I dont care about hookers. I care about people with potential squandering it through drug use. Thats why im vocal, ive seen alot of people (family, friends, aswell as people i dont know) lose it all or limit their potential because of drug use. So until you are clean, im going to troll you, in an effort to deter you from it obviously.

People squander their life away when they abuse drugs. Not when they use drugs. You are just a straight arrow kind of guy that doesn't understand. I have read your posting history extensively and am certain you have never been in a position in life where you should be giving me advice.

You have some deep seeded issues, maybe it's a lack of self worth. Maybe you just get off on talking **** to people over the internet. But there is something deeply wrong with your mindset. Until you fix that desire, you will always remain the forum troll you are right now. Don't assign some higher purpose to your trolling, I don't need your help. You need to help yourself first, before you can be of help to anyone else

gl with that!

Ugh had the most brutal day of poker in a long time! was breaking even over about 1k hands while running at about 11evbb/100. Then the following hand came by.

5/10NL
SB 1k
BB 1k
UTG 2360
MP 1k
HERO 2400
BTN 1k

UTG opens 22.5, MP flats, HERO (KK) 82$ UTG calls, MP calls

Flop: KT8r

UTG 200$, MP call, HERO call

Turn 5x

UTG All in, MP call, HERO call. (UTG AA, MP JJ, HERO KK)

River Ax

Another hand on 3/6 where I 5b misclick 590 of my 600 stack with KK. Dude decides to see if he gets lucky with Ad5x. Flop all diamonds, we get it in and he binks the diamond. Taking the day off tomorrow to cool down. Got super tilted towards the end of my session.

Sorry I can't post HHs but first one is on a "secret" network and the second one is on a site that doesn't support HEM. Might post something like a manually made graph at some point.

Since I've now pretty much quit the micro grind and can't really post all that much about my midstakes grind. What should I do to this topic? Should I put in the occasional session to have it like a Doug Polk BR challenge? Should I just quit? I am not sure?

My mindset has led me to being financially stable and almost free before 30 while your mindset has led u to being broke at 30 depending on women you barely know to feed you as a grown man lol. But yea u dont need my advice because youve mastered life lol. Only a matter of time before you are broke again snorting lines off hookers asses. What a hero. Not to mention your losing session immediately after your week of drug use lol. If u think i need help then its safe to say you need rehab and a therapist.

Ok this is the last time I am responding to you, just because I laughed really hard at pretty much everything you said.

My mindset has led me to being a multi millionaire before 25. **** being financially stable, that is not impressive at all! I was never dead broke, I was cash broke. That is something entirely different. I own my parent's house which is worth more 8 balls of the finest coke that I can ever snort off of a hooker's ass with a team of Diego Maradonna's. Excuse me for trying to create some buzz with my title to get hits, it's not easy to get an audience when you're grinding micros. I was cash broke, that much was true. I never said I had no earthly possessions. Lol, if I account for all the money I have outstanding in loans to friends that has been written off because **** it, I would be able to hire your sorry ass for at least a year and make you do my laundry and call me Senor Jeffe.

You are almost free? What is almost free? Nobody is free, I have never held a regular job in my life. Never had a loan or a mortage and I have never been married. Yet I am anything but free. I have taxes to pay, health care to pay. Responsibilities to to stand up to. This whole notion of a human being free in modern day society is beyond ridiculous.

I never depended on that girl to feed me, I had a fridge and a pantry stuffed with food that would last me at least two more weeks. And I had additional sources of income through coaching well before that would have ran out. Just because I got help from someone, doesn't mean I was depending on them or that I wasn't self reliant.

I had a losing session right after a week of drug use, it must be the drugs. I mean there is no variance in poker at all right? From all your posts you never seemed super intelligent. But let me lay some math on you. If you assume a winrate of 10evbb/100 (which is monstrous for 6 max NLHE) with a std dev of 90 the probability that you have a losing session when playing 1k hands (the amount of hands i played that session) is 36.2658%. So more than 1 in 3 times you play a 1k hand session you will end the session a loser you dimwit lover of cocknuggets

I dont blame you that you don't understand basic variance, as it has become obvious you don't understand various far simpler things. But you could have just looked at the graph of the session to know that I was just running like ****. Look at the ****ing graphs you complete and utter buffoon!

Lose 4bi at 2nl while my ev was -1 buyin.



As for my "disaster session" on 5nl:

Sadly the session stats don't go back that far and I didn't post a session graph of that session that day, but you can clearly see in the graph that I posted back then that my green line drops significantly harder than my orange line. I am never one to complain as I know variance always evens out and this wasn't even close to a real sick run of bad luck. But to say I lost at poker because I had used drugs is nothing short of completely idiotic!



Listen, it's all good with your need to hate. I get it, many people are like you and I have no ambition to change you. You need to do that yourself. I am normally not one to go down this road, but you're an ******* and I hope that somewhere in this mountain of text reality will set in with you. You are not very intelligent, you are most likely not even above average intelligence. You understand very little about poker. You understand literally nothing about drugs and addiction. You are not in the same league as I am as an intellectual being and you are clearly getting off on people failing. Which is why you are constantly trying to preach some self fullfilling prophecy about me going broke and getting addicted to cocaine. It is all laughable! I wouldn't even ask for your advice if I was gonna pursue a career as a miserable pokerforum troll!

I know that whatever I say, you will sit there riding the high horse all over your keyboard feeling fantastic about yourself. But I am here honestly telling you that even at my worst moments, you are not capable of helping me. It's not about me not needing help, I have tons to improve on and need all the help I can get. I'm just saying you are mentally incapable of offering me any help. You just lack the intellectual capacity. Now do us all a favor, and just bugger off. I am not interested in your grand vision on life and how I should live it. I have done more than excellent without you, and if there is one thing in life I am certain of. It is that I will not be able to use any advice you have to offer me to do better than I would do on my own. Goodbye, and good day!

..."Worth more 8 balls of the finest coke that I can ever snort off of a hooker's ass with a team of Diego Maradonna's" is one of the sickest brags I've ever seen no joke

I wouldn't waste the effort trying to educate H0RUS OP. Judging by his posting history in this thread, he is at the level of unconscious incompetence when it comes to many aspects of the real world, outside of what he was taught at school. All drugs are bad. Life is about gaining financial independence as early as possible, real life experiences don't matter, only the pursuit of currency and conforming to society's view of being an acceptable human being.

You seem to have life figured out to some extent OP, balance seems to be the issue with you atm, but balance is one of the hardest things to obtain, and it isn't constant, so staying balanced is nigh on impossible, we just have to continue to do the best we can.

GLGL and ignore H0RUS posts, the 20 minutes or so you likely spent replying to his last post can be better spent elsewhere, improving some other aspect of your life, rather than trying to please the un-pleasable.

Horus' comments are very logical. So much hate for them but at least it's funny hate.

They're logical to someone that has no understanding of the topic he is preaching about.

'You had a prescription drug addiction. LOL you did LSD you relapsing POS.' is a very illogical and incorrect viewpoint to anyone who understands anything about drugs, addiction and the way they work. His heart is in the right place, and you can tell he has a genuine concern about OP's well being as he is so insistent, however, he doesn't understand enough about the scenario to warrant having such a strong opinion about it.

The thing about addicts or people with addictive personalitys are they dont believe they have a problem and immediately become defensive when approached. They lash out at anyone trying to help them, which is why families suffer alot.

Ive done extensive studies on psychology and also drug psychology. Most addicts convince themselves they "need" the drug or somehow they function better with the use of drugs. Its nothing more than a crutch to walk you through life, a false sense of reality. Who you are sober is not who you are under the influence, thats not me being a dick, thats science. The same traits ive studied are the same traits i see in OP. Delusions of grandeur, psychosis are common. OP initially says he has $11 to his name and will have to beg for food and now he says has all of these "assets" to get him out of the hole if he busts his roll. Its this way of thinking that is flawed. Rather than accepting that drugs and hookers put him in this exact position (by his own admittance in his OP) he rather make excuses for everything. Its not always about having "outs" to bail you out, its about avoiding those spots period. OP titled the thread "50 day drug detox", mentions being knocked down to a $10 networth from drugs and hookers, then immediately does drugs and hookers after an mtt score but somehow im the bad guy for shining a light on that? Whats the purpose of 50 day drug detoxing if you are going right back to the issues that put you in your position the moment you come up on some money? You cant call yourself an ex drug addict, detox and then go back to drugs and say you are doing it in moderation now. Thats lying to yourself and enabling yourself to continue the same self destructive habits.


OP its easy to say i "dont have the intellectual capacity to help you" because im saying what you don't want to hear but im just speaking on the details you provide from a neutral standpoint

1. You are an ex drug addict who went broke from drugs
2. You made money from an mtt
3. You celebrate by doing drugs.

I think anybody who isnt emotionally invested would agree with me. I may not have made millions from poker but ive made enough to set myself up for millions in the future. Ive also kept my head strong instead of being inhibited by drugs. Ive also never put myself in the position of going broke or having to rely on others to feed me if things went bad. So from that alone i think im well positioned to give you advice. My advice would be continue your drug detox, stay off the drugs for good and get in the best shape of your life. If drugs were never a problem for you then the OP of this thread would have been entirely different.

Well this thread has gone downhill

I'm not 100% sure what a dimwit lover of cocknuggets is... but I am definitely going to be calling people that from now on.

Subbed. GL man.

I like to get creative sometimes. But don't go all HORUS on me. Cocaine is a horribly boring drug and only acceptable as a way to get some of that sloppy drunk out of your system. Other than that is is overpriced juppy bull****. Don't use it!

Thanks bud! Appreciate your kind words. He will not see another response from me. I just had to let it rip on him one more time. Couldn't help myself. For sure I have tons of stuff to work on in both life and poker. And I am always working on them, with people I respect and I feel can actually show me the way. Luckily there are more than enough of those people on this lovely planet, so I think I should be able to do OK in the future.

Read MinimalFunkd's post. Also read HORUS posting history. He practically does nothing else than talk **** to people. It's a pattern, it's not out of a good heart because he doesn't want me to waste my potential.

I know, I shouldn't have fed the troll. But I promise it's the last time. I have had a super busy day and have some nice poker related update coming later today. After that I will probably dive into another story time because that was very well received.

I don't know either, it just rolled off the top of my tongue when typing the rant. I can get rather explicit from time to time. Thanks for the support, I do it for people like you!

Thanks for basically confirming my stance. You dismiss what i say because you don't "respect" me. If someone like phil galfond repeated my exact words you would have ate it up. To top it off you use my BBV posting history like it actually means something. How about you check my PGC or internet poker forum section posting history? You will see the opposite, me giving people advice, congratulating people and just helping in anyway i can. But you wont do that because it doesnt fit your narrative. I know your type, it takes hitting rock bottom for you to realize where you went wrong. Apparently being left with $10 to your name and relying on strangers to feed you wasnt rock bottom enough, which is a shame.

It's been a crazy ****ing day. I got constant action and was able to put in a sick volume. Played a ton 3 and 4 handed vs other regs. Did that for 2 reasons, first of all it generates a ton of rake so gets me a ton of rakeback. Secondly I wanted to make a name for myself and set a standard where they are going to have to quit me, because they know I will continue to battle them.

I am not crushing them, but I am for sure break even vs them, probably slightly winning. But with the enormous rake and my excellent rakeback deal ... it's pretty much a solid decision to keep playing them.



This was it for today, I am absolutely exhausted right now. I played to the best of my ability and played a ton of tables with a lot of shorthanded action in between. I had a student rail me via teamviewer to also get a little coaching in. Tomorrow I will wake up early, do some recorded HH reviews and then get back on the horse.

Forget the haters, anyone who has had your life experiences is going to be far more knowledgable than a randomer.

Glad the coaching is going well! How much are you charging for that? You just have a lot of people who believe in your abilities man

lol any one who calls out obvious bull**** behavior is a hater these days smh. im not the one who squandered millions and left myself with $10 because of drugs, hits an mtt score then goes and does drugs again. But im the hater lol.


The sad part is im basically the only one who isnt condoning the self destructive behavior but hey he writes good stories right? lol

Did you meet lots of hot foreign girls when you toured the EPT circuit? Any more crazy stories you can share? Even if you think they are not that good I think they would be.

Horus give it a rest man. I basically share your opinion but degens gonna degen and the stories are good.

yeah Im here for the stories. I'm sure OP is capable of getting help if he feels it necessary.

I don't really charge anything. I work in a poker stable that has different tiers of players. I coach guys that play 100nl as their main game. I have 3 horses under my wing that are all in makeup and my deal is to get them out of makeup for x amount. Then after that I will have equity in their monthly profit share. I started with 4 guys, but pretty much snap dropped one because there was just not anything there.

I have never coached at an hourly, because I don't believe that to be fair. If I coach a random player for x amount of hours, each hour of coaching has a different value. In my previous coaching agreements we would determine the current winrate of the student, then start the coaching. He was then committed to playing another 200k hands at that limit and I would get 50% of the increase in evbb/100. So say that player x was winning at 1evbb/100 and after my coaching has a wr of 2evbb/100. I get paid 1bb/100 over that 200k hand sample. Imo that's the only fair way of paying for coaching. It takes out the variance on both sides and has a no cure no pay element to it. I have been scammed once by a guy who manufactered a fake database to pay me less. Luckily I found out thanks to whotf.ru and threatened to out him if he didn't pay me the full increase of his winrate. He ended up paying out of his ass for my coaching, he is still doing well in poker and in hindsight still got more than his money's worth.

Poker trips are horrible for meeting girls, for several reasons. I think about 80% of all the ass I got at tour stops were dealers. The poker parties are giant sausage fests and even the surrounding clubs just seem like suboptimal hunting grounds. I traveled through South America for just over a year, that is the only time in life where I was knee deep in pussy. Other than that I don't think I have an amazing track record with picking up snatch.

Today I am gonna be too busy, but I have a pretty decent story that I don't mind sharing. I'll post it tomorrow or the day after. Today the target is to get in 25k hands. Probably impossible, but I am gonna ****ing try!!!

Since my identity is hidden anyway, I don't mind opening up a bit more. We can easily put the addiction story to rest. It was a case of physical addiction to a prescription drug that I had no choice in taking for a very long time. I had to go through physical withdrawal for that. Never in my life have I been addicted to anything else. I've used a bunch of recreational drugs in my life, but never habitual. The only drugs I have used on a near daily basis for long periods of time are caffeine, nicotine and pot. With pot being a phase thing. I smoked a lot when travelling through South America, and I smoked a lot when I lived in Morocco for 4 months. I have never used heroin, fentanyl, crystal and crack. I have used weed, shrooms, MDMA, ketamine, cocaine, LSD, salvia, 2cb, 2ci, 2ce, DOB, nn, DMT, 5-MEO DMT, methaqualone, GHB, Nitrous Oxide, LSA, mephedrone and Dipropyltryptamine. A large majority of these drugs I have tried once, a few I've done more than once and only a very select few will I ever do again. The problem in today's world is that we have a black and white view of drug users. You have people that are clean and people that are junkies. There is no middle road for most. i know for a fact that I have been way more responsible in my drug consumption than a very large part of the world's population has been with their alcohol consumption. Yet nobody makes an issue out of the dude drinking a sixpack 4 nights a week. In a way I can't blame these people, they have just been misinformed from a young age. I am fairly confident we will go towards a future where humans will understand the value different forms of intoxications can bring to a human being. It all comes down to responsible use and good guidance. I was never the naive kid that just took whatever was in the baggy that some random handed to him. Literally 100% of the substances I have experimented with were lab tested. For all my experiments I did my research before I dove in and I always used in a controlled setting when using the first time.

In my life I need to improve most on a few things. I have been far from good to my family in social terms. I haven't spoken to big parts of my family for years. I haven't spoken to my parents in months and I don't remember when I last contacted my friends in my home town. I don't have an explanation for this, there isn't any bad blood between me and any of them, I just feel akward contacting people I am not within reach of. Like, I don't see the point in asking how you are doing if you are 2000km away. **** that, I'll ask when I'm in the area. Many people find that annoying and think I am rejecting them. So that is something I drastically need to work on.

Other than that I am generally pretty indifferent in conflicts. I'll nearly always choose to shut up over standing up for my side in a conflict. Strange thing is that I never have this problem online. Over a keyboard I will tear you down if you do me wrong, but in person I'd rather be friendly. People that notice that abuse it, plus it makes me miserable because in hindsight I realize what I did and feel like a weak ****. I have commitment issues because I like the chase too much but don't want to cheat on a girl either. (holla at me ladies that will let me dog around a few times a year!) I also need to lose about 10kg in body weight.

I think that's pretty much it on the life front. Ofcourse in poker we have to study everyday, so I am not gonna specifiy that I still need to work on my game.

Funny side note, my only addiction (apart from pain meds) was nicotine. And ever since my first LSD trip I quit smoking. Smoked nearly a pack a day for at least 10 years, quit from one day to the next and now haven't smoked for about 8 years.

Alright, slight setback. It's the end of the month and all my accounts are locked for the day to tally up the rakeback. If I would have known that I would have had a very different schedule, but it basically puts me out of work today. That's good news for you guys though because it means one thing: STORY TIME!

I am almost convinced this was the summer of 2009, I had rented a nice villa in Crete with a buddy to grind and hit the party scene. We were there for about a month when we ran into a group of 4 girls from Belgium. They had the cutest accents and were all solid 7s. Not the hit it and quit it type summer sluts you usually bang at these spots, but girls worth a chase. So we decide to take them out and about on the island so we can spend all day investigating which would be the best pick to make a move on. They are students on a budget, so to impress them we invite them to rent ATVs on our dime and tour the island for the weekend.

Now for the less traveled people in this thread, Greeks are by far the scummiest people I have ever met in my life when it comes to price gauging tourists. Although I fully understand them trying to get max value, I do not appreciate it when people try to rip me off at every single turn, and that was what had been happening since the moment we arrived on the island.

Ok, so we get to the ATV rental place. I tell the girls that I am gonna sell a story to this man, saying that we are students on a budget to keep his price gouging to a minimum. I instruct the girls to object to the first two prices because they feel it's too much out of their budget. I tell them this is all just an act and that whatever the price is, me and my buddy will take care of it. They play their part down to a tee and we get an acceptable price for 6 ATVs all with a full tank of gas. We jump on our rides and head out for a lunch spot we had been quite a few times. There was a hill next to it which was perfect for these vehicles, we could have some fun and skid around there while not being bothered by steep cliffs or busy traffic. We toy around for a bit when one of the girls strikes a puncture. **** happens right? We just drive it to the shop really carefully and ask the guy to plug the puncture. Easy enough, or so it would seem. We wait while the girl heads inside to ask for help and we hear the guy screaming at her. We all get into the shop and he has gone ballistic on this poor girl. Saying that it was absolutely forbidden to drive the ATVs anywhere other than on tarmac. I tell him to show me where it says that in the rental contract and he says that it is obvious so it doesn't need to be mentioned. He gets very aggressive and threatens the police if we don't all pony up 50 euros. I ask him why fixing a tyre would cost 6x50 euros and he says it's a fine for our behaviour. We either pay the 50eu each or **** off without our ATVs. Stuck between a rock and a hard place we pay up, as we didn't want our plans ruined. The guy fixes the tyre and ends up waiving us off in the most friendly way you've ever seen. My blood is boiling. This mother****er was probably a bit annoyed by the fact that we hardballed the negotiation, and now saw a great chance to still **** us in the ass. There is nothing we can do, as local law enforcement is probably his brother. Plus we are 6 tourists, any Greek scumbag **** would be happy to see us get ****ed over. The girl feels super guilty which was even worse, as it put a ig damper on the group atmosphere as she felt she was racking up a bill on my name that she could have never afforded. I make it clear to her that I couldn't give two ****s about the money, but it still kinda ruined her weekend.

We tour around the island and apart from the incident have a great time. We end up not scoring with any of the ladies. I got in a night of making out and some hot and bothered cuddles, but when going for the kill she said she wasn't that kind of girl. Fair game, still more than worth my time and effort! The last day we have lunch at the same spot when out of the blue I get this cartoon lightbulb idea moment. All of a sudden I knew how we could get this guy for what he'd done to us. On our way back to the shop from the lunch, we would pass by a supermarket. I run inside and buy a funnel and a 1kg pack of sugar. Sugar and gasoline don't mix very well. You end up with a gooey maple syrup kind of substance that will **** up any combustion engine with 100% certainty. When you rent these things you have to pay for an insurance on it. Now we obviously can't drive them all off a cliff and get away with it, but this way we would at least destroy all 6 engines and it would be done while we are nowhere near the machines. The customers that are using them when they seize up will just get a replacement ATV. I understand that it will be annoying, and that they might also face some of his wrath. But sometimes revenge comes with collateral damage.

So I tell them all to pop open the gas cap. Carefully poor in a few handfuls of sugar in each tank and we drop them off around the corner. I instructed the girls to immediately turn the things off when we reach the driveway. As if one of these things seizes on us, and then the rest follows suit we are ****ed. The girls again perform above and beyond expectation. We drop off the keys and get the friendliest handshake from this sirtaki dancing plate breaking cumstain and bugger off.

Now I was too afraid to go back myself to see the damage we had done. I mean he wouldn't be able to pin anything on us, but I had a feeling he didn't need to in order to justify roughing us up. So after a few drinks I come up with a marvelous idea yet again. I give the shop a call and ask them to offer me a quote on renting ATVs for a big group. When I was there I noticed they had a total of 10 ATVs. We used 6 of them, so if I ask to rent 10 and they say that's fine my plan had failed. I call the shop and tell them we want to rent 10 ATV's asap and ask them to offer us a price. I hear the voice of the boss on the other line and feel the fury in his voice when he says he only has 4 ATVs available because the other ones are in the garage. I thank him for the information and tell him I will find another shop. The entire crew bursts out laughing and we celebrated our victory in style.

To add insult to injury one of the girls shows that women are the ones with the truly vicious minds. She says it would be fun if we sent over a few people over the next few days, all asking to rent between 5 and 10 ATVs. That way he will feel like he missed out on so much income. So that day and the next day, we asked a few friends to go over to that place and ask for rental quotes. When the 3rd group came back to tell us what had happened we heard that the boss was seen throwing around a big stack of papers in the office after they said they really needed at least 8 ATVs and that the price was good but that they would look somewhere else.

A couple of days later I couldn't resist and decided to go back myself to see what happens. I come over asking to rent a car for the weekend, saying we needed groceries and wanted to get around for a few days. He had no idea I was the one that ****ed him over. He offered me a 10% discount on the folder price of a small Fiat and jokingly warned me that a flat tire would be 50 euros per person again. I laughed really hard, letting him believe I was laughing at his joke. I tell him I forgot my credit card and would be back in a few minutes to finish up the paperwork. I obviously never returned to that spot ever again

OP TF happened ITT?

I read page one and page 7 only, you've gone from 2NL on an eleven dollar roll to playing 5/T? Care to catch me up?

Quick cliff notes:

Ran 11$ roll up to 130ish
Got staked for an MTT sunday and cash for about 17k
Started opensitting HU on bitcoin site on a staking deal
Started grinding 6 max NLHE on deal as well
Sun run 200 and 400nl and get the clear to basically play whatever I feel is worth my time with 1knl or 600PLO as max stake.

1knl shot was pretty disgusting, and also got butt****ed at 600 in spots I couldn't do a damn thing about. So for now I will still mainly be playing 200 and 400nl.

Still have my pokerstars roll untouched, might turn it into a challenge of some sorts. Just don't think I will have time for it, as I really want to focus on getting back to a place where I can play these stakes on my own. For the deal I don't play on pokerstars, so I will just leave the roll untouched for the time being, and think of some sort of challenge or prop bet when the time is right. Because I did have a lot of fun trying to build up and despite the recent mood that it is impossible to start from the micros nowadays. I think it is possible if you work really hard.

Today is gonna be a beach and pina colada day. Nothing much to do except for wait till my accounts are opened back up.
