Not really down to me being lazy, but having the flu since Dec 25 to Jan 10.

Then I was getting everything ready for Vegas in the last week, and only just come back really.

However, I've just done a bet with a friend (and also a poker player).

- Have to run 250 miles (recording it all on an iPhone app) from Feb 1st to May 31st.
- At no point during Feb 1 - May 31 are we required to say how far we've run to each other
- If one of us gets to 250 miles and the other is below 125 miles, they win the bet regardless (to get us motivated from the start)
- If we both get to 250 miles then the bet is a push
- If one of us gets to 250 miles and the other doesn't, they win the bet.


Winner gets to choose 3 of the following 5:

1) Fall backwards into TAO bath.
2) Take half a lemon to the eye, slice by slice
3) Attend a pool party in speedos, goggles and swimming cap, and complete an individual medley
4) shop at WSOP store in Rio for the most budget collection of WSOP clothes ever, and wear them for three events
5) Pay $10k to the other



Won't be saying how far I've ran in here though as he may read this. Just thought I'd let you all know that when you see some hunk by the Vegas pool in June it may be me !

Sick bet - make sure you set a password on your iPhone, will be too easy for him to have a quick peek at when you're not looking! Get yourself regged for a marathon, that will stimulate you even more.

Tao - A nightclub in the Venetian, has bathtubs as you walk into the club with water & petals in them. Be pushed backwards into that!

Yeah good idea re the password! F**K marathons, that's too long! I'll just do casual 3-5 milers every few days

Haha yeah pictures will be posted. And of course we'll be allowed to take photos by the pool in Vegas! It's only by the tables area in the casinos where phone's aren't allowed.

On the subject of photo's... I'll post some from my Vegas trip last week whenever I re-add my gf on facebook (could be a long time!)

hey coopah , i wanted to ask you why you just play on pokerstars when on every other network out there is way softer than stars ?
is it just bc of customer support, safety, rb?

Customer support - no. Although it is the best, I don't really care about it!

Safety - yes.

RB - although RB has never really been a big concern for me, I am kinda in love with this supernova elite thing now! So I guess when I reach that the 72% RB or whatever it is would be nice!

I just like the software of stars tbh. Player pool is a lot bigger (although harder), and it's easy to just 18 table it instead of having like 6 from stars, 6 from ongame (although that's now dead) and 6 from party/888/ipoker or something.

Oh and I really like the cashouts there. Take under 5 seconds to cash back out to Skrill.

so you sacrifice your winrate for software and comfort ,
you played on every other skin?
if so do you feel a big difference between average skill?

Haha, in a way yes. I was hoping that the ability to put in more hands easily would compensate for that - we will see.

It was a tester month for me really as I've never put in much hands at Stars in a short space of time. I learned a lot from it though so it's all good.

Most skins/sites I've played on yeah. And yeah there's a definite skill increase at stars.

Just a shame there are so many scumbags on Stars using this seating script.

Actually don't know how I'm alive

Didn't play any poker.

Roulette and blackjack ftw! (It was my 25th Birthday ) I came out even/little up so all good!
