% proven strategy. Don’t worry about your warranty, as this conversion can be reversed anytime. It does not void the warranty by any standard.

In most cases, you will be paying less than 100 dollars for the entire system, and when it triples your gas mileage, that additional power means additional savings, so the system ends up paying for itself in as little as a few fill ups. You can make the system in just a few hours time and start saving right away with the easy step by step information you can find in several guides online.

It will be several decades before the oil companies loosen their hold on the throats of America. Until then, why not start taking away some of their profits by converting your car into one that runs on water. There is no reason not to try it out, and you will quickly see that the savings are incredible.

Is it Possble to Power Your Car With Water?

Sunday, June 29th, 2008
by Matthew Loop, DC

Oil companies have taken hold of Washington for far too long. They are getting richer by the day, despite working class individuals struggling to pay for their gas, and despite their own assertions that they are not trying to profit off of our misfortunes. But what if I were to tell you that there is hope - an alternative fuel source that allows you to improve gas mileage and save thousands on gas every year.

Many people are still skeptical about the idea of having a water / gas running hybrid, however it has been proven time and time again to work very efficiently. Folks worldwide are converting their cars with the water hybrid technology. This can be rapidly accomplished when H2O is combusted with gasoline and I’ll discuss it a bit further in this writing. Let’s answer a few important questions first, though.

1) How Can Water Run a Car?

In order for this feat to be possible, you must have a car battery produce electricity to electrolyze water so it can harness this powerful technology. Simply by following that, cars can extract gas, which is referred to as Brown’s Gas. This specific type of gas can create large enough amounts of energy to easily and safely power your car. The absolute final product of this process is oxygen and water, a much cleaner by-product than traditional car wastes!

2) Why Run Your Auto With Water?

Besides simply getting relief from high gas prices, using water to power your car is incredibly beneficial to the environment as well. After the hydrogen has been removed from the water and burned in your engine, it converts right back to water again. So there is no additional harm to the environment. Instead, all you are doing is creating water emissions, which are considerably safer for the environment and fighting global warming. In addition, water is essentially free, and by tripling your gas mileage you do not have to fill up at the gas tank nearly as often.

3) How and Is it Possible to Construct This Technology For Yourself?

Due to the oil company’s hold on corporate America, it is very difficult to find a premade engine supplement to add to your car and allow it to start running on water. But there are step by step guides you can get that show you exactly how to convert your car into the water/fuel hybrid. The systems are incredibly advanced, yet they are so simple that anyone can build the addition, even with very little automobile knowledge. And the cost is less than a hundred dollars, so considering the thousands of dollars you save every year, the benefits are impressive to say the least.

In my opinion, everyone should make the conscious decision to adopt this technological breakthrough to run their cars and trucks on water. The obvious reason for this is that it is very friendly for the environment. We have all taken the earth for granted for far too long and now we have an energy crisis on our hands! Water fuel hybrid systems do not contribute to the global warming epidemic nearly as much as conventional gas-powered automobiles do.

As high gas prices continue to rise, the ability to use a water car system instead is incredibly beneficial. Not only are you saving the environment, but your are providing relief to your wallet as well. Converting your car into a water car hybrid is the first step towards making all of our lives better.

Water 4 Gas - Hydrogen Conversion Made Really Simple For Cars

Sunday, June 29th, 2008
by Matthew Loop, DC

Sometimes I’m amazed how much time and money I probably wasted being skeptical about the HHO water car systems I had seem all over the Internet. Before I turned my car into a hydrogen powered hybrid, I had assumed that there was no way that I would get any form of gas relief from a system that involves turning my car into one that ran on H2O. But with nowhere else to turn for relief from high gas prices, I decided to give it a shot anyway and try to turn my car into one that ran on HHO gas.

The name is a tad misleading since it speaks of running your car on water and using water for gas. But here’s the real scoop and how it works. You don’t really store any hydrogen in your car / truck anywhere, which is a good thing. Compressed hydrogen is very explosive and hazardous! Instead, you actually manufacture hydrogen on demand by making a simple conversion system that most people can create in under 4 hours. If you opt to hire a mechanic, he / she can easily finish it in under an hour. Not too bad for years and years of gas price savings.

These systems are also incredibly easy to create, taking just a few hours of your time and a little bit of shopping at local hardware stores in order to find all of the necessary parts and pieces used to build this at home in your garage. After hooking it up to your car battery, a little bit of current is all that is needed in order to separate the hydrogen from the water and create the fuel you need to improve your car’s life.

After that, the mixture is then steered to your automobiles combustion system, which culminates in an super efficient combination of air, fuel, and HHO gas. This particular combination burns a lot cleaner and more effectively than your conventional mixture. The final product is a substantial increase in your miles per gallon (MPG). I think everyone would enjoy this result!

Now, a valid question that I’ve heard many folks ask is “Will it damage my vehicle?” I can say with absolute certainty….. not in the least. This super mixture, in all actuality, burns cooler and cleaner. It will, believe it or not, extend the life and endurance of your auto. Another important frequently asked question is, “Will it make my warranty void?” Nope. What many are unaware is that the hydrogen car conversion is 100% reversible. It is good to note that any process that is reversible cannot void your warranty! Some people are also curious as to how much water it requires. The truth is, it really doesn’t require much at all. A 16oz glass of water will last two to three weeks!

In the event it runs out, your system will not be interrupted. Make sure to keep it full though if you want to experience some incredible MPG gains! “What’s the cost, an arm and a leg?” Hahah… no! It’s very cheap. You can do the total conversion for under $100. This should be considered an investment that will pay for itself over and over again. Picture purchasing gasoline for half the price. How quick do you think that will add up?

Because of how little it costs to convert your car to run on water, there is no excuse to not at least try to take advantage of this money saving opportunity. You can reduce the carbon footprint your car leaves on the environment, improve the gas mileage and lifespan of your car, and even get a tax write off for using a car that runs off an alternative energy source.

Converting my car into a hydrogen hybrid was one of the best things I could have done for my car. It saved me thousands of dollars in gasoline alone, meant less emissions polluting the environment, and helped improve the life of my car. No longer am I slave to the oil industry, and no longer do I have to choose between gas and food.

How to Beat Texas Poker

Sunday, June 29th, 2008
by Johnny Vegas

Poker is one of the most exciting games that anyone can play. Knowing the simple rules of the basic game can open up the opportunity to play all the variations of poker. Playing the game is straightforward with very slight rule changes for each different version.

Very simple layout of the game can make it easy to play. Not depending upon the number of cards dealt or the version played, these steps are applicable to all versions. If a player knows the basics of the game of poker, he or she can become good enough to learn to bluff like a professional.

Depending upon table size and the type of game there can be any number of players. However, a dealer must be chosen but the deal can pass to other players, this dealer passes out the cards to the players. The role of the dealer is to decide who won the game and to regulate card deals.

After the dealer has shuffled them, the player to the right of the dealer cuts the cards. All the players place the ante into the middle. At this time, either the players can wait for the dealer to begin the game or they can bet, what is called a blind bet.

The dealer passes out the appropriate number of face down cards and, depending upon the version played, the appropriate number of face down cards. Then the players either bet again or they check showing that they do not want to bet. Checking or passing is a sign that the players do not feel the need to make the pot higher.

Checking or betting is done after each face up card is dealt or after the cards have been exchanged. When betting the players bluff their opponents. Bluffing is betting so that the other players assume you either have a great hand or a very bad hand.

The technique of bluffing is what differentiates this game from any other card game. The other games that involve bluffing also involve dice. The French word Poque means to bluff which is where poker received it name.

Through the game, then the betting player wins the hand if one player bets and everyone else folds. Calling is when a player will bet the same as the first bettor or raises the bettor’s bet. Folding is when a player thinks his cards are not good enough to continue.

If there are players who wish to see or raise the bet, then, after the last card has been laid out, there is a showdown. This is where all the remaining players flip over their hidden cards to see who won the hand. The highest hand wins the pot and the game starts over again.

Chips, which represent money in poker, are used to keep the betting orderly. Going “all in” is when a player bets all of their chips. A player is eliminated from the game if he or she has lost all their chips.

Poker is not a hard game to play if you know the basic rules of game play. The hardest part of the game is knowing when to bluff and when to fold your hand. Many people use poker as a means of income, this is not recommended unless you have developed your talent of bluffing.

You Must Consider Your Stack Size in Holdem Poker

Friday, June 27th, 2008
by John Splash

You need to know how many chips everyone has at the table to make good decisions in no limit holdem. Let’s list a few hands that show why stack size needs to be in your thought process. Then, I think you will agree that stack size is key.

Here is a very simple example of where stack size affects a decision. The game is NL $1/$2. You are in the small blind and everyone has folded. You have $500 and your hand is 44. If the big blind has only $25 in his stack, you could just push all in. You could even bet $8 or $10 planning to play to the end. This would surely be profitable.

Let’s say the big blind has $500. Now, the all in play doesn’t look so good. You will win the $3 a lot, but will get crushed when you are called. You don’t make enough $3 hands to cover the $500 loss when it happens.

How about this. Would you put $100k in there for the $3. If the only hand that calls you is A,A (1/220 times), this is what happens. You win three dollars 219 times and then, bam, you go broke.

If you could convince the guy with a $25 stack to only play A,A you can push all in and make money consistently. You will show a nice profit even without ever winning when he has A,A.

Now, let’s say you have 3,3 with $500. The blinds are $1/$2 and you limp in. The BB raises to $10. Depending on his stack you could call, fold, or raise.

Against his $15 chip stack you could argue for any option. So, now you go by what you know of this players game, to determine a move. With $40 you can fold pretty easily.

You only get your three of a kind 12.5% of the time and the max payout is only five times if you can even get an all in call. A $500 stack means you need to call or maybe even raise. With either play you can get enough value from the hand when it goes right.

6,7 suited is a hand that you should play when everyone has a lot of chips. There is plenty of money availiable to get big profits when you catch a monster. When no one has very many chips, you can’t make enough money when you hit the hand.

With A,A or K,K you will find yourself in some difficult situations when players have lots of cash. It’s very hard to know if these pairs are still good, so you will find yourself paying off people who hit the flop.

When stacks are short, you can play these hands all the way. You won’t be risking a huge chipstack with just a pair. Often the preflop bets will get you all in or to a point where you can push after the flop. So, this is an easier situation for playing with big pairs.

When everyone has radically different stack sizes this can get complex. Regardless, when you want to bet, you have to consider the stack size of each player involved.
