Ugh

weight loss is all about calories. go and eat 1800 calories a day if you weigh 200lbs and are 5 foot 8 and you will lose weight. shakes are just a expensive food.

the goal is to win the Sunday Marathon. but I had Sunday off for once, so I decided to try my luck. BUT i didn't even play the Sunday Storm as I slept in lol

OK I will write up more goals in here

Let me think about that first....

yeah i know lol. I slept in and when I woke up 90 mins late I couldn't be bothered getting outta bed. I probably won't be able to play the Sunday Storm again anyways, because that is Monday morning my time, and I will probably have a full time job soon anyways

yes that's my website. I don't do internet marketing, I door knock households and if they are interested in getting healthy, we exchange numbers and I give them my business card with my website address on!

#WillNotDoVideoPokerEverAgain

OK so you guys want to hear about my other goals....

a) Get a full time job
b) Get my car back on the road and get my full drivers license
c) Move house
d) Start my Herbalife business
e) Become Poker Pro

I know I won't be able to do e) without playing. I think I will do 8 game mix on PokerStars and to make $55 a week profit at 8 game and use that profit to play the $55 Daily Marathon on my 2nd day off from work. But only after I have got a job, which will hopefully happen in the next few weeks, because my CV and cover letter is pretty good.

#LetsKeepDoingThis

your strategy is not going to work in most cases.

your better off saving money from your job and going and playing 1/3 at your local casino, home game or card room.

skycity Auckland is your best option. drive up or catch the bus on the weekends.

don't go and play video poker if they offer it.

i don't care if you dont believe in me. i make my own decisions. i am a leader, NOT a follower.

not interested in LIVE poker or video poker for that matter.

I am going to WIN the $55 Daily Marathon by the end of the year

#LetsDoThis

Just started a new job, so i'm well on my way to achieving financial independence.

Although my goal with poker is to make $55 per week profit in the 8 game mix and use that money to play the $55 Daily Marathon that I came 76th in 4 months ago. (I was the chip leader at one point too, but my ego, cockyness and loss of concentration got the better of me).

Feel free to critique my sales pitch here for my job:

Hey there, my name is Richard. How are you doing today?

I am once again helping organise the annual _____ event for _____ from _____ which is happening on _____ at _____

It is a charity under the charity commissions act.

We would greatly appreciate your support here and I am sure the children would too!

I have been allocated 6 kids to look after.

How many children can you support here?

Great! Would you like to pay via credit card?
I will send you the information with the invoice.

Looking forward to all of your feedback

#LetsDoThis

are you 1 of the 6 children, Richard?

not at all, i've got 2 younger brothers.

Decided I am going to play 8 game mix, 20c/40c cash games, starting today.

I'll play 2 hour sessions followed by an hour editing my streamed videos and posting them on you tube, twitter and the various poker forums I partake in. Unfortunately, I cannot upload videos to my twitch channel until I am an affiliate there. After the vids are posted, i'll have an hour break.

I just started a new job, ringing up businesses asking for donations for charity. The charity is for special needs kids and I know how they are like and how their life is, because I have a brother with special needs. I only made $20 this week. I'll be working 32 hours a week and I only get paid on commission. If I can manage to make $80 a week, I will use $55 of that to buy into the Daily Marathon on Sunday morning NZT to try and win it. After all, my main goal is to win that tournament by the end of 2019! And I know I can win it because I came in 76th place in the Sunday Marathon 4 months ago after being the chip leader at one stage. That was my biggest cash ever.

#LetsKeepDoingThis

Why specifically the $55 daily marathon?

Because it has a very good blind structure. 15 min blinds for the first 4 hours, then 20 min blinds after that.

not playing poker until next Saturday NZT

i got this message at the table i wanted to join today:

"too many seating attempts at this table".

if you try to join and cancel an attempt of joining a table TWICE within a 20 hour period, you will get that error message.

#LetsNotDoThis

Richard,
not sure you realized (probably make an excel sheet next time) but your target amount is to make 2.5$/hour with your job in a country you can rent a small apartment for 1000$ a month. (if internet knows it right.)

there are minimal wage jobs is NZ for 30k $ a year, with 80$ a week you're nowhere close to that amount, why not apply for some of that until you figure out what you want to do with your life and the Sunday Marathon?

Seriously does this guy have family or professionals watching over him? If not, he should really for his own sake.

I get an unemployment benefit. ie. $300 a week for not working. We are lucky in NZ to have that.

But why don't you find a job that is not commission only. If you are going to work 30 hours a week or so it would be better to earn more money then 20 bucks right.

I live at home with my family at 38 years of age, so I have alot of people looking after me. It's nice and cheap to live at home... however if I can win the Daily Marathon 2-3 times, I will hopefully have a 10K poker balance and then start playing the Sunday Million every week risking only 1% of my bankroll.

Also my goal is to move outta home by the end of the year. I'm going to be greedy and aim to win the Daily Marathon 2-3 times by the end of the year with the 18 opportunities that I will have to play it from now until the end of the year!

I've applied for 9 jobs over the last month and had 2 good responses. 1 for which I failed their 90 min test, otherwise I would of had an interview. And the other is the commission based job.

So I earn $300 a week off a benefit plus whatever I make off the commission based job. Am going to use that commission based job money to buy me into the Daily Marathon in the weekends.

Here is my schedule:

Please note: only 3 months is viewable in this photo. My aim is to make $750 at the 8 game mix on PokerStars and then move up limits to 50c/$1 after about 10 months when I have 30 buy ins in hand.

#LetsDoThis

By the way guys, the Sunday NZT $55 Daily Marathon this week only attracted 500 people. That is good odds to win it 2-3 times by the end of 2019, playing it only 18 times

#LetsDoThis

you're so far from reality you don't even know what day is it today. the sunday marathon will start in 3 hours.

and an 500 people field means with your pace you will win it once every 30 years.

Lol what a troll.
