So I'm finally going to play LATB tomorrow 7/3/2014. My work / vacation schedule giving me Friday off plus me finally getting my 8.7k from Full Tilt has finally lead me to play at LATB. I hope to represent 2+2 LLSNL forum well.

About myself, for those who don't know me. I live in Orange County, CA and I've been playing online poker off and on since 2008. I'm an accountant by trade and have an active CPA license that allows me to sign off on audits. In 2008, I deposited 600 dollars on Full Tilt and lost a little over half of it in cash, thinking it was rigged. I then found pocket 5s and really started to study, used the points I had left over and won 250 bucks off those token sngs. I tried cash again, but then found those juicy 90 man KO sngs on tilt and studied ICM a bit and push/folding ranges and started building up my roll playing mostly sngs but a little cash. Cash out a couple times for about 2k each time and I didn't play too much volume until late 2010 early 2011. I discovered single table sngs and was crushing them and just before I was gonna quit my temp job to go pro, Black Friday happened.

Luckily, I kept my job and didn't play as much on the US facing sites that were left over. I tried doing an early hyper sng pg&c back about 2 years ago on Merge, but the variance sucked and I got a new job. Well I got fired from that job in November 2012 (long story, but mistakes were made), and I didn't work for about 9 months until I got my present job in August that pays pretty decently but is so boring and I hate it and spend a lot of my time reading 2+2.

So here we are now today, I don't play live very often. Was playing on Bovada a lot until last month, as I got super busy with real life stuff. Looking forward to be playing live in LA for the first time in almost a year. I will be playing as "CAL" Follow along and wish me luck!

In. GL

GLGL crush it. What steaks?

According to the calendar it will be a 3/5 game with 300-500 buy in I believe. I was hoping it'd be the 300-1000 game but whatever.

Glglgl will check in

Thanks, hopefully I won't do anything terribly strat wise.

Just play ur game bruh

Yaay good to see that you got on. gl!

All I do is click buttons.

Yes, you all get to finally see how I look like. Hint: I'm Asian with the non-asian name.

Judging by the previous episodes you won't be alone.

Hint: we all click buttons, some just do it better than others

Sometimes when I've been drinking I hit more than one button at once.

GL man, I'll definitely tune in if I can.

But seriously... who is this Greg Dinkin guy that they've got casting? He doesn't seem to be very knowledgable/seems to get the action wrong frequently. I honestly feel that I (or a number of others who frequent this forum) could do a better job than him just based on poker knowledge alone. I hope the book he's been promoting isn't about poker...

I think he was advocating completing from the SB with like 84o and 72s because "It's only $2"... Suggested that a player with A7o "was checking to go for a c/r" on a board of Ad4s5s... amongst other plays that I personally thought were pretty questionable.

Yup, I used to be a very good button clicker, but the government told me to stop .

Sicko.

Ty, I have no idea in regards to Greg Dinkin but his advice sounds awful.

Does anyone know the delay between the stream and hands being played?

from what i remember, i think it was either 5 or 10 minutes

Got my alarm set. 8 and a half hours out!

Good luck.

Thanks everyone. I'm not sure why they start the table that early, they told me to show up at 6:45.

Delay is 15 mins they start 1 hour before so e1 is nice and tilted. Gl gl

They sent me an email explaining why they need the extra time. Basically it's for setup and explanation of how the game works.

Playing out of the rack? BOOOOOOO!

PS : We are live everyone. CAL is in the 9 seat.

Not a bad start.

Been on a cold streak since the set all in. Heater pl0x

Video wont load for me. I logged in pokernetcast and it says the video is private
