Thanks guys, I appreciate the support. In the time between now and when I actually get up and running on TPE, it would be cool if you guys could let me know what you'd like to see in my videos (suggestions for topics, themes, things to cover, etc), as that would give me a good starting point when I come to make my first series.

I would recommend focussing on one or two specific topics a video, and not like many others do just review your mtt and actually tell what you are doing without giving much insight into your tought process. just my two cents, because those vids are quite worthless for 95% of the time.

Thanks for the input. It looks like things are going to be a bit more structured early on though, and I won't have complete free reign on what I cover in videos. TPE have suggested a 5-part live sweat for my first series, so it looks like that's what I'll be doing.

Thanks!

Feel pretty crappy today, played probably my worst session for a while. Made a few pretty big mistakes including a really terrible 4bet/call in a big pot in the Big 162, and a pretty unnecessary shove to bust the FTOPS $1k 6max. Really tired right now so that might have been a part of it - need to get a good night's sleep, my whole sleep pattern has been ****ed up lately as usual. Gonna try to get back to abstaining from caffeine as much as possible, or at least just getting it from tea rather than coffee or Diet Coke, which both make me really jittery.

Looking forward to the end of FTOPS, when I can take a few days' break and hopefully get some writing done. I'm also thinking of starting a YouTube vlog on the subject of television, after a couple of friends thought it would be a cool idea.

Definitely not a must play, would never have been playing it if I hadn't won the FTOPS package. It was the 3rd online $1k I've ever played and the field was very tough.

A lot of even the lower FTOPs aren't must plays imo. My 215 turbo table yesterday had Moorman, ImDaNuts, Aggro Santos and rh30048. Might skip the 109c turbo tonight and will almost definitely skip the 215 6-max in Friday. It ain't no WCOOP.

How's the series been going generally for you? Must feel gooooooood freerolling the whole thing. Did you get some kinda custom avatar aside from the miniftops one? Anything else for shipping leaderboard?

My actual custom avatar is on the way, they're still producing it. It's gonna be pretty awesome though.

Series is going okay I guess, no real deep runs but it's been tough playing games I don't know very well against guys who actually know how to play them. I cashed the $530 HU which was nice, and I have a few other cashes, but no top 50 finishes yet. Definitely good to be freerolling it, I probably wouldn't be playing more than a handful of events otherwise. Oh, and no, that was it for the leaderboard, a bunch of FTOPS tickets and a custom avatar.

It's me, but it's a variation on me. I think it's pretty fun.

Read this thread all at once. Can't hide that I feel envious about your rungood, but then again I haven't worked as hard as you to deserve any rungood in poker.

Still waiting for the pics from your apt/setup :P. Gratz for the TPE hiring

Haha, thanks. Pics are coming, I promise. I'll tweet some once my other two 30in monitors arrive - they're the last piece of the jigsaw.

On another note, I chopped the Hot 75 today for $10.4k. Weeeee
