My god finally. I started the year off with a 150BB downswing, which I understand isn't a ton but when you only play live and infrequently it feels like a lot. I finally made it into the black today for the year, which is nice. This was fueled by a crazy 20 minutes where I sat in a 20 game, played 2 orbits 6 handed and won 4 racks. I admit it felt great after the kind of year that I was having.

To Phoenix next week!

the only thing bad about rocky IV is knowing you will never see a movie as good for the rest of your life

I don't know if it was my first set of the night, but I did donk TT on a JT7 flop after preflop I raised UTG+1, UTG+2 who is pretty tight 3 bets, button, SB, BB and I call.

I hope you got max action because you never have a set when you donk.

Maybe for normal people, my viewing experience has been forever ruined.

Spoiler:
during filming of the final fight, Stallone told Lundgren to give him everything he had for the 45 seconds to make the fight look more real. Lundgren hit him in the chest so hard his heart pinballed off his ribs, his blood pressure went over 260, he spent a week in intensive care, and almost died.

If tough to suspend belief when you know Drogo would have killed Rocky in about 15 seconds

You believed a 5'8" guy that wasn't Bruce Lee beat up a 6'5" guy?

Too bad I don't play yer steaks, I'd be telling you I got the nuts every other hand.

I also enjoy watching movies with theme parks full of dinosaurs even though I'm skeptical about the science behind it.

50% of his fights ended in the other fighting dying, seems believable

Which causes more long term brain damage? A career in boxing or a career in limit holdem?

You have to control for the amount of brain damage that's required to get into that career in the first place.

I play against a huge number of ppl who seem to have brain damage. Maybe they are all former boxers.
