Haha its just graphs of op losing, don't nobody want to see that! I played all morning yesterday, lost a little on stars and a fortune on party.

Off to Glasgow today for a couple of days. While hastily packing my bag this morning I found a quarter dollar in the side pocket and just held it for a few seconds while fighting back the tears.

God I miss Vegas.

Dont think I ever posted this. Paid a street performer to let me rock out on his drums while pished outside the Bellagio in a kilt. And boy did I rock out.

That's so weird coz I wish I could be a high stakes crusher! Let's switch lives bro

My volume has been paltry this month, slowly getting back to normal amounts now. Got this weird thing going on where I'll play about 1200 hands which takes <2 hours and I feel like I've been playing alllllll day. Motivation is not strong, but it'll get there! I've had to cash out a lot of money lately for IRL things, so getting back to 200nl is about £3,000 away, but I can win that in a week



Stars is not going well, no graph til I rostucko there!

Will update a little more regularly as the motivation to play more each day comes back.

Biggest hand of the month, vs 2 fishies iirc. Great turn <3

                  Never had coaching, and I'm in 3 Skype groups. The most informative one is Fish Heads (doctor giving all the free strat), but by far the best one is team****ingheart. It will never die.

                  When I first started out I got PMs on 2p2 from guys who were at my level like ishter, TDA, birdayy etc and I started talking strat with them, forming groups, gaining contacts etc. Nowadays people rarely ask to add me on Skype any more for strat talk. Best advice I can give is find PGCs of those that are at your level and add them on Skype and form groups from there!

                  Finally feeling a little bit better, and I intend to keep my promise to God for sparing my life and make it to the mother ****ing top. August was a shambles, was a wee bit tilted at one point of the graph, see if you can spot it...



                  Took my driving test choc full of paracetamol, ibuprofen, immodium and lucozade yesterday. I did not pass. There was one point in the test 2 minutes in when I came to a stop at a red light on a hill and was chatting away with the guy, feeling really confident and relaxed and not on the verge of defacating myself for the first time in 5 days and then the lights changed and I brought the clutch up but didn't put on enough gas and stalled and started to roll backwards and a wanker in a Suburu behind me started honking like **** and I'm trying to stop the car rolling and can't find my handbrake for some reason in all the commotion I managed to flick on the windscreen wipers and it was just pure carnage.

                  Re-sitting in 2 weeks.
