Yesterday was a success and happy to be one day away from my trip to Vegas. I'm really busy with a lot of stuff but its nice to be distracted at times so that time can fly a little fast to get to the next step.

I need to dig deep to get this ride in today. Probably will go stretch in the jaccuzi and then hit the bike. Ive found if I procrastinate Ill most likely blow off the ride for any excuse.

Busy day, but going well. Knocking off massive lists of tasks, but is all good as tomorrow I start a nice work vacation. Need to get my March goals ready which will be quite different but will load up on the exercise and weight loss goals. Got 15.7 miles in what was an incredibly windy day. I had to ride more inland and in residential neighborhoods. Have 15.3 miles miles left for tomorrow. I cant check into the Rio under 4 so may hit it off in the morning and try to leave by 11.

I went into my old job to get my last check and was surprised the manager told me to come in the back area where the action is. I couldnt believe how busy they were at like noon, unreal. Saw one guy who goes to San Diego State and is a business major and has what could be a useful skill so glad to connect with him and will have a drink in a few weeks when I get back.

Going to work tonight. The funny thing is Ive collected more cash from customers than Ive earned and they have no office here. Good thing Im not a scammer as that could be a few MBIs (Model Buy-Ins). Im going to continue on the job for sure, but will be taking this week off and then work a few days and then another week off, lol.

Looking forward to Vegas, but no degening coming up. I gotta be strong as I can't go down the hole for sure. Im coming back for the beginning of the WSOP so I can make up for it then .

Was downtown tonight for work. I had some down time and walked around for like an hour. I would snap move to downtown, it looks awesome with so many bars, clubs, and restaurants. Would have to have a parking spot though for sure.

Everything is great, I have a nice little trip planned, but of course the annoying fact my radio knob broke and I cant turn the volume down or off, sucks balls, lol. I need to buy a pair of pliers tomorrow to sort that out.

Looking forward to closing the book on my first month of goals and push into March which could be a very exciting month.

All packed up and ready to go. I decided to leave early as Im really anxious to get out of town. Im going to stop in Lake Elsinore as I lived in that lovely place for three years. I first played poker at the LE Casino back around 2001, those were the days. I lived in Tuscany Hills which overlooks the lake and backs up to Canyon Lake. CL was MILF central back in the day, wonder if its the same.

See you in Vegas!!

First night in vegas was fun. Had some drinks with a friend and his gf until 4 and hitting the sack now at 6. Didnt get my last ride in. It took me over 1.5 hours to check in n it was cold as balls by the time I settled in. Will recap goals, March goals and a not so exciting TR tomorrow. Not gonna gambol on this trip, kinda weird for me, but keeping on track of my priorities at this point.

Sup RF,

I am headed to SD in a week from the east coast. I am planning on playing some poker while I am down there. Other than the ocean's 11 casino, is there anywhere else you can play? I normally play 2/5 nl (500-800 max).

Do you also have any suggestions (hot spots) for a tourist like me?

Palomar Card Club and Village Club are both short drives from Downtown SD and have exactly what you're looking for, both are small rooms but you will enjoy the action. Good Luck Benzy.

thought you learned your lesson with twitch. Half decent ideas dont work unless executed with premium quality

Anything you'll do with the broke brothers will results in you losing 3-5k and maybe more. The only reason zima did not blatantly said they were ******ed and worthless is that he knows no amount of shaming will ever get them to pay as they are in debt to him, tons of others and their family. While i was having issues i had tons of people who dealt with them PM me and you don't know 5% of their story. They cant bring themselves to take anything seriously and when they do they are not very good performers at anything. It's the SwAg #yOl0 generation.

sad to see you going that path. Drunken and hooker tours is an already satured market and is completely illegal and easy to get killed over. My neighbors was in the tour business and my ex brother in law too. It's hardcore dangerous. My brother in law was a local so its fine but hes a dangerous man himself. The other is from the UK and the only reason hes still ok is because he takes a market that no one tries to and he befriended a neighbor police captain.

I think Oceans is the only 2/5 game, they spread 2/3 and 5/10 at Palomar, mistercockblock info is right on those rooms. There is a San Diego thread in the Brick and Mortar section where u can get exact info.

Great meeting you in Vegas yesterday and looking forward to hooking up in SD. If anyone wants to see an intense story check out his thread. This is a big dude and would not want to tangle with him back in the day when he living life a little differently as now.

What are you talking about Twitch? My offer to the Broke Brothers has nothing to do with Twitch as if it matters.

I've already conducted business with the Broke Brothers in person with cash on several different trips to Snooky. My business rating for them is A+. I could care less what it is with you as you're a self-admitted troll and you kinda stink and a waste of space in general. If others come forth and claim the brothers owe them Ill pay up to 5K to buy that debt, with Zima's being first. Unless they were throwing babies off buildings or are human traffickers I really care less what happened with other people as like I said, my business was great with them.

What point was hooker tours ever mentioned? I suggest you keep anything you assume about me or my business to yourself as you are just going to look more of a fool, but that pretty much is well known across most of 2p2 anyway.

Yazzx asked if he could leave his side of the story here tomorrow after he wakes up, but doesnt want to derail my thread. I have no problem at all if he and six dot man want to talk this out, but only for the next 24 hours, it ends tomorrow by 1:45 PM Pacific time and then is a dead topic for discussion here please. I need to post my review of goals, next month goals and my trip review but they can wait as I want to understand this situation, but still don't care as my offer to the brothers will stand regardless of what comes out.

I can say my Vegas trip went extremely well. I saw 5 out of six people I needed to talk with. The one I missed is a big dog that I've talked with over a year and it wont be a problem to wait a few weeks to a month to talk, but I'm going to lock his equity at where I'm at now if he wishes to join up .

Im back in SD and need to work out of my house for a few days and see if I catch the last few days of the LAPC. Great to be back in my own place on a rainy day with a ton of tasks to knock out.

Come on man u cant go around posting crap like this about us, it's complete bull****... We dont owe anyone a penny except Z ima (who we have already paid around $600 back to, and he knew before that we could take a while to pay any debts) and now our grandad, who btw is pretty wealthy, the money he loaned us wont affect him in anyway (but that has absolutely nothing to do with u or 2p2). I dont know where ur getting ur information from but we only owe zima and the figure we owe is less than $5k... i've never owed anyone in the poker/2p2 community before zima, except pitabread a tiny bit but I paid him back before i created broke bros thread

RF knows "our story" more than pretty much anyone on 2p2... we met before the thread, he is the reason we started it..

i'd love to know who u think we owe, and how much... and who are these "tons of people" sending u PMs lol

i really dont want to post here about this but i feel i have to defend myself... u cant go around saying this **** about us when u know literally nothing...

e: gonna try my absolute best to try not post about this here again..

Sorry man I didnt want to make a big deal when I posted on your thread as this was dead over there and didn't want to kick up dirt. That is why I just wrote I didn't want to get involved with the situation at all. But **** it, if he wants to come here and insult me, than he is free game. Im tired as balls from Vegas, I got no sleep and I am to lazy to work on pictures and goals so this is perfect entertainment as I smoke bowls all day resting as starting tomorrow I need to get to work.

As for what you said about me being the reason you started your thread that needs to be clarified. I didn't pay u to do it or hold a gun to your head. All I know is we were smoking fatties and drinking brews at Elephant and we talked about the value of a 2p2 thread and I told you that I felt it would take a year to have something that could worth something n u turned around and get 2K hits a day and make podcasts within a few days. I felt bad about the dropped Queensco stake and we haven't talked since July, and wow look at that, its a year later .

Maybe Im wrong but I do believe I named you The Broke Brothers and as a copywriter that may have been my finest work , but if I didn't whoever did is a genius, so Im hedged on that one.

Nice relaxing day. I watched Cop Land, Stallone is annoying but this flick had so many incredible actors that its pretty decent. The last three days Ive gone off a diet as I hit my Feb. goal by 5 pounds and will start a new goal for March starting tomorrow. I wrecked this pizza and Big gulp, this will not happen again until April .



Today I was pretty much dealing with tons of trolls. I really get steamed easy as negative trolls are so pathetic. I was even trolled in a live stream after I just said hi to the host. I am known as Rehabbing "Uncle Fester" Fish in some places now, lol, it was kinda funny but that name is perma-banned on my Twitch.

I love fun trolls like this guy. He is not a troll who takes, just look at his thread savers .

http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/54...i-try-1480238/

Its amazing how he can run his ****ed up country into the ground, play poker and also post on 2p2, he is very dynamic even for a mass murderer.

Im happy to say I got increased business funding for the next few weeks as Im probably going to LA and for sure NOLA and Denver. I also had a discussion with a teacher/coach/athletic director who has been in the loop for the full five years Ive been on my start-ups. He is interesting in investing, but Im not ready to take money, but could be soon. I won't take outside money because I have family sources that can expand by a lot if I hit benchmarks. I have two close family members sitting on some big stacks and the timing is great, but need to get some more progress, but feels great to be able to make moves knowing I have extra now.

Im starting to model hunt again as I need 10 MBI to launch my Twitch 2.0 and I have it now and will proceed. I will search by myself as no one wanted to help me pick models and use people internally to give advice so I don't drop that ball.

Big day tomorrow as I have some proposal responses due and will be making some moves based off how that goes.

Will update all my stuff in the afternoon tomorrow.

Have a great night all!!

Hard to sleep as I bombed out ten emails to models in SD and LA and getting some great bites already. Im only going to work with 420 Nurses for at least the next three girls. They are amazing and there is a caliber at the top that is unreal. Their site is like the Facebook of the hottest stoner girls on the planet. You have to weed them out as there are some average and no so great.

The one thing Ive learned about models is once they decide they want a gig they start to blast your email and phone with pictures and they dont mind getting risque very quick, March is looking great already .

Got my four hours sleep and ready to make this an awesome day.

Watched this video from the godfathers of poker Twitch, great stuff.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-NCV...0&spfreload=10

Need to wake up and get more focused today. My first step is to make a list, but sometimes taking the step to make the list is the hardest part.

Jamie has over a thousand bots on his channel that are programmed to ask him the same dumb question over and over.

He's not the godfather of twitch he's an abuser. His real viewer count is pretty low compared to the other big guys. He'll eventually get banned. You can try yourself. if you see a dumb tard asking him what site hes playing on(when it says pokerstars in massive letters) or whats that plastic smoking stick in his mouth you can try to talk to the same guy and he'll never answer you.

Maybe I worship false prophets but Ill stick with Staples being an extremely important poker Twitcher.

Im not really sure where you get your info or if you pretty much assume 100% of your assessments.

Try what? Using bots, Im not into that as how can you see your natural growth if you use black hat techniques such as that? I've had quite a few conversations with Staples on his and other streams so he is the real deal to me.

Prop bet on the over/under when he gets banned? What is your number?

He won't, there's so many guys with bots they just dont care anymore.

Twitch is like ipoker, they just joined with the bot owners and are happy to milk it while it works.

All it does is make jamie a shady person.

I guess we agree that bots are not good, but some other stuff we are on the other side of the fence.

Its time to put my popcorn away as the show will not take place and the other parties can hash out their differences elsewhere. No matter I look forward to hopefully doing awesome business with the brothers that creates multiple win-wins including: them, me, interested viewers, my other partners, people who get their cash, and some others. We will soon see as the bros and I still need to have a talk about what this is all about. Doing business from the Americas to Asia is not easy due to times and some of the toughest times Ive had working remotely was when I lived in Asia for a few years.

February goal review coming up..

February Goals
{104.7} 120 miles on my bike (try 4 rides a week)
{53} 50 miles walking fast (I like to decompress from tilt and process info by walking by beach)
{12 lost} 7 pounds lost (from 230 to 223)
{27} 60 hours poker (both online and live count)
{13} 4 hours a week off-table work (16 month) (videos, 2p2 strat, discussion, would consider coaching)
{2} 2 trips (Mexico, LA, or Vegas most likely)

Im adding one mini-goal that goes for the last 7 days of the month.

{Done} 100% elimination of: Candy, chips, soda, red meat, other crap.

I failed on many, but I hit my weight goal which was the number one goal for sure. Walking is very important to me and feel its the key to my current goal of getting under 200 by July 1st.

My poker was pathetic, I'm very distracted and since money is so important as I have a ton of small to medium tasks that need envelopes to be passed and things to be done that I just can't do on my own the poker playing will be very little until at least April.

I only lost a pound the last week when I went on the super strict diet. I feel so much cleaner but went a little bad in Vegas with food and the pizza/Big Gulp did not help. I will not be starting March with a strict diet goal but I will think of everything I put in my body, but will enjoy a treat when wanted.

Will do March and a few longer goals and then a simple trip report with photos .

March

{ } 100 miles bike (this is going to be hard as Im traveling so much)
{ } 55 miles walk (can walk anywhere)
{ } 8 pounds lost (if I get to 210, Ill be stoked)
{ } 0 hours poker or gambling (I can't waste the time or funds, this won't be easy as I'll be in casinos all the time, but I need to get strong. Vegas was brutal not gambling. Only exception is if I'm broadcasting on Twitch, but there is very little chance I come back on by the end of March).
{ } 10 hours off-table work for month (I love reading HH, threads, blogs, articles, books and will fit this in with no problem)
{ } 5 trips (I count overnight and in a different area than SD as one. I will be hitting LA, NOLA and Denver for sure so just need two more and another trip to TJ and/or Vegas would be great to fit in.

I won't put a diet goal for now, but need to ramp that up for sure. I will start with soda and only drink water and see how many days Im at...today is day 1!

April

{ } Relaunch my Twitch show by the last day of the month.
{ } Launch two interactive support sites, one for the show and one to support my new company which I'm most likely incorporating in the islands. I own a legitimate company that is registered out of Valledupar, Colombia. I need to eventually close this company and reopen that one in Bogota. I closed my US based company due to non-use. The process of this is a bitch, but is needed for so many reasons.

May

{ } Enter a first round seeding period and create a five million dollar valuation from within one week of the time I enter the round. I will try my best to fund from family members first in a pre-first round build-up to give me more strength with the equity I trade. I want to enter this period without any type of desperation for funding, but have the leverage of a self-funded project that is looking for more to make a much bigger boom and creating a climate of collaboration with those with similar goals, mind-sets and ability to take action and communicate properly. I already have $110,000 of my own money wrapped into my business. I think a lot of people think I'm playing games, but I'm a lot stronger than people think as I have massive connections in multiple industries that I'm dusting off and putting into action.

June

{ } Have my tech team in a 120 day countdown to launch my main platform

{ } Play and bink Event Five WSOP .

{ } Hopefully the seeding goes well and I can play more events

{ } After an event or two I embark on a lightening quick trip to Latin America, Europe and Asia. Best way is to get to Colombia and jump the pond on Avianca on this awesome route to England, make a stop in Scotland and hopefully get to India, Thailand, Cambodia and back to the US. Going to kill myself, but Im used to moving fast.

July

{ } Go to the 2p2 party in Vegas

{ } Play in at least the Little One for One Drop

I will be going to LA tomorrow for sure to the LAPC. While there is always a chance the meeting will fall through as models are pretty similar to poker players with trying to get things going, but it seems I will be meeting up with her at Commerce. Good thing Im meeting another one on Thursday as a back-up .

The one tomorrow has ****ing dyed pink hair too, but its not Charyn. This one is like 22 and looking mighty fine for a white girl.

Five have gotten back to me and the three top flight ones cant meet till I get back from NOLA, but it seems the higher up you go the harder it is to land, but the up and coming and girls who are like 8 and 9s are more eager to connect...

Trip photos soon, but model tending takes time..

Our trip starts in lovely Lake Elsinore, California. The city that I first started to teach middle school history and English. I also was a tennis coach at a local HS starting as the J.V. coach and then a year as the head varsity coach. I cold called the school and left a message on the answering machine in the summer and they got back to me a month later. This coaching job starting my career as a coach which spanned many different sports in several countries. It led me to being an athletic director, a job that I came to both love and loathe due to the intensity and work load, but the skills I learned were critical for my growth.



The casino has evolved since my last visit in 2005, its not a total ****box anymore.



I saw this guy waving this sign and thought, I'm so ****ed in Vegas, Im going to degen and ruin all of my progress, but I didn't .



I had a bunch of great meetings at Excaliber and also walked away with some new friends that have massive integrity and can't wait to hook back up and talk poker, travel and life.



They have a nice little room with donkaments and some low-limit games that appear soft.



Think this is their sportsbook, but maybe another casino in the area as I was just wandering around for hours.



Ill do part two in a few hours, this is tiring and need to look at some model pics, eat and take a nap...

Does your company have a proof of concept? Hitting a 5 mill valuation on the initial funding of a startup seems pretty optimistic.

You seem to have a lot going on at one time so not always easy to follow which companies you are talking about. Either way, really enjoying the thread. Keep the posts coming and good luck with all your goals.

Wow there's really a ****load of americans playing poker at any time. Small poker room full. Is that mid day?
