zero chance he'd make it a week in construction and then he'd only use that experience to justify being unemployed

if you genuinely think he'd be good at construction, buy him a ticket, put him up at a motel and give him a job, otherwise stfu wynner

OP should try to go back to college. Bad mistake to fail college, a degree could have been a decent fallback plan should poker not work out. He's not got the right personality for manual labor or the army or anything similar. He's far too emotional for that.

And in the mean time, play some poker. There's been no poker in this thread for ages.

Pretty much this. Lol at the construction site advice for OP-missing the target by a landslide.

Why not enroll in college just for the sake of being able to procrastinate on those responsibilites by playing poker?

Given OP's naivety he's probably able to trick his own mind.

Going back to college is an awful idea for him. It'd just change the thread from "This week I'm going to play poker" and doing nothing into "This week I'm going to go to my lectures" and doing nothing.

Well he's got to do something with his life and I think going back to college is the best option at this point. And in the mean time, book a mental health professional and play some poker at reasonable stakes (where the losses wouldn't hurt him).

But knowing OP, he will make big long posts about having a "fresh start" while doing absolutely nothing.

LOL, this is the best idea in the thread. Once poker is seen as the way to procrastinate from his main responsibility he’ll put in crazy volume.

6bet have you ever done a tax return? Didn't sound like you had any idea about it. Maybe you have a bunch of unclaimed money I thought I read you were a pizza boy before?

Also you can withdraw another 10k from your super now. That will get you back in the game and crushing.

OP should go pro at connect 4. I have been coaching it for years, and I will give him a family and friends discount

#connect4proforlife

I am also semi pro in both candyland AND chutes and ladders

That's what I thought too back in S1: he just needs to get his ass kicked, maybe sign up for the army or do some other stupid manly **** to get on the right track, but midway S2 I realized this would create problems that would make "The Return of 6bet me" look like a picnic. Loss of control in basically every post OP made in the last 2-3 months, how long do you think is he going to last in any job given the shape he's in right now?

I see it the other way. If he NEEDED to pay bills, he'd get a job, go a good enough job to not get fired, and complain about it. I don't think he'd rage quit or melt down or not be able to get out of bed.

Do I think he has low key mental illness? Obviously. But I think it's more rooted in narcissism. He doesn't want to do stuff, so he doesn't, because he has something to fall back on.

This. Living for free with his mom makes him able to do nothing. Without that pillow i bet the situation would be different.

I don't know what thread you guys are reading, but the way I see it 6bet goes broke now, is forced to take some kind of low-pay job, deposits his first paycheck on pokerbros or takes it to the casino or flips the whole thing in another desperate attempt of trying to impress his "friends".

He needs help, he said this himself. If he could figure it out by himself he would have done so a long time ago. I love the irresponsible degen shenanigans as much as the next guy, but this is where it's going to stop (I think the 22 hour naps are an indication of this ).

You gave it your best shot (no pun intended lol).

RIP 6bet me.

This. He already effed up in Uni by playing too much poker instead of studying back then. Of course, now that he has the opportunity and a little of a roll to play poker, he obviously finds the next escape. Therapy is a must at this point. Or hit rock bottom.

I'm confused with what you're trying to say. You first said that he couldn't keep a job, and now you're saying that he'll blow his money.

Obviously he's going to torch money, but he's not an invalid who cannot function in society. I think you're taking the "I stayed in bed all day" stuff as he wants you to. I think a more likely scenario is that he's sad he's not sunrunning, is facing some crisis of conscious, but feels some sort of moral way about this thread. So he wants to be lazy and watches youtube/plays chess/gets mommy to bring him food all day so he can say "Guys I was in bed ALL DAY" and not technically be lying while projecting that this new depression (because remember for years he yelled that he had zero mental illness and had a doctor's note to prove it) is the reason why he's not a baller yet.

There's always got to be an excuse that's not himself. This is just the new one. Which is odd, because I think we all think he has some sort of underlying mental illness that he should seek help for.

6bm, I know you think I’m a troll or a hater or whatever but I’m a few years older than you and I see a lot of me in you in the way you think about life and things, although a lot of differences as well. I hope that one day you can turn things around and find the motivation to do what you enjoy because I don’t think it’s poker. GL.

Edit: I’m learning JavaScript on the side of playing poker, has programming ever interested you?

There's always got to be an excuse that's not himself.
All of that. 6b had no problem grinding 8 hours per day for 5 days per week when he was winning. He's losing and suddenly everyone's talking about how he has problems because he's deflecting the issue from himself. According to his posts, he should make an appointment for a therapist. But the fact is he won't because that's not going to give him a rush with the money he has left. He doesn't have to be lazy but he chooses to be and that's extremely obvious.

Yeah his issues are being a lazy POS and making stupid decisions. He may have some low-grade mental illness like mild depression but basically he just can't be bothered not to eff up his life.

There are a lot of reasons why 99% of people who set out to be perfessional gamboolers fail.

Mike Tyson said every one has a plan till they get punched in the face

Getting your ass handed to you day in and day out can be very difficult to deal with and is a reason why many fail. Its got nothing to do with being lazy. Until you have experienced it you have no idea how painful it is. I am not making excuses for 6betme. Cuz the fact is he has not even gotten a love tap yet. Some people just do not the fortitude to deal with losing and continue to grind away on an even keel through the what seems to be never ending string of beats etc. This appears to be a major hurdle that he simply can not overcome.

This. The players on poker bros seemed bad enough that he could at least break even at 60nl or 100nl and collect the rakeback. If he can get into another union which is apparently not that difficult to do.

Yeah, I'm not saying people are lazy because they can't take the hardships of being a pro grinder. I agree that eating beats and downswings is tough just from my personal experience, and I've never had to simply continue playing when I'm not feeling it, because I've never paid the bills with poker.

I'm saying that specifically OP is lazy, and that's apparent from his posts, including the ones where he's LARP-ing as a poker pro.
