well glad that month is over. most volume i've put in, most disappointing outcome. i feel good about my play, especially after receiving some coaching from ricky1231 just before that mini uptick at the end. hopefully this can start to turn around tho - getting a bit annoying to say the least.



savers below -

honestly i only read your thread for the threadsavers but...... i will say you have the best threadsavers of any thread i have followed. gl

well it's good to know someone is reading my trash, regardless of the reason.

and glad to help out with the savers - i'll try to keep up the good work haha

man ur running really bad..keep trying man,dont give up gl!!

started this month running somewhere a bit closer to decent.

not sure if this is a fold, but it's probably close considering they were both pretty bad droolers. river certainly helps tho

Interesting year so far mate.
I am in a semi-similar position to you so definitely helpful to read your thread.
My thoughts:
- props on what you are putting in while studying med (i'm at uni doing a law double, sucks when you just want to grind. also difficult to have to refocus- I find if things are stressful/ there are problems outside poker it will probably affect my poker)
- you seem to be pretty disciplined and have been making good decisions eg continuing to work on your game etc; these are the elements for success

Obv
- sick variance
- working on game is key

Head up man, if you are trying to work on your game then you will succeed as the variance balances.

Gl and keep posting

haha, just reread post, did i mention work on your game :P At home sick is my excuse

june was going well, until today. had a pretty sick run of getting unlucky and what not. oh well; month is still pretty decent so can't complain too much.

Is this really a challenge to "earning cash for college" or is it "earning/saving for hookers in the future?" I mean do we really need to post so many pics of naked women? I can understand 1 or 2 every once and and a while but to have so many posted is just unreal. I think we all here are computer savy enough to find hundreds of porn sites or countless numbers of women in bikini in the net if thats what we rather do.

Hey, new player here witnessing your fight..Um, if you quit putting the ho pics in here, us guys at work/and in cubicles can keep following..It looks good when the boss see's me looking at charts!!! Its bad when boss, and any of the 35 females that work here see me lookin at the ho's...sup to yu tho obviously..If the medical field doesnt do it for ya, go be a television producer, Im sure all your commercialls would be hits!!!

"they walked in, so I speed scroll, but its not one ho, he f-in linked 5 ho's in a row this time!!, oh sha-hee-it im busted..." scrolling feverishly to next chart...

shiiieeeettt you got me there - found out my secret.

didn't think i'd ever hear ppl complain about *too* many threadsavers, only not enough. i was just posting them for the rungood, nothing else. if they deeply offend you then don't read my thread i guess.

sorry bout that mate - only trying to help me rungood. in the future i'll put them in spoilers. and maybe i'll cut down on the number as well

I'm not against having pics here but I think there should be a limit. And to be honest I myself probably have as much of the samepics in my computer. I think that most of us here would agree that posting 5 or more pics everytime you post is just over doing it, one pic would be more acceptable. As I mentioned this is a poker forum so would rather see more of poker related post. (This offcourse is just my opinion). Well, goodluck at the table and med school. I've given up on that dream a few years ago although now wish I completed just to complete another milestone in my life even if i was going to practice. A question if you dont mind aswering are you for or against Obama Care, why? Again, Goodluck.

Yep yep I get your point. I'll tone it down.

At home atm recovering from surgery, so probably won't play that much in the next few days. For the best really; I needed a break after dropping -700 in 24hrs with rediculous runbad and essentially ruining my month .

Thanks for the wishes. As to your q regarding obama's medical thingo, I can't really comment as I'm Australian and don't know a huge deal about his policies. What I can say without a doubt is there needs to be some sort of public health system in the USA based on tax payer dollars. Having a medical system based entirely around ability to afford care is ludicrous and goes against the grain of any civilized modern community. So while I can't comment on the finer details of his policy, I think I can say that any public system>no public system
