I'm not not sure if srs..

You might want to have a read through the thread.

He is in a relationship he enjoys, he is doing something he ( presumably ) enjoys in a nice country. Happiness isn't measured in money.

Apologies for sounding like a hippy I promise I am not nor do I read the Guardian.

[QU

And i would like to thank all the people who helped me out so far. These are the donations i got so far + $217 i got in paypal from cbayly12. For a grand total of $307. Couldn't be more happy about that.
These donations will help me out a lot paying for new visa in Laos, travel cost, rent, food, gas, motorbike payment, internet, phone, things for wash and that kind of things that are needed. I still have a lot of grinding to do for building a liferoll that covers like 2-3 months of my living expenses.
I believe i can do it. Hope to be able to move up soon. But have to withdraw like 100-150 tomorrow from my poker roll as i need to go Laos and money arrive in 3-4working days. So im probably still stuck at $1.5 hypers for some time. Hope to catch up my EV in the next days

Didn't follow during the weekend, I would like to send my last 10$s on stars, which is the ID player?
Going on holiday soon (not thayland ), for the moment I send those...

you are right in everything you said but you totally neglected his financial side of things. Do you know how long $250 will last for 2 people and 2 dogs in Thailand? He is basically a charity case, people have sent him money like one would give a begger on the street, and you keep telling him "carry on". He needs some tough love.

His business model doesn't look too great either mainly due to naivety, lack of funds and what looks like being forced into marriage alot sooner than he wants. Even if he does do well and I hope he does, that wont be the end of his worries. He needs to man up now and sort his life out, I.e call his parents for a bit of money, tell his gf that they will get married but not so soon, instead of having his tail between his legs and being a total pussy about the whole thing which is what he is doing. Everybody is walking all over him, its time he says NO!

His whole line of thinking is flawed and totally lateral, not looking into other way to create cash flows, sell expensive items, find other jobs online, contact parents for a short term loan. I could be stepping out of line here but he is a total idiot (judging by this thread) when it comes to live and how to fix this pretty sad situation.


It may come across as harsh, but its what he has to do, unless you see a better way for him to remedy this situation?

+1

lol, stfu already

PE, nobody said this guy made the best choices...he's young and we all did stupid things at his age...the point is he is stuck in this situation now and he has to make the best of it...so no point of lecturing him now...I do agree that he needs to get some cash together in order to play decent games if he's a winning player...

Yes you are right GG, I just have too much time on my hands

Worst part is one day he'll realize that he should not have married the first woman that spoke to him. Broken English and 4/10 looks wont make a man happy. You can't be in LOVE with someone you can barely communicate with.

Yes i know theres tons of Thai women who speak proper educated english but they are NOT on the website he found her and they certaintely do not graduate from crappy universities (hundreds of thai universities are no better than elementary school in a US ghetto)

This is a classic case of an introverted person getting his first bit of attention in his life.

What infuriates me the most is that hes accepting donations and trying to look desperate. I was in thailand with 2 kids when bluffroom stole my whole roll. I had 0 to my name. A mortgage. A car. I was already only playing 50e because black friday was painfull. I didnt post about it or beg nor would i have accepted any pity money. Coaching ok but everything else makes him kind of sad.

And lol to whoever thinks you can enjoy life with 250$ a month in thailand. PeoplesElbow pretty much tried to go as low as you can with money and he was no where near 250$ living the fun busto life. He's one ****up away from recycling plastic bottles for a living and scamming people. Theres hundreds of guys like him under the bridges of thailand.

Thin is it only shows how lazy he is. He could teach english at a location away from his city. maybe 25-30mins by bike for 1000$/pm. Low hours.

Im definitely rooting for failure until he shows that he wants to better himself. He needs to learn the hard way that nothing comes free.. Then you have idiots sending him 2x his roll. sigh.

Giving money/supporting a women that you barely know = silly. She was fine before you met her, then why would she suddenly need your help? Be critical about things in life.

I especially agree with those two statements. Marrying someone w/o spending heaps of time together first works out fine for a very small % of ppl imo. The rest end in divorce or worse. OP living like a 2p2 beggar whoring out his life to receive small amounts of $, is just very sad indeed.

this is a joke, right?

He could teach it in the non tourist areas, the standard are not high, but he would be making around $800-$1200 month

Had some great coaching yesterday from Alex and my game improved a lot so far. I studied for couple hours, plugging some leaks and keep notes of the leaks i had. Printed paper for visa, scans and pictures. Have to go wednesday to Laos.

Withdrew 100euro and i have enough right now for pay the bills and go to Laos. The extra 6000baht from gf work helps too together with the donations.

Im very happy about how my game has become a lot better, thx to alex, but unfortunetely im running terribad and biggest ds i had so far in hypers. But with BOP bonus and spending my points playing 235 storm sattelites, im around break even for 2 last days.
Hope to get some good amount of games in today and show some profit, want to move up real bad as i should easily beat higher.

Gf is kind of annoyed by me not giving time to her every night, but she understands i need to do the things a man need to do to survive in this world.

Will be taking a shot at 3.5 hypers when i reach 300 and will move back down if reach under 250.

And damn u true move internet, it's getting laggy lately as for the previous months it was very stable. My apartment wifi isn't great, but does the job if needed as back up. I have connectify dispatch pro for combine my connections, but it doesn't switch as fast as they say it does when one of 2 connections is disconnected.

And btw, my gf speaks better english than u might think. She improved a lot since i first met her. She is an excellent student and learnes quickly. We communicate very well, but yea sometimes she have to ask a word she doesn't understand.
My english isn't perfect either, but as a 3rd language in my country, i think im doing just fine.

Good luck all, will update with graph later.

Gf is kind of annoyed by me not giving time to her every night, but she understands i need to do the things a man need to do to survive in this world.

Then why is she annoyed?

Jussayin...

the things a man need to do to survive in this world:

[ ] job
[ ] never ever accepting handouts (never lose/fail mentality)
[ ] wearing the pants

Lovedaphils, I think you need to look up what survive means..

Everybody who plays poker + gf knows this kinda BS, lol. Standard...

Lets do a challenge:

If u manage to play +EV over 500 games I donate some monnies to you. If not, post some threadsavers

lold so hard.

if you open up the command prompt, and ping the server of the site you are playing on, for example you type in " Ping 8.8.8.8 -t" This will constantly ping the server you are connecting too, so if there is big lag time and alot of failed pings, perhaps dont grind or open so many tables before hand.





ill pay for him NOT to post savers unless there of other slootz

This has to be a huge level, no?

Why don't you give us your definition/interpretation?

Instead of one off, one liners...

Love has a different meaning to everyone. Some people don't believe in it at all. So who are you to say what kind of girl can make him happy?? Just because you are shallow does not mean everyone is like you. I have friends back home who are married to gross looking, overweight women and they are perfectly happy with their lives. Almost everyone does silly things at his age. At least he had the balls to come out here and give it a try rather than just sit in his parents basement til he's 30 y/o like some people...give the kid a break...it's better to try and fail than not try at all....*** the haters OP
as far as him teaching English...it's obviously not his first language...he can write it somewhat but this does not mean he speaks it well...I doubt too many schools are gonna be lining up to hire a Dutch English teacher....

Dude is making ev adj 8.50/h playing 1.50s. Could prob make 20/h at the 7s atm if rolled and double that with some coaching and larger roll. LOL at quitting to teach english. Dude is prob more equipped to make money than most grinders in Thailand (except for the not having a roll and spending every cent he makes on his gf part).

Ty !

Exactly

thanks for the tip

Yea, would be kinda stupid to change work as i need money now and not after a month of work.
And yes i use hotkeys from tableninja as i forget to answer you that before.


Have good time on your holiday
Ty a lot !

Month is finished, made about 600. Have about $200 in ps for start october. Skyped with Alex a bit and he helped me out on my early game. Was kind of an eye opener how wrong my game is in the first hands.
Did some hours studying the new stuff and dropped my tables to 8-10 for today so i can focus on putting the new stuff in my game. I think i did good and tried to put as much of the new stuff into my game. Im very excited learning new stuff from him. Can't thank him enough for helping me on my game and it's motivating me a ton to play.
Hope my future results and make my story have a good ending is the way for saying thank you to those who helped.


Goals for october are;
- 9000 hypers
- $1500<

September graph

i might help him out a bit if he posts some pic for proof. i have to put a face or two to this story.
