The story goes that this thread used to be called "Grinding Past 50nl Zoom". I made a bad joke about being busto and working in McDonalds, and said something like "can a mod please change the title of this thread to 'Grinding Past the Fries'?", at which point TDA reported the post to Bobo Fett who came in, actioned the request, and probably hasn't been back since! Good times

Month has been weird to say the least. Lots of swings!



The most disappointing part however is the downright uncomfortable heat at 100z, and the polar opposite at 200z!



I've never had back to back losing months in my 38 months as a poker pro. It's on a ****in knife edge!!!

Great bants today with blakk and smb and co on stream, really enjoying streaming at the moment
