yeah iv hear what you're saying lux. Unfortunately living in such an expensive part of the world, money is a pretty vital part to maintaining my lifestyle.

Poker does make me happy though fwiw, i love the game, but yeah it's not something that'll solely fullfill me long term

thanks a lot boss! haha yeah, if it's a matter of months then get grinding! I know what you mean though, the stress for a lot of people is really unappealing, even for a potential salary increase.

            Down several k still this month. Playing and feeling good.

            The plan for the week is to grind tomorrow, tuesday clients, wednesday uni and then GUKPT £2100 event on thursday, which btw if you're playing, hit me up. Then grind through the weekend. I'm thinking bout taking most of the following week to write up 3 essays. I wanna try free up most of december so i can grind hard when the games get juicy.

            Kq or weaker bdfd like xxhh too I guess vil blocks ah tho

            Honestly don't think it's that crazy (still crazy). Obviously overall but obviously he thought Bena over bluffing with his line.

            Literally would break keyboard if I had Kq here tho
