October Goals
 
Play 20k hands (cash) and a couple of different tourneys. Hopefully I'll show a decent profit.

play no poker and resurrect my Uni career

I have two assignments for each subject at Uni. i don't really go to lectures or tutes, which makes the assignments a lot more difficult. Legal Ethics is probably the worst subject imaginable (couple of weeks ago the lecture was titled "the Ethics of Care and Virtue"... i forgot to bring along my CareBear).

i've started doing volunteer work for two full days a week (8-5), which is painful with the sleeping patterns i've developed. i play in two b'ball teams and have been trying to do gym at least three times a week.

also i've been real busy trying to get this girl to like me :)

so that's where my time has been going.

i don't think i've played at all this month. i played a little bit in September but whenever i would start off a session badly, i would end up playing for hours (even after i got un-stuck). I really don't have the time for long sessions right now. i played ok at times but ran horribly and lost a decent amount for Sep (10k i think but I won 5-6k on Betfair)

Uni finishes mid-November. after that i'm looking at doing a short Stockholm/Prague/Amsterdam/Copenhagen trip. after that i will have the time/focus to for some serious pokering :)

anyway just letting you guys know i'm still alive!

warning TOO LONG DON'T READ

MAYHEM45 10-14-07 03:09 PM

lol thx for the WARNING asshole.

Talking Poker 10-15-07 12:56 AM

LOL...

Glad to kow you're still alive and kicking, sjay. Sounds like you have your priorities right too. GL with everything - poker will be waiting for you when you are ready for it in a few months.

Looking forward to the HU Part 2, whenever that comes...

Oh, where are you volunteering? It's with the girl, isn't it? :rolleyes:

Hmmmm the volunteering thing is slightly embarrassing, but not related to any girl or any motive like that. to compensate, here's a picture of me from the w/e with a girl touching her own boobs

i really need to get back to work but v uninspired :(

edit: sorry no more crap in october goals thread, i promise

Nice tan.

Aequitas58 10-17-07 07:24 PM

My goal for this month was to concentrate on playing hands and attaining Goldstar VIP. Well, GS is a day or two away, but I'm running so bad lately. I feel like I'm on a two-week slump, which is awesomer when I average 750-1000 hands / day. :(

C'mon Lee, time to make it rain for your boy.

Talking Poker 10-17-07 11:24 PM

Wow, you're playing a lot.

Do yourself a favor and set up a FT rakeback account.

Aequitas58 10-17-07 11:28 PM

That's something I been thinking about. I already have an account w/out rakeback... but my beautiful wife might sign up for one. :)

Talking Poker 10-18-07 12:14 AM

I think she most definitely should. Immediately.

With the number of hands you are playing per month, you are looking at quite a bit of RB... depends how many fay you play and what stakes, but I wouldn't be surprised if you she could be taking home 4 figures in RB every month.

MAYHEM45 10-20-07 05:31 PM

1.Get back to even.
2. Learn PLO.

Aequitas58 10-20-07 09:30 PM

1. Attain Goldstar.
2. Make every session a losing session.


So far, so good on both!

burty1 10-20-07 09:44 PM

Hmm...I also don't have rakeback at FT...I was transferred directly from Doylesroom (where I had RB) and they told me they could not give it to me at FT...
I was under the assumption that they could track your internet location and could tell if you simply changed accounts...in other words, couldn't simply open a new account under your wife's name for instance...
However, could you open an account under a father-in-law and play under his name? Again, basically the question is: Can they track where you are playing from...could they tell if you did this?

Wes 10-20-07 09:49 PM

You are wrong burty. I opened "my dad's" account under same computer/same ip that I had been playing on for a while.

burty1 10-21-07 09:04 AM

Very interesting...did you cashout your account first? How did you fund your "father's" account? Does he have a Paypal account or did you use his credit card...or how did you do it?

Anyone else done this or have any experience with this in any shape or form?

Talking Poker 10-21-07 10:37 AM

Some thing may be better off not spelled out step by step on puclic message boards.

But I will tell you that I know of plenty of people who didn't originally have Full Tilt RB accounts and do now.

In unrelated news, you should PM me sometime.

MAYHEM45 10-25-07 02:20 PM

HU PLO is fun as hell.

MAYHEM45 10-26-07 02:37 AM

Reel Deal 10-26-07 10:14 AM

Pics por favor.

BTW, a college chick with fake tits?? WTF??

bunny 10-26-07 10:33 AM


I was going to bite my tongue and keep my thoughts to myself, but I can't. :o

I will most probably get boo'ed for saying this, no offense...but I must say it anyway.

Seems to me you're fooling yourself into thinking you're happy, being with all this many women and getting drunk all the time. That's not happiness, that's loneliness imo (although many male members, as do your male friends, will think otherwise). You have lots of money, yet you don't know what you want out of life, that to me is a bad mix and could only get you in trouble.

You might want to think about all the women you sleep with...think about what will happen should one of them get pregnant with your child, one day. What then?

Have you ever thought of seeking some sort of counseling? Many people don't seek help because it's too costly, but that wouldn't be a problem for you. So do yourself a favor and talk to someone, before you ruin your life. I honestly think they might help you...find yourself.

Reel Deal 10-26-07 11:08 AM

Bunny, I understand you have a different perspective as a woman but you're way, way, way overreacting. I was basically the same guy as JD in college (minus the gigantic bankroll) and I turned out just fine. Let the boy enjoy the lifestyle because, believe me, it doesn’t last forever!!

BTW, if this type of behavior warranted counseling... well, lets just say there aren't enough counselors in the world.
