Ill try and keep this short:

- been laid off my previous job and didnt make much money anyway so next to no savings
- only jobs ive been fit for due to lack of education are labour jobs yet ive had so many physical problems that it i feel pretty limited
- if all goes well I may actually have something setup for aug. 1 or will be able to get insurable earnings
- took a job which was described as something i could do without messing myself up but turned out to not be the case
- playing huht 7s and really looking to move up, should move up but gfinancial situation hurts my risk taking abilities
- I am getting some coaching from a very nice person who is kind enough to help me out for no financial gain(at least for the moment)
- I have a backer if required(hope it never comes to that)
- My future plans are to get a job while grinding at night and when i have sufficent funds to be able to withstand the variance to turn this into pantsless self employment and look into getting an education so i can plan finally for a real career.
- no this isnt a level. I actually do want to work pants free

Playing the 7s and trying to move up with no promised income and low br is clearly insane and its not at all what i want for myself but im stuck with it for the time being.
I am looking for a job but in the long run i wanna play poker and never have to wear pants EVER AGAIN. Actually i want an education and have a true career but to live free of pants and play poker is a dream so hopefuly in a year or so this can be doable.

Subbed!!!! GL mate!

You missed the obligatory lifetime graph in op though

sorry garlic im a confirmed forum fish and dont even know how to properly make threadsavers

huhts lifetime 1.5s to 7s... and failed shots at 15s

FYP

great start to thread. 12 whole games. I am hungover so dont really wanna play. Its sad how easily alcohol affects me the day after. A year ago i could probably drink a 12 case and work all day and still play poker with a clear mind but apparently 6 beers and 4 hrs sleep is enough to hurt me. feeling old atm

In GL!

guess i should post some other things about myself.
I love skateboarding but due to all injuries ive lost most the dedication towards it. I live in a house with 4 friends and its pretty cool, we all get along decently well and the rent is unbeatable. I have 2 ferrets and will post a few pics later. Here is a vid of me skateboarding. Im the ginger(hence the fact its night footage)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6cs1h2FsuNM

FYP again. You're doing it wrong!

thankfully someones doing it right haha

Isn't it everyones dream to work without pants!!!

I think it should be!


Im going to write down a few weekly goals for now to sunday july 27:

- Play around 500 games
- My br is 22bi's away from 1500 so if I run/play well enough take some more shots at 15s and hope that I can stay there. Will be a little bit of a long shot maybe considering I may have to withdraw some survival fees
- Study at least 1hr a day of poker theory and give myself a little time to study some mental game leaks as well
- Get in a coaching session and make a video review
- Skateboard at least twice
- do yoga and physio and drink a protein shake including fruits and spinach every morning
- dont get arrested for indecent exposure when going out to get the mail in the morning


Daily:

reflect on my session and rate it between a b or c game. I used to do this when playing cash but got out of the habit while trying to practise and study purely theory of huht's and need to bring it back as a habit




I guess thats all for now. GL everyone

GL WITH the grind buddy!

thanks you to

well im off to a great start for the week. Ended up being rematched for 3hrs by an unknown who godmoded me. He was nice in chat but I wonder if he would be nice if he wasnt up 10bi's. Seems I have a day like this almost weekly lately. Anyway it is what it is and i can handle it. On a good note I just had a convo with an old co-worker. The company I had worked for the past few years is coming back under new ownership so I should be employed by august 1 at the latest. Will be confirmed tomorrow. I will post a few hands later... some educational and some for entertainment value. Hope you all have a better day at the tables then I did.

Poker Tools Powered By Holdem Manager - The Ultimate Poker Software Suite. View Hand #29026661

SB: 500 (25 bb)
Hero (BB): 500 (25 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BB with T J
SB raises to 40, Hero calls 20

Flop: (80) 8 8 5 (2 players)
Hero checks, SB bets 40, Hero calls 40

Turn: (160) 2 (2 players)
Hero checks, SB checks

River: (160) J (2 players)
Hero checks not ok to ever chk this river. wtf me.. A high K high calls here often enough to get value and it always chks back as well.

vs villian who rematched for 3 hrs... he was literally taking this exact line with all his air for at least half the battle

so this is vs a reg who has a serious ego problem. I blocked his chat so just seeing his table talk now...its always the same, his most common phrases are: "posting hand on forum for all regs to see" "im top 3 regs at 7s" "i do this for a living and make 1500 a month", seriously how does that add up to 7k and why is 1500 a month or 7k in 6.5 months a brag. and of all things wtf is huj?

Gl man subbed. Since you hate pants so much I hope you atleast wear some underwear.

if I did this for a living and was up 7k so far this year I wouldn't feel like bragging...
Did a quick google search for HUJ, seems to mean "penis"
Guy obv has mental issues which is to be expected after 50k games at 7s

Lol that kid dosen´t have an easy life

he only has 20k games with consistent results but still wtf is the point. If i dont get my s*** together that maybe my future. I already "posted on forum for all regs to see" so im at a headstart to stooping down to his level.

today i played 10 matches trying to make a video review and it didnt work. I had a ton to do so I didnt get anything else done on goals list. It sounds like I can start working as early as friday however they want me in all weekends so i actually havent even decided if I will go back. Probably will because I need to eat and pay bills but if i do im looking elsewhere for employment.
Tomorrow my poker goal is to play 100 games+ and make a video and ofc study 1hr or more.

glgl with errything

thanks! In my experience the only ppl I have known other then a few 2p2ers that skateboard all are extreme donators of the game other then 1 person whos brother is a professional.

So today was a bit of a frustrating session. I feel I played pretty well but only got 80 games in. doubt ill reach 100. I did book a win barely and ran quite a bit below ev. I did yoga 30 minutes and it was so hard because last night I skated harder then I have in about 18 months. It feels good to be skating again close to pain free. Its funny when you block ppls chat and they still talk for 20 minutes after you told them you blocked there chat. All in all everything was a challenge for me to do today but I did most of it.
