Do you not have a friend who owns a business/can you not lie? Ive done this >5 times with estate agents and not once has any of them checked up to see if I am actually employed. Telling them you play poker seems like a huge hassle.

Tell them u sw freelancer or fx trader. Both go way easier in rgds to that

If you pay rent up front theres no reason why an agent/landlord should care unless they have a personal issue with it or you personally. Getting a place with a gf who is employed will make a positive difference also. Sometimes they request references from employers so I think if you have the money to pay up front you should always be honest.

You can pay upfront but still not mention poker. Depending on country teh mentioning of poker will rule out 10-20% of places from teh getgo.
I wouldve never signed my current place in vienna if i wouldve mentioned poker in any way

Yeah simon summed it up well. We've lived in London for 6 years and this has always been the way of getting houses. We've never actually been declined because of our jobs, they just always ask the routine questions.

Got another couple viewings booked for tomorrow. Today was a really stressful day, both with client work and at the tables. I was stuck $4500 in my 2nd session and managed to make 2k back to lost a chilled $1500 for the day. My wwsf and w@sd were insaaaanely low 2nd session which means i was running horrendous.



2nd session



Reg helping me win some back:



Same reg...



I guess this is prob a blow up:



vs weak reg. The same guy that bluffed AdQ the other day:



fml vs xxscouxxtxx



Today made me realise how hard it could be to work as a therapist and a poker player with regards to my mind being else where. I think it's something to keep an eye on for sure. Month still looking strong even after today.

Play lower steaks then. W$sf indicates u too much of a pussy for anything above 200 anyways. If you cant stand teh heat you should get out of teh kitchen IMO

paha shut up you

Had an awesome day on and off the tables. Played 4 hours of snooker but lost 10 frames to 8. wp sniper_arnie, well and truly deserved this week. Made one of my best clearances which i've linked below! Hoping to get a lot of clips of both us making sick pots and clear ups but this is all i got so far! Started to get crushed at the end so quit before more damage could happen.



Had a whale at 1k where i 4b called KQo and lost vs his 88

The hand converter on 2p2 seems to be busto so i can't post any pots. I'll leave you with the snooker vid



glgl

Always amazes me he polite you english are. If thatd be me and blakkman playing we were swearing at each other for teh entire match...

hahaha 100% thought the same

gg ben

Nice clearance and beast day at the tables again. Month must be shaping up nicely?

Why so much action on the blue? Just screw back a bit and take the pink in the bottom left is surely easier haha.

guru

that video makes me think you would be an extremely boring person to hang around with

who speaks to their friends like that

Nice clearance

Does the table run slow ? if not, try and not hit the cue ball so hard

If teh table's to slow he can add additional tables imo!

hahaha, it's not actually what i'm normally like but playing the person i was playing it hasn't got to the point where it's extremely competitive yet. Fwiw, i'm horribly competitive and get reaaaaally tilted/shouty when playing

thanks man, yeah my month is looking good. results will be put up in a few days The blue was a kinda awkward position cus i was cutting into a slightly blind pocket. Playing into bottom left makes sense though, you're right, i just always try a little too much



hahaha, point taken. As i said above, this isn't normal behaviour for me in competitive games - you should hear me playing football with friends, constantly blowing up

ty! yeah the table is sooo slow so to get any kind of decent action you gotta hit it hard. Gotta learn a bit more finesse for sure though

lolol

Confirm Ben is massive shoutmonkey in anything that can be won

9 or 5!

or when he scooped 6way in runitthrice

Camera angle makes the table look small me thinks. Full size right?

Nice pot on the pink

Not a full size .. looks like a 7x4ft table

Not sure why you went off 2 cushions on the green, natural angle to just screw it back a touch and have a nice angle on the brown to leave a slight cut on the blue to bring it up for the pink.

But that would look boring, so keep potting your way out of trouble looks better.

he said 3/4 size which would be 9' x 4.5' IMO. regulation snooker table is 12' x 6' IIRC but I was a 9 ball junkie.

"yeah, you can't argue his talent, but i just hate him as an individual(Ronnie). Got very little class and i don't rate that. My favourite player is judd, he's just a total beast too. Him and robertson are the ones to watch for the future for sure."

Judd will win 5+ world chamiponships if he can sort his mental game. His ball potting talent is second to none but when he gets deep in a tournament he folds a lot.Something which he also often does is play a below par performance after an absolute belter Watching his post match interviews is very telling imo. Big mental game fish

thread has gone full british

but it's impossible right?

As fozzy said, it's 9 x 4.5. ty!

i dunno man, i'm a fish still. It takes so long to know which shots to play. There's still so much guessing in my game... hahaha, exactly, gotta make it look as difficult as possible

9 ball

Yeah i think you're right here. His ability certainly isn't the issue, it's something mental. I would guess if he sorts that out he'll be smashing up the circuit in no time.

so much this!

Got kinda shafted today and didn't feel i played well at all. Some of that winners tilt again. Bluffed off a stack at 1k on a euro site too which wasn't fun.

Most of my losses came from the other site today and the hand converter doesn't work for them for some reason. Comes up in my hem fine but just not here. Does anyone know how to fix that?

Dented my month a bit today but got a few more sessions before the end of the month to finish strong!

The 2p2 converter, cardrunners converter and HM2 hand history viewer export as format options are all down right now. The devs are trying to figure out what broke it so they can get it fixed.

ah alright. thanks for letting me know. it's mainly cus of the £ tables i think, but when i copy text it's some crazy weird format
