You should at least get an office chair for like $100

45 days you'll be sitting on it 500+ hours, that's less than 20 cents an hour.

10-29-2013 , 03:17 PM

10-29-2013 , 03:24 PM

When you put it like this is seems ridiculous you dont have at least a cheap one.

I guess it could be argued you could also be costing yourself money if the way you "feel" has much of an effect on your play. You would definitely feel better sitting in some aeron chair or something, and could probably play even longer more comfortably.

wtf so great. I have the same laptop and am truly impressed. glued to this thread more updates plz!
10-29-2013 , 04:18 PM
no idea how you stack 20 tables and play in that wicker chair mate
10-29-2013 , 04:36 PM
at uni i have a seat from argos that cost £35 and would be a massively improvement on the one you've got lol. my main one back home only cost me £150 from staples and it's ridiculously comfy imo (although not how good it is for posture)

can easily get a chair that'll be ten fold better than the one you've got now for >£200

Maybe you should also invest like one day's rakeback and buy a 30" monitor lol

If you can't get MCT oil, you could substitute it with coconut oil. Should be much easier to find and it's rich in MCT. Been using it myself lately, good stuff and tastes great in coffee too.

well, i personally wouldn't consider buying a herman miller unless i am somewhere for at least 6 months. that being said you play teh volume and hours in 45 days which i play in 6 months which is a bit different story then.

when i moved to bali with a couple of other players first thing we did after we signed our villa was a department store and buying decent chairs and desk. i'm only here for 6months most likely and spend around 400$ on chair + desk. it's not like you get some really decent chairs in teh 200$ ballpark

Should post in BBV's Baller Set-up thread. Seriously no idea how you play those hours in this situation but keep it up. A good chair is a massively worthwhile investment though. I just ordered a Herman Miller Embody chair last night, and I play like 20% of the hours you do. Shame you're moving so soon so it wouldn't be as good of a buy.
10-29-2013 , 08:44 PM
LoL extremely sexy setup you got there. Lovin the mouse mat ^^


btw may I ask what is your hourly including rakeback etc last 3 months?

The UK sucks to live in but I imagine that for a tourist it's fun for the first few weeks like anywhere apart from maybe Afghanistan or Russia.

LDN is a great city. If you were depressed, you weren't doing it right.

Wow, I've had this for the past month or so. Did you do anything besides change move your elbow? Comes and goes.

THIS! I have it right now, went to the doctor and they didnt really know whats happening yet or what caused it. I have my pinky and hallf my ring finger numbed for about three months now and I also get cramps in my left palm every now and then. Is there anything you did to make it all right or do I just have to sit and wait? Also is there anything I can do to prevent it from happening in the future? Again, good luck sir.

Tuesday is always the worst day of the week for me.. Game quality is always terrible, and i always end up going on spiraling tilt. Just happy to end up i guess. And these sausage mcmuffins from mcdonalds are helping a bit.

    Awesome performance mate, the volume truly is amazing. You are one sick puppy!!

    Did you start at the micro's on the cash tables and build up to this level or play mtt's and sng's and switch to cash?
