If I ever win a tourney for over 500k I'd probably invest in a pizza joint.

If I ever win a tourney for multiple millions, I'd buy the Tucson Hooters and build myself a room out back.

If I ever win 500k-1M I'll invest it to secure my financial future and change nothing about my lifestyle. 1M really isn't that much money.

General Manager, not Assistant.

I worked 27 hours and 59 minutes this week. You get in big trouble if you go over 28. My co-worker explained that this is all because of Obama. I did a lot of head-nodding and mimicking expressions of sympathy I've seen on TV.

Anyway, UG, your post cheered me up considerably. I no longer think I'm going to get fired!

If I were to win 500k+ at an MTT, I'd take it to kagomekagome at 500/1k or battle dudes at 100/200+ PLO.

I guess this is why I work at Jimmy Johns.

Pretty much flip out on him on the flop peel. Which he claim I am doing something wrong if this is not a easy call. So I play with equailab and amazing the extra backdoor gave him 1-2% more equity. This is how I run all year at 30/60+.

It so frustrating to watch guys that can't beat 5/10-15/30 crush highstake. Maybe I really do need to peel every backdoor.

actually I forgot to add that this might not look as bad huhu but the fish just sat out his bb and not sure if he adjust his opening range but I am sure my calling range is tighter anyway since the game will break after this hand and just wanted to get over with. I mean if he think the flop is an easy call then it would better to donk check back the flop. Also I don't think he is capable of a river bluff raise when he miss so it not he able to realize his hidden equity.

lol at Vicky Coren quitting pokerstars because they introduced casino games.

Newsflash: if you're a poker pro then your job is to take money of people just the same as the casinos. Cognitive dissonance much?

I think I'm going to have to play a fair amount of NL to make elite this year. Anyone know which site has the best NL vids? My first guess would be RunitOnce since it's Galfonds but I haven't watched a vid for years so I really don't know.

Should I stop making an extra 400k/yr at 2 7 and non-stars sites and getting elite in half the hours it takes you? Maybe I'll join ya at 5 10 and 3 6...haven't played those for 3 years. Last response from me on this. Tata

Yes, you should. If you're playing too many tables to not act in a halfway timely manner you are being a ***. Please have some respect for the game that made you your money.

I just had JJ delivered. It's a half mile down the street. Easy delivery. The total was $6.95. Elo, is $9.00 acceptable in this spot or are you pooping in my shrubs?

For the most part, as long as I don't get stiffed, I don't get mad.

Got into an accident Tuesday night, while on the clock. It was 100% the other party's fault, but that might not matter to a company worried about liability, and so there's some chance I still get fired.

Cable/Internet have been cut off for a month now. Can't fully pay the rent. Being ultrabusto sucks. I want to return to poker so badly, even though I know it might kill me.

Some of these delivery drivers are real angleshooters, too. There's no chatbox, so I just mumble about it incoherently while making less money.

Elo, don't worry.

My brother burned somewhere between 30-50k by being lazy. He hadn't made payments on his house, and it was going into forclosure auction. All he had to do was tell the bank he would sell, and he had that much equity based on what he bought it at two years ago and what it would sell at. But he was too lazy to do so, so bam, he lost that money and now I am going over there today to pick up some items to store at my house and hopefully he moves out before they take the rest of his ****.
