Thx for the gl's above, same back to you guys in 2013!

Hehe like siq said, beer is so good with like everything though! I think if I can just not drink unless I'm out, that will be solid enough as I'm not going to be going out to eat as much in 2013, which means I'll spend less nights degening in Tijuana which = less beer consumption .

Yea for sure, mostly going to try to improve diet and just get in at least SOME exercise every day. I'm pretty naturally strong, I went and lifted one day with my buddy while home and it was the first time I had lifted since I graduated HS and I benched 220 10/8/6 times in 3 sets without really any strain/difficulty...nothing outstanding at my height and weight (like 6 ft 3, 315 or so), but not horrid for not lifting in like 3 yrs.

Haha, not going to try to get ripped in 2013, just need to shred some weight

I'm definitely down to go hit weekly, will take me a while to get my eyes readjusted, hopefully after a few weeks I can be somewhere near your skill level. Was decent in HS but have gained weight and haven't hit at all since I graduated HS.

Sounds good, I'm all for cooking lessons

Nice graphs broski, steady upward, sexy line on the 9m ht graph


Cool, yea fig'd it was something like 18-24 on screen most of the time. Yea I manually register the games, I don't game select....I just don't trust TN

Haha we're gonna do a fair amount of motivation props, not sure on punishments, maybe we'll have to brainstorm

_______________________________________

Happy New Year to everyone, going to a buddy's house tonight to watch the NIU/FL St game. For those who don't know, NIU is located about 15 mins from my house and I know a ton of kids that go there, so gotta root for them!

Excited for Mexico as always, 2 days away!

Sounds like your on for a big grind for the year ruse! Hope we wont bump into eachother too often.

GL to you both!

Vivaaaaaaaaaaaa Mehhheeeco!

So stoked to be leaving Illinois and heading back to Rosa in the morning. I land about 2:20pm in San Diego and my buddy and I are going to have to rush if we're going to get back to my condo in Rosarito and then make to the bar it in time for the Kstate/Oregon bowl game, but we're gonna try our best!

I think after the game we'll either end up in Tijuana (my plan as of now) or just at a sports bar to shoot some pool/throw darts/etc if we're too tired to go hard all night.

I probably will get in a couple short sessions of $60s on Friday just to get back in the swing of things; planning on playing 2-5 individual sessions of $60s, reviewing a bunch of spots, and then jumping back up to my normal stakes. I will say, however, that the games are SUPER gross right now at the $200 level, if the games don't clear up, I may be forced to GG the idea of going for 4mil vpps and just drop down or play offpeak.....I'm going to do w/e is best for my hourly. Basically if I can lose at 1.5% or less pre RB at my normal abi of mixing $100s-200s, it will be better than what I could do winning pre RB at a small clip at $30s-200s offpeak. Just going to keep an open mind and make adjustments as I see fit

Here are my 'official' 2013 goals as I posted them in the STTF thread, lets gooooooooooo.

can we bet on whether you do the goals?


i wanna bet on the "0 mtts outside of coops"

Best of luck for 2013! Hope to see you have another great year ^.^

Hmmm hadn't thought about that, but yea, we can do a bet. How much do you want to book on it? Would be up for any 'friendly' amount, like $500-1000 range I guess. Obviously I was talking only online MTTs, as I've been saying, will be playing a good amount of live events throughout the year

Thx, same to you Ryan, lets go!


________________________________________________

Would entertain other bets to some of my yearly goals, mainly the '1800+ online hrs' and 'no mtts online outside of _coop'. Unless I know you well though, I'd want you to escrow your money with me (I'd hold the funds all yr long)

I'd bet you on the _COOPs, lmk Josh gl

Off to a slow start but running good. Actually didnt look at my graph for a day but now back to checking it after every session. Behind SNE pace but i havent been putting in many sessions and the sessions have been short since i still feel like **** from NYE. Gonna finish moving into my new place tmrw and then get on the grind.

Dont have redline patch for 60s so redline most likely isnt as good as it appears.



Gonna try and go back to no sweating results. Gonna do some freerolls to help motivate me. One person each FR, quote the one you want.

No looking at graph or cashier until 1/10
9k VPP by end of day 1/4
17k VPP by end of day 1/6

$50 each

got it

if you lose, i will use my 50 to spew at some bar at some point down in rosa. or, maybe at HK. i heard 50 gets you a decent amount of "stuff"

Mine pl0x

Aww, that's what I get for not checking 2+2 religiously

Also wish I had some cash to wager vs jdawg on the nothing but _COOP bet

will get that bet going with josh when i get down to rosa. will hammer out the details over a 36 pack

Sounds good sir, I'll message you after Zima and I get details put together for it

Snap book

Haha (rain) (rain)

HKKKKKKKKKK, LETS GOOOOOOOOO

____________________________

Surprised people aren't snapping to book 1800+ hrs online, have always been lazy as *** and dont think I've hit >1200 hrs a in year before, played about 1075 last yr

ruse are those 6m hyper swongs standard or was part of that cuz of overloading to get to 200k vpps?

im surprised at the diff between ur 9m and 6m giraffes

Yessssss! Bol in 2013 ruse & jdawg!!!! Ruse, nice post about bf, I hope you guys crush it.

I would snap book 1.8k+ hrs, but 500-1k is a bit too much for me

Those are pretty standard swings, i kept it below 16 tables finishing up.

6m will have a lower roi so more swings but the main difference between the two is that i ran extremely well at the 9m hyper and extremely poorly at 6m.

Zima, sounds like a plan and yeah 50 dollars will buy you a bit more in TJ. Though i dont think ive ever had a TJ trip where i spent under 300. When are you getting to Rosa, do you know?


This one is for you KingNit. GO DUCKS

Thx bud. Gl in 2013 with both poker and family. You still thinking of setting up a grind spot in Mex or Canada?

id also do a bet on them mtts (say 100$? )

Ty man,

Kinda thinking about Canada for 3 months before the wsop main. I'd want to move the family with me if I wanted to stay for weeks or months at a time. I need there to be places to go for my wife & kids and be safe at the same time. I'm just not sure about Caribbean or Mexico wrt to what we would need. It would be cool if I could just fly somewhere and grind for a week sometime myself but afaik that's not an option without being approved first.

Just a question,

so by making SNE you get $100k on top of the $90,000 profit you already made including rakeback?

I'd bet my whole roll on Josh not playing one MTT outside of TCOOP for the entire year. How many times have we heard that one?

"NO MORE MTTS GUYS I SWEAR!!! 150 HOURS A WEEK OF HYPERS FROM NOW ON AND I'M RIGHT ON SCHED FOR 2.5MM VPPS!"

God forbid he binks something in the TCOOP and gets his confidence up in MTTs.

Too bad I'd have to escrow and wouldn't be able to play at all.

ruse:


me and swish getting to rosa on friday. maybe will hit one of you up to come chill and give us a run down on some stuff i need to know about rosa.


lets gooooooooooooooooo

supernova elite grind dog. thread of the year . jdawg and ruse going for elite. woahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
