Mastering Mental Game and Mental Health
no money for you, ever
my man
haha, i know, i always have to double take the name to check who's posting
haha my bad
Hmm what intrigues me is that some other motor control oriented things (juggling, learning instruments etc...) can have a very weird learning pattern from my experience. As in you struggle struggle struggle and then *CLICK* you've got it and take a quantum leap.
Never done a three figure keepie-up I don't think but I wouldn't be surprised if you fall into a very safe and comfortable rhythm at some sudden point a few weeks in. It's "only" 10-12 minutes after all... Still super hard, but I'd like to think possible.
Fun bet!

sometimes yeah
When I was recovering from ACL surgery, I always used to do keep ups in my kitchen on my breaks from poker. Always 3 sets, just see how many I can get to, and could consistently average 80ish by a few months, and lots of the drops were due to enclosed space. You improve super quick, I reckon you got a shot, but i deffo never got to 1k, maybe 300+ but legs start cramping after a while.
Probs woudn't bet it at evens but for 10k probs worth it and think it's basically in your own control to make yourself a lock if you are semi competent at football already.

won't be doing that
fml, bet off
love bena's side of this, for 10k you just grind it out 2 hours a day or so for 20 days, you improve so quickly, 1k is eeeeeeeasy. for the actual attempt, fatigue will definitely be an issue, if you have a couple of close fails you'll be better off just waiting till tomorrow.
also knees definitely not easier, alternate feet ftw

look how easy it is!
I played in a juveniles team that won pretty much everything in Scotland when I was 15-17, and there were multiple players in my team who couldn't manage 10 keepie-ups. Pretty damning statement on quality of football up here!
Actually think the line on this is about right. It's definitely something you'll get way, way better at with time. Think the 1k mark will more come down to how good your mental game is at 850+ once you get good at them. Just don't bottle it and you'll be fine.

NEVER
I did some for laughs with my little brother after 10 years of not doing it and made it to 350 in a couple tries when my record was 131.. super ez with practice, would say way to go is one touch with each foot with some extra with your good foot to reposition comfortably.

Ok, so wrt to the bet, some people wanting to bet against/for. If and that's a big if, (i imagine i'm like 10% to take the bet as it stands) I won't be booking any more than 10k action with steve. If he wants to sell some of his action to others then that's his prerogative. I'm gunna give it a bit more thought and make a decision.
Would be a super sick bet and a real sweat. My doubts comes from smb's confidence. He's very good at football and has played for years. I do still think i could do it though, so we'll see. Gotta factor in not playing poker all month and the potential $ swing of not grinding + losing 10k haha.
---
Things haven't gone great since my last update. Been playing 4x500z and 6-7 regular tables on the side. Played a LOT of 1k which is a ton of fun, but i should tone it down a bit with table count.
biggest pot so far vs rec and innerpsy(bb)[wtf is he doing?]

Hell of a bluff I give him that
Lol what how is the 340/60sec even possible.
Btw, in 1 month, you could definitely learn and do 1000 in a row. Just depends of how much time/day you wanna spend screwing around practicing for it and be bored out of your mind

Glad you managed to scrape a 1.5k win.

When are you going to let me and my friends lead you astray?
lol so curious about who ran the A5dd bluff
w teh AA was already wondering. even i dont fold there (and if i dont fold it should be pretty clear its a cawl). joeingram had a saying back in teh days: "its hard to make quads, kid" - still v accurate wisdom for todays games...
got me so so good
man, comments like this make me wanna snap it up, but im too scared
there wasn't anything said about scraping a win!
haha, what's that supposed to mean?!
you woulda folded for sure. although teh hand wasn't on an ipad so you'd never have been at the table in the first place

I don't mind the qq, not like crusty 2 is a snap call for hero. He just shouldn't try it vrs station reg
^+1 I didn't think turning QQ into a bluff was that bad unblocking both FD and Straights.
pretty sure the 99 bluff is fine

you're gonna have to move up then, also please enlighten me as to which hand you would shove as a bluff on the river if you don't shove 99 there
99 bluff= clearly fish

9Tss, TJss?
JTss is not peeling turn but yeah T9ss should definitely be bluffed before 99, 77d would probably be another one, it does depend a lot on villain's pre flop strat. I'm just surprised some people can't see why shoving 99 would be okay
hahaha, <3 this
you gotta find a gif for him!
nah, this QQ bluff is totally abysmal. there isn't any justification for it
yeah tbf the 99 is ok in theory, however in reality population bets turn too polorised to bluff this hand. That's my opinion on pop, not arguing optimal strategy
aw, thanks
haha it's a reg, i assure you
hard for him to have these
lmao, so much this, always

Got pretty pumped today. Was fun nonetheless!
vs dogreg. this one brought me great suffering
fml, shoulda folded again
grim vs rec who was going all in a LOT and dogreg from hand 1
First day of uni tomorrow! Excited to get back into studying. I imagine poker will be played less and less as deadlines creep up on me.
After the research weekend I've got some ideas for my dissertation topic (writing it the following year) and it's possibly gunna be around my relationship with money. Particularly the taking of money from clients - this is a widely discussed topic; the way people pay - agonising with coins, giving extra etc. And then obv including the fact that i play poker for a living and how my perception of money has become quite warped.
These are all very preliminary ideas so we'll see how the idea develops over the year.
see y'all thursday.

First day of uni tomorrow! Excited to get back into studying. I imagine poker will be played less and less as deadlines creep up on me.
After the research weekend I've got some ideas for my dissertation topic (writing it the following year) and it's possibly gunna be around my relationship with money. Particularly the taking of money from clients - this is a widely discussed topic; the way people pay - agonising with coins, giving extra etc. And then obv including the fact that i play poker for a living and how my perception of money has become quite warped.
These are all very preliminary ideas so we'll see how the idea develops over the year.
see y'all thursday.

Definitely an interesting idea. I know working in finance AND playing poker have a really warped my view on money compared to my peers. I am much more apt to take risk and also much less affected by financial variance than most average working professionals.
