Not even sure why I'm bothering, but acknowledge see a pretty shaky argument that it's +EV in the short short term. Can't see a logical argument that it's +EV long term. Much like playing on apps I guess
Hahah, yeah seems about right :')

Racism extends way back into a person's history, and they would have dealt with it a lot growing up. So it's a little bit more than just an "insecurity" implying it's something wrong with themselves. Obviously some people can't see past that because they were born white in Australia.
I'm sure karma is a real thing and somebody's gonna get aids banging all these hookers someday.
Fwiw, I wasn't reacting to racism, I was reacting to your reaction. Didn't you leave this thread already?

For people of Pattaya? It probably is, a lot of business opportunities, work possibilities etc. Just like slavery was very +EV for one side. But I'm pretty sure that those girls who were lured to Pattaya with promises for better life and then being forced to work as prostitutes, with their passport taken away and their children being in danger if they don't comply, they don't brush their teeth in the morning full of joy with and urge to high5 all those sex tourists for the wonderful opportunities created because of them. Human trafficking and modern day slavery is real, and it's simply amazing how you can even ask if sex tourism in unregulated market is +EV for people.
I guess this is not the right place to talk about it as I'll be called "idiot" right away and you'll find reasons to justify hooker grind anyway.
I'm out, no hard feelings. Good luck with poker journey! My advice - think twice before stating something, and don't be afraid to admit when you're wrong.
Yeah, I wonder how many are doing it of their own accord and how prolific the human trafficking stuff is.

Wishing someone to get aids is probably not the best way to earn karma points for yourself..
Yeah how come I can't complain about being called whitey, this is bs!

Although I wasn't a fan of him using the term 'abo', he was open to others' thoughts on how a term like that can affect people and growing up in Queensland it would be pretty ingrained in his vernacular. The other posters jumping on the bandwagon and abusing those who are pointing out that some of that stuff is offensive are just showing themselves to be part of the problem, but again, they will just respond to this post with terms like 'idiot', 'soft', 'snowflake' etc. which they don't realise just further proves the point.
Good post!
=========================
Played not long today as I was busy doing a bunch of study stuff after a long coaching session. Won't bother posting graph because it was like 700 hands and I think I lost about a buyin.
Diet Switch Up
So I jumped on the scale today and was 85kg exactly. At the start of this thread, like less than a month ago? I was 95kg. So 10kg down in a month is... actually kind of concerning. I feel like I maaay be losing some muscle given I'm in such a massive caloric deficit with the OMAD.
So what I'm going to do is the following schedule,
Day 1: Carb load before bed
Day 2: Leg day, massive amounts of protein post workout (caloric surplus day)
Day 3: fast
Day 4: train chest/shoulds, keto refeed (refeed should be 48 hours after last meal on leg day)
Day 5: train back/arms, keto refeed, then before bed carb load again and resume at day 2.
So it's basically bulking, fasting, and keto OMAD at different times throughout the week. Hopefully I get some more protein into my diet by doing this and some more calories.
I've just bought 4 dori fillets, 800grams of chicken breast, and 2 salads which I'm planning on eating after legs tomorrow.
