GL on the tables
Yeah, dealing with some medical stuff atm but hope to be streaming more as well. Also as usual been a bit lazier than I should be
I'm not much of a clubber but yea Zoe is definitely still running.
I've stayed at 4 or 5 places in Hanoi and the net was kinda ****ty and inconsistent at all of them, so I would def recommend getting a sim and using 4g which tends to be pretty alright. It's like $1/gig or even cheaper for mobile data there so unless you're trying to watch hd vids or download big files you'll be alright. Otherwise, be very careful when booking a place. I think HCMC is in general better, but have only been there for a couple weeks so don't really know.
Bali I've heard mixed things about, people say Ubud has good net but I stayed in the Seminyak area and again things were a bit spotty. Where I was staying first was actually a dead zone for my Axiata (?) sim too but Telkomsel was solid. I think with a lot of these places it's luck of the draw, but look for listings that advertise some sort of fios line imo. The villa I stayed at in Seminyak was actually amazing except for the wifi being somewhat spotty, would definitely recommend the area down near Double Six Beach/Potato Head etc etc.

Poker aside, I'm doing the couch to 5K thing right now...which is kinda amusing as my marathon personal best (from 1984) is 3 hours 8 minutes.
Glad you've picked up some stuff from my posts over the years
Husngs these days are a pretty solver-oriented game and ranges are super wide and strange compared to most non-hu variants, so no worries being a bit lost! I enjoy it a lot these days but it did take me a while to pick everything up when I came back to playing poker more seriously.
GL getting back into 5k form!

Don't know if you are teched up, but I have fitbit, myfitnesspal and a smart body scale, all synched, so it's pretty hard to delude myself. I spend half my life in the gym...all in the quest of denying nature, who made me to be a fat ****
I have a PT as well, twice a week.
I can pass a few hours in the gym on the bike or treadmill playing sngs on my IPAD...not entirely unprofessional either as I come down to $3.50 and play hudless, so its kinda training...and fun.
anyways, good luck in all you do, I'll follow.

Not really teched up much, my phone has a pedometer if that counts
But unfortunately been dealing with some medical stuff + on some meds that really kill my energy the past week or so, so haven't hit the gym lately. Really need to get back to it soon. Thanks for the gl wishes!

Been a while since I've updated! Not that much to report -- this month has been kind of disappointing so far, but not a disaster so can't complain too much:
Unfortunately about 250 of these are reg games at 60s and they've been a bit of a bummer, but I've reviewed a good number of them and it seems like I'm playing alright overall. Fish game roi also a bit rough this month so far (~3.5%), but we'll see how things go for the next week and a half and try to finish the month off strong. Want to up the pace a bit and make sure to get 1500 games this month.
I have picked up a couple more students for some private coaching lately and so far everyone seems pretty happy, so definitely hope to move more into that and fire off some more streams while I can! Definitely toss the twitch a follow (
https://www.twitch.tv/gloves222) if you're interested, because I guarantee I'll stream at least a couple times a week going forward, probably just husng fish games but maybe some spins in the mix too.
Short update but not too much else to report, don't want to ***** too much about random medical stuff but that has my energy pretty low so hopefully can truck through the last week of treatment here (+ hopefully it's effective) and pick things up again soon.
GL at the tables guys!
