I have a time machine

Haha super sick, great chat we had tonight broski...hope you recover asap <3


Quick 10 second vid of him from during the grind today...link takes you to google drive

I read somewhere about panic attacks. Test vitamin levels of vitamin d and vitamin B12. Gl on the grind

Yes, but there are also a lot of bots/2nd accounts showing up lately.
There are always waves where a lot of new players show up (oct-dec 2018 for example)
And >90% of them are gone max. 1month later
of course they are not all bots (new players catching an upswing at the start and quit after the first downer)
but a lot of them are bots/multiaccounters only in december i reported 3 accounts who aren´t around anymore since then.
As probably a lot of the satregs are reading this thread.
Guys dont be nitty reporting suspicious accounts!(stars is really fast/good in detecting that bots/2nd accounts imo)
It can be worth it taking the time to hold our games clear and get some refunds on top (you probably remember the bigger refund for the 2 colluders i reported last year for example)
New players coming out of nowhere playing tons of games and solid is obv always a good indicator sometimes they are even dumb enough not hiding their stats and you can see they played their 1st game on stars 2 weeks ago or something like that..
Great blog btw! see you at the tables

haha I also have another chair by my side only for this lovely creature :

Awww super cute cat Marecki (inlove). I basically want to train my kitten to go there to that chair if he is wanting any attention during the grind as it's going to be the only spot I'll be able to pet him etc . Gotta make that one comfy ass chair amirite

And FragdenInder making an appearance ITT! Welcome my friend, great to have you posting in here haha . I'll make a proper response to your post session, but yes, I 100% agree with what you wrote

Jdawg can i ask you to show some of the SKO hypers 6 max chip/tourney ,im just curious because with bounties there this graphs are quite crazy .Thank you and if u didnt thank you again for the thread .

I will have to look into that if I ever end up having to go back to the doctor. Thanks. And yea same, glgl on the grind

And hey, welcome once again to the thread, much for making the post and I 100% agree as I said above. I remember catching a group of 4 or 5 guys back in early 2018. They played for a long time before Stars finally did something about it; luckily I finally got through to one of the good guys in the stars office. We got that refund on May 25, 2018 and I received almost $4k. I had played a ****ton with all 4/5 of the accounts.

Since then, have caught a few more as well. Have some suspicions about 1 or 2 accounts right now as well. But yea, agree with everything you said and GLGL this weekend

Hey mate, are you wanting to see my CEV results for the SKOs? I'm happy to show you, just have to make sure I know what you are wanting to see . I obviously do not have a big sample of them yet and haven't been playing them recently, but after this weekend I plan to get back to grinding some of them as I stated above.

The variance in them is indeed pretty brutal. Wild wild format to say the least haha. But yea, let me know what you're wanting to see and I'll post it on Sunday night post grind or on Monday for sure

Well, Simba and I are both tired . Just took this right now, he's passed out





I've decided to name him Simba. When I was like 4 years old and received my cat (a girl), The Lion King had just come out and I named her Nala. His markings make the name kind of fit too so ****em!





Been running pretty bad in the 16mans which is annoying as I'm mostly playing $15s+ only whereas basically all of last year I was always playing down to $7.50s and much of the time $4.40s and sometimes even down in the $2.85s! In terms of $s under EV, it's hard to put a figure on it in the 16mans ofc, but I'd say I'm probably 5 figures under EV at them this year 100%. Add in that I'm way under EV at the 25bb 6m hypers and 25bb SKO hypers, and under EV at HS 25bb, and well....not a great start to the year!

Here's some graphs as I was curious and took a gander tonight. Very happy with my 6m sat EV given that I've only played Sundays and the series so far this year and therefore wasn't out here grinding any soft days of sats.

Not terribly happy with my HU evbb/100 in the 16mans, but winning at 4.5 playing a 20 abi of 16mans and while mass tabling my head off and playing ridiculously long sessions makes it not that bad.



LS Sats ($74 and under)




HS Sats





16m 2-4h




16m 2-2h








Day graph below, studying some hands and then Simba and I are passing out!

Name fits him for sure. Like the nostalgia callback to the earlier cats name too imo. All these great cat pics are making me want a cat. Too bad the wife doesn't want another animal lol.

Really impressive thread, i really admire the work ethic. Gl in 2019

been trying to keep him off the new desk cause hes knocked the tv over twice since moving last month

can you pleaseeee send me that wallpaper?

Pm me cuz am on phone and it’s on my pc

Yea for sure, I'm quite happy with the name. Was up in the air about it for a while, but seems to fit him. Cats are pretty confirmed great. GL on the tables dude

Thanks much . GL out there as well

Haha, sweet looking cat...I'm a fan. Still working on teaching this mofo to not bat at/hit my monitors and to not touch the keyboard. He seems to be getting a bit better though.

Unfortunately, pretty brutal Turbo Series ME weekend! This year basically couldn't have started any worse. Oh well, what can ya do besides continuing to crank out volume.

A lot of people probably heard about the Boycott of the $5k Turbo Series PKO on Sunday, if not, here's the 2p2 thread
https://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/2...unday-1736498/

It wasn't a huge success, but there's some positives to be taken from it and the group of regs is continuing to plan action...that Skype channel has been very very busy today.




I took today off to go and test drive my Durango and to get a few other things done IRL. Also had to catch up on my bookkeeping as I hadn't done it since Jan 8th heh.

Durango drove very well, amazing the difference with the suspension now 100% completed. Hit potholes and the speedbumps and could fly right through everything and barely feel a thing...great **** . It looks a bit funny atm as the tires + rims are a bit too small on it, but we'll be getting those ordered from the US this week. Pretty sweet transformation from the day I got it and I really didn't mod it out all that much. Definitely not in comparison to the big truck


The original front end + headlights were so damn ugly. Can't completely see it in this before picture, but yea, tragic lolz. That was my first thought that went through my head when I found that 'before' picture lulz. I still have to get after market fog lights and might get a front lip for it as well but not 100% sure yet.

There will be more/better pics + vids to come once I get new tires + rims put on, but for the moment...


Before



After


+ added something like 150-200 HP under the hood




Going to go get some dinner and then relax and watch some Netflix. Back to the sat grind tomorrow and then afterwards will probably work on some sat study and finally will get back into some 25bb + SKO study. Date night with Minnie tomorrow night, probably hitting up Pasta y Basta. Great Italian place where the chef is from and trained in northern Italy and his family has had restaurants over there since the late 1800s. Will be very tasty as always

GlA on the tables





Graph of the year thus far, YUCK

Can only stress the importance of getting your cats into good habits. Since I moved back home the cats in my house are a pain in the ass as my mum and sister got them into awful habits whilst I was away. Kittens are obviously going to take up your time more as a puppy would and you're never going to get that full level of control but there a tonnes of bad things you can do which make them a pain.

5 years of freedom going outside as long as he wanted didnt help when moving.

the durango looks nice, wonder what kinda wheels you are looking at? looks like the first gen escalade kinda. finally have had some snow to play in with my audi and i looooove it. tires were legit dead and it drove like a dream, would have never known had it not been in to get an oil change. $600 for shoes not for me...

still lots of year left!!!

Yea I completely agree with you. From growing up with animals I feel I'm already fairly educated on the subject. My mom also did home daycare so I helped her out a lot once I got a bit older and therefore have a good amount of experience with small children, which obv applies when it comes to dealing with puppies/kittens/etc. Cats are tougher to train than dogs ofc, but yea, he's already doing pretty good. Have taught him he can't touch my keyboard and he cant bat at/hit my screens and he already has that one down.

He doesn't like to be alone and does a lot of meowing but I just ignore it. Cats are kind of weird in that even if you give them negative reinforcement, they don't take it that way. So usually if he starts one of his meowing fits, I completely ignore him until he stops, and then give him some attention. I'm sure he'll pick up on the fact that his meowing gets him nothing.

Just have to be patient obv

Haha nice sounds fun for sure...I still remember going out cruising in my little malibu in the snow and having some fun. I got it stuck once and had to go home and get my truck (my first truck) and come back and dig it out

I'm not quite sure which rims I'm getting for the Durango, we're still looking at options. Happy to hear any suggestions though ofc. Thinking I want to get General Red Grabber tires, same as I have for the big truck. They're just so top notch in that they are good on both the pavement and offroad, they don't have a ton of road noise, and they last for a lot of miles.

Maybe something that looks like this, not too sure yet though on the rims at all

Grinded a bit Tuesday and Wednesday, looking to play a bit longer of a sat session today though. Post sats I'll probably grind some 25bb and 25bb SKO and then tonight will be doing 25bb study as tomorrow morning I get a massage. Will end up playing just a real quick peak sat session post massage and otherwise hitting 25bb/25bb SKO in the afternoon/evening.

In way more fun news, I'm about to shower and head to the Oxxo to deposit on this chicas bank card so she can buy her flights to and from Tijuana from Nayarit where she currently lives. Going to be one of the better birthday presents I've ever gotten myself....flying a girl up from down south in Mexico to stay with me for the week . Never done something like this before, so should be interesting to see how it goes!

She's not the hottest girl by any means, but has a nice body and is super chill...way more normal than most of the girls. Definitely way better to have a more average looking chica but that you're going to have a super great time with for a long trip like this .







She herself has never done anything like this so I was asking besides paying for her flights, how much money she wanted (or basically hinting at that we needed to figure out the money situation before I deposit on her card for her to book the flights). Got a great response and made me feel even more sure of myself....'I need like 2500 pesos so my kids have money for food and for ubers to go to school and things like this, and otherwise just give me whatever you want.' 2500 pesos is like $130 USD.

I ended up saying something like 'well if everything goes well, I'll happily give you like 20,000-30,000 pesos because you're going to be with me for so long.' And got the reply of '20,000 is more than enough for me...I'm just excited to get to come back to the area for a week!' Gotta love a girl that just takes the bottom of a fairly open ended range.

In comparison, not that I usually pay it, but most girls that work at HK club want 10,000 pesos for just like an 8 hour overnight. And obviously we don't even need to get into the prices this would cost in the first world...even pretty meh looking escorts in So-Cal are charging $200+/hour lulz.

So yea, exciting stuff . Hopefully there's no issue booking her ticket today. We already searched and round trip her arriving on Monday morning and leaving Saturday was only like $255...not bad at all.

Gonna go shower and head out before hitting the tables, GLA on the grind today

I need to move to Mexico

i have spent a lot of time in nayarit and plenty of that with local women in the same way. The price for panocha is an order of magnitude cheaper then stateside, and usually more enjoyable ime.....have fun!

sounds like you already have your tires picked out....

How much does the avg person make per year in pesos in mexico? Google said like 160k pesos, is that accurate?

Yessss

Oh wow, have you been to Oaxaca/Puebla as well? Never realized you traveled Mexico. And yea, Latina chicks are so much better in almost every regard in my mind

Yea that sounds about right, that's a shade under $10k USD. The new president AMLO is actually for the people and minimum wage got raised and he's working on some other progressive/good changes, so it'll be interesting to see what all happens over time.

But yea, most people are poor as **** here. It's why I don't blame any of the girls for working in the strip clubs/being a working girl/etc. This chick I'm flying up makes $150 USD a week working a like 40-50 hour per week office job. She has actually lost her job/got fired as of today due to the fact that they told her she couldn't have off for vacation time. Made way more sense to come up north with me where she's getting her expenses back home paid for the week + leaving here with like $1000 cash from me (20k pesos). She said she'll just find another office job when she returns

Always swipe left when their pictures are taken in a parking garage.

Ohh you're paying anyway, fair.

Is that not okay?

It's a joke that if they were on tinder they are a prostitute hence all their pictures being taken in a public area that is no effort to film in.

If I'm being honest though I'm a prude I do find it odd. I don't have any issue with it, it's a good transaction for both of you (fingers crossed anyway). I'm a big fan of earnesty though and have some level of self-perspective and for my many positives (*)I'm an ugly bastard.

(*) see earnesty.

Ah got you haha, I didn't read into the joke...my apologies

And yea, I just do whatever makes me happy in the moment. It's how I live every day of my life. The english teacher/ballerina might not have been getting money directly handed to her, but still spent a good amount on/with her and she ended up being a huge net negative and I refuse to have that in my life.

It just wasn't a funny joke but thanks for the haha.

And ye I 100% agree.

Your life your decisions learn from them and that's why I have loved your threads over the years. You have made loads of mistakes and you learn from them at a level most people don't come close to and even if you make changes and they are bad you go from that new point. Once again me being a sucker for being earnest.
