NOT a winning poker player. Someone who found a system he can work with RB & LB.
What's the attraction here?

Good luck J, really impressed by the amount of discipline you have as a 20 year old. Wish I had 1/10 of it when I was that age, pretty sick. I'll be following. GOGOGOGOGO

Who cares if people are RB grinders.

There are bankers (and other professions) where the main bulk of their income comes from 'bonuses', which they earn by earning their company moniessss.
It's just like that. You get a bonus for being so sick for the company simple as. Keep doing your thing Jdawg!! Haters gonna hate.
If i could earn $60/hr i'd do it no matter what!!

It doesn't mean that you can't beat the games for a decent ROI. It means the marginal benefit of adding lots of tables>the marginal cost, and therefore you play a s**t ton of tables. Naturally, as you add tables, your return per table is going to be less, but still positive. To put it simply, you are absolutely maximizing your $/hour.

The reason Josh (and pretty much everybody on Merge) has a low ROI pre-RB is because of high rake, the fast structure, the high percentage of decent and good players, and just the general nature of the ST's. If you make $60/hour at these, that's just as good as the cash game player who makes 10BB/hour at 3/6 (including RB).

I know a lot of the comments ITT were joking, and that's all good. But to anyone who was being serious I would just like to say: You are a moron

Well said. Thinking otherwise is like saying "lol, i don't get math". (The other alternative is "lol, i don't like money", but even most morons like money).




T-3 days and counting! I'm getting just a little vicariously nervous...

Lmao! Speaking of "well-written posts/responses", I reread my OP last night and saw how many spelling errors and grammar errors I made, got pretty tilted about that tbh. And somehow moved one of my paragraphs to a whole different section...w/e, I tried to make a good post and sfobv failed .

Thx man, I wish I had 1/2 of what I have now when I was 19 tbh lol . Having BF happen really opened my eyes and made me realize I need to take advantage of what a great opportunity I've had because of poker.

___________________________________________

Gl to everyone grinding on SundayFunday. I don't think I'll be playing any today, though I might sneak in a short session as I don't have anything planned as of yet and Bears and Packers both have bye weeks.

One thing I am definitely going to be doing is getting my setup redone on PS. I bought a table mod a while back with another person, but haven't set it up yet, so definitely need to do that and I need to DL tableninja on this new computer as well. So gonna do that for sure, this is the mod I bought btw, seems pretty solid and it has a TN patch which is great.

Anyway, glgl to everyone playing today


Halloween ftw

Yo ima let y'all finish, but I don't even like tatoos (sp?) on women, normally its a turn off. I like the chick in OP because:

Red Hair
Big tits
Nice arse
Pretty Face
Big lips
Plus she looks pretty, but dirty at the same time.

PERFECT WOMAN

I dont understand something, why is everyone whining in this thread: http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/29...y-now-1113147/ ,how miserable there life is after BF while they could do the same thing you did. Move to Merge, Bodog or Cake and grind again. Some people whine while they say they have been pro for 4-6 years, well that should have brought in some decent cash I assume, at least to start over at a new site or grind live poker.

Living costs money.

Being young and naive makes it hard to hold on to money.

Being pro doesn't demand you save more than the money required to play poker.

Yeap pokerfish_, pretty muchw hat Doggz said. That's why I included in my OP that it really is important for us guys who grind for a living to save $'s because simply put, we just don't enough. Since basically coming home from Vegas broke the day after BF, I've been pretty careful to not spend more $'s than is needed, I actually felt like an idiot spending $110 on 2 bottles of cologne last thursday when I was at the mall, this is the type of **** that I'm trying to cut down on in my spending habits.

Thx man, I hope it goes problem free as well .

Honestly I'm not totally sure, I just knew before I bought this one that there was a TN patch. I totally agree with u on that too, I like the supernova themes from when I checked em out.

Well about this time tomorrow I'll be getting ready to head to the bus station to go into Ohare airport. Working on getting packed atm and cleaning up my room etc. Might be going out tonight but not sure, anyhow, I will most likely update this again on Wednesday if we get set up relatively quickly in our apartment. Pretty excited, hoping there's no problems like there was in Canada

Glgl everyone on the grind
