Alright - question for people here. i've recently started playing underground card games here in NYC because the trip to and from Foxwoods or AC is too long (4-6hrs round trip), but the rake in the 1/3 (plays like 2/5) is 10% cap 15 and at 5/5 is 10% cap at 25 (plays like 5/10, and missisipi to 25, so sometimes bigger).

What is the breakeven point/what clip do i need to be winning at to make this game profitable?

Who else wants to play?

I don't have definitive answer, but it would help to know what the average BI is.

bout tree fiddy ... and yes I did just troll... thats how we roll in the chat thread playboy.


mods please dont ban me.

BigSkip is well on the way to being NotAsBigSkip.
For a variety of reasons, my weight had ballooned over the past few years. After a couple of false starts on getting serious about losing weight, I have recently peeled a startling 22 lbs off of my peak (much better than I expected). I have done nothing fancy - exercised regularly, and cut back the calories and fat.
Brag: Lost 22 lbs
Beat: Had recently purchased some new suits that were a bit pricey.
Variance: I don't mind (as much) buying more new suits due to weighing less.

There's no chance I fold there. I would have made it clear to them that I would continue to play normally and if they wanted to put $200 blind in they would be risking me coming along. Although I would be watching pretty closely to confirm they were indeed doing in blind. You have just as much of a right to play each hand as you want as they do.

But I probably would have been doing the flip with them so it doesn't matter

Going to need a new user name soon! Good job bro. I got back on my program yesterday. Felt good. Hopefully the pain I was experiencing in my knee and ankle stays away this time. I'm playing softball 2 nights a week (2 games per mostly) and the insanity. Diet isn't 100% clean, but I am fine with that. I'm not looking to get ripped. I want to be healthier, get my speed back, and have more stamina. Still gon' eat burritos and bbq (just not as often)!

I would ask the table if everyone is on board with it. If they were I would fold blind and let them do their thang real quick.

Well played. This is a LC thread then?

Also - wish I lived closer to a casino. Le sigh at high rake.

Between the aborted attempt last hand and the action in this hand, you had plenty of opportunity to object, so I think it's pretty clear you've given tacit approval. Fold. Sounds like they're the type you want at the table, so keep them happy.

The guys wanting to do this are stupid for not getting a verbal OK from every person at the table before putting their money in.

Yeah, pretty much the BS thread that we all BS in.

There is a Bankroll/winrates/etc etc thread. Pretty sure this has been covered, only problem is you'd have to search through it and it's long. Just wait it out though. We do talk serious bidness in here sometimes. Someone might come along and say something useful.

I'll lay down 10:1 that it ain't gonna happen in the next 100 posts.

What's your max $ and what do you consider useful? Totally going to angle you here.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

3.999999-1 FD got there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry for all that.... Really happy right now. Still have a process and things to do but each step is a small victory!!!!

^ with that said... I may not be around as much for a few weeks. I need to do some major studying and some speech work. I say ummm and uhhh too much when being interviewed. Gotta prepare.

Dear APD,

We would like the pleasure of your company in a formal interview to see if you are in fact ninja enough for our organization. Specifically we'd like to find out about the various objects, animals, and people you've ninja'd during your time as a ninja. We also have some questions about your ex gang banger past.

Love,
the FBI

Not that high bruh bruh... but on the right track.

BBQ no problem (minus the crappy sauce w/ 100 ingredients).
just lose the grains (tortillas, bread, pasta, junkfood).
remember, veggies are carbs.
paleo diet is used by navy seals, NFL trainers, cross fit competetors...

oh, i forgot, you don't want to get ripped...

never mind.






congrats. Job pretty much goes without saying; there are no jobs in the public sector any more.

Ive seen the plaeo diet before. I prefer the old standard 40/40/20 with whole wheats/grains, greens, fruits and lean meats. Throw in the occasional burrito de pollo con lechuga y queso and life is good. Have a hole in the wall place where I live. I walk in and the lady starts cooking my food. Definitely a creature of habit.

Not mine yet. Still have work to do, but I won the first pot.

Paleo diet is bro science to the max

I'm still obsessing over my 5/10 session

fat is good, and it's a myth that it makes you fat.
it's fuel, and not only that, your brain is 80%+ fat.
what causes weight gain is the metabolic havoc caused by grains, which our bodies are not designed to eat. Places like Borneo, where ppl still eat the same aboriginal diet that they have forever have none of the chronic diseases that we have here; cancer, diabetes, autism, heart disaese, mental illness like depression, arthritis, ect...
before the advent of agriculture, and the hybridization of grains from grass seed,
people ate the same way for tens of thousands of years. you hunted for meat, and gathered tubers and greens, fruits, and seeds.
You could'nt be fat back then, because you would never be able to catch your dinner being that slow and obvious to your prey, or you would get thin in the process of trying.

Of course people got those diseases, but the fact is most people died around 30 from teeth infections

The big problem in the developed world is a lack of exercise and too high of a caloric intake.

Dude or chick at 1:40?
