I take it you don't play poker for a living. There are not people in this world who "never lose," and I'm no different. This is borderline insulting to be honest. I've been playing poker since I was 15, and I can assure you I've lost over 5 figures before I even knew what I was doing, and I worked very hard to get where I'm at. I've broke computers after 10 hour losing sessions, I get 1,2,3 outed like everyone else and I'm absolutely not on a "god like heater," far from it, actually, but I have become immune to complaining about in here. I put in hours a week watching study material, reading, tuning my life towards being the best player I can be.
The posts that I detail are usually a compilation of my week, as opposed to just every session I play, and sure, I like to describe my favorite hands more so, but there's ALOT more behind the scenes. I've had -5k weeks since starting this thread, and I was grinding 1/3 a year ago, but I choose to post session details as opposed to a exact "run up" of my roll/ exact winnings, losses, hourly, etc. Nonetheless, thanks for reading. I'll be sure to start posting some losing hands more, in extreme detail. The type that will make you cling to your bi-weekly pay check with glee. This thread's gonna be a little less sunshine and tits and a little more gloomy.

But after reading your reply, I understand more clearly what your purpose for this thread is. The PGC threads I normally encounter are bankroll challenges that include HH's, profit/loss updates, strategy questions, graphs, etc, so that's what I've come to expect in a PGC. Whereas it sounds like you've made one as more of an outlet to experiment with your passion for story-writing. It's a good thing! So it makes sense why you wouldn't include such details in your thread because it'd probably make the reading experience a little dry. I didn't mean to assume you never lost money, but given the fact that you neglected to include that kind of information in your thread, it lead me to believe that you just never lost.
I actually have a bit in common with you. I am playing poker for a living too (although I've only pursued this path for 9 months and am still fairly new to the game). I also have my own PGC thread, although it's no where near as entertaining as yours.
I wish the best of luck to both of us! And anyone else who's trying to make it. Happily subscribed. Keep on writing!

I agree that overcoming obstacles builds character. I am sure that OP has lost some money playing poker and I would imagine that he has encountered problems in other areas of life (I mean we all have, right?)
That being said, I love this guy's confidence and outlook on life. Reading this thread is definitely a boost in motivation for me.
If he was all of a sudden all sad sack one day, I would wonder what the hell happened to OP!

hmm, I had no intention of being a troll, or a hater. I'm actually supporting your progress. Sorry if I came off sounding discouraging.
