I think Im going to be moving to NH in March, most important consideration being proximity to Boston. Any recommendations? Should I just get a place in Nashua?

volume and the ability to move down, for sure, most get totally stuck on playing a certain limit and refuse to move down during bad streaks, and alot of times end up stakes, etc., seriously cutting into their bottom line IMO

meh, I MUCH prefer the seacoast to nashua, but tbh I have never spent that much time in Nashua, I just really enjoyed living in the Dover / Portsmouth / Rye / Hampton area

tits or ass?
megan fox or hayden penetierre or elisha cuthbert?

Who would be your short list now to write the treatise on HU sng?

Do you think you would have found the same success if you had never of come across poker?.

How would you rate other full time jobs against playing poker professionally. Do you think being a long time winner at poker is harder since you have to constantly adapt and play consistently well and at full concentration or would you pick it over any full time job?

Mer's Pink Book.

husng.com coaches could write a book though.

the same success... I dunno, eventually for sure, but certainly not at as young of an age.

I would rate poker as way better than a full time job for anybody young / single / without financial commitments. Once you get more tied down (house,family,wife,whatever) it becomes alot less alluring in a bunch of different ways (ridiculous hours, travel a lot, stress, lack of stability, etc., etc.)

I think it is tough to be a winner at poker long term, but like... the ones who were winners before have a big leg-up on the new/young guys, but the new guys usually have the fire/passion that the older ones have lost a bit, so they improve faster than they do.


Yea, depends on the coaches I guess, if I could pick some people to write a book right now it'd prolly be:

Skates
Heybude
Mers

additional authors possibly:


ShortSharpShock
Hokie
R-Q
H2olga

Would you ever look towards any other kind of employment yourself?. I guess you could be having kids yourself in the next few years.

I actually founded/run a couple of start ups now, so that is something I plan on transitioning in to a larger role in in the future. I still love poker, and plan on doing it for a while more, but i've really enjoyed branching out and becoming successful at some other things, and it's something I want to dedicate a lot more time to in the future. And hopefully having kids ASAP

please god no

I have a question!!! Why do you always say "alright hey guys"?

hahahaha. i always imitate that. <3 you primo!

Hey Primor what are the benefits of being lock pro?

I wanted them like 2-3 yrs ago! this has been a big compromise for me ;p

rofl I dunno, I never intended to like... make it in every video, just seemed to become normal of how I address everyone at the start of a vid :-p. It got a little famous I guess, cause H2olga told me him and his roomate had all these crazy stories and other things all based on this saying, it was ridic ;p.

Can't discuss any contract specific stuff, but I was more than happy with it when they offered it to me originally, and have been nothing but satisfied the whole way through, been a really great experience, esp. coming off my horrible sponsorship experience a few years back .

Do you ever tilt at this stage in your poker career?.

Do you have any ways of noticing when you are not playing your best and if so do you take a break or just concentrate more and keep playing?.

I think I was tilting hard today after some bad beats.. I was quite calm and only abit annoyed and I didn't think it was affecting my concentration or play. But ended up losing like 14 husngs in a row........ new record?. Coming from like a 70% winrate all morning to this was pretty insane.
Do you think I was on a subtle tilt from being annoyed or was it just bad luck. I usually associate tilt with getting mad and playing crazy but this didn't feel like that so I'm kind of confused.

I think there are a few important factors here (yes I still tilt even now =/ ). I used to be exactly like that, I would put in 8-12 hour sessions, and be like i'm not that mad, i'm playing exactly how I always would, etc., etc., and be totally convinced I was playing my A-Game, and literally EVERY time i've ever reviewed one of these sessions I go back and on a ton of hands am just like... 'wtf was I thinking there, why did i do that'? over and over again, to the point where now I can tell even if i'm on subtle tilt and think im playing well, I try to take a break. Eat / walk my dogs / etc., and get back to it in 30 min to an hour. I think taking breaks and being honest with yourself is really important, so i'd suggest reviewing those 14 games you lost (obv incredibly small sample and losing 14 in a row will def. happen), and just make sure you were actually playing as well as you think you were

Yeah that's what I was so confused about.. thought I was still playing the same. Going to look back over the hands before tomorrows session and try not to let this happen again.
+1 week before I can move up stakes now.. so mad at myself :P.
Thanks for the reply's mate, they are really really helpful .

primo, youre way too young to have kids!

yeah id gamble them and enjoy life

why do you want kids? :O

why wouldn't I want them? spent the last 5-6 years living abroad, traveling, etc., it's not like I go party that much anymore or can travel around and hook up w/random chicks, i'm married, we have a house, etc., it seems like the reasonable next step to not be bored out of my mind (since i'm SUPER sick of traveling), not to mention that I love kids , and also don't want to be like 50-60 when my kids are turning 20

Oh ok, fair enough.

But who do you want to have kids with?

because you are likely not mature enough to have them. Just based on your age/job .

Not an insult.

Too many people have kids way too young. Also, your reasoning for having kids is very selfish; because you are bored, and because you dont want to be old when youre kids are 20 are not good reasons to have kids.

Those don't sound like his reasons. He got married young, got a house young, and is looking for kids young, seems pretty clear that he's just really excited to have a family and isn't as attracted to the mid-20s dilly-dallying that a lot of people are. And I kind of feel him on it (while still feeling committed to ****ing around myself), starting a family is going to be awesome. It's bad when you have kids because "I guess it's what's next now that we're married", it's great when it's because you've consistently known in your gut it's what you want. And plus, we have a mers clones vs. primo kids HUSNG prop bet scheduled for 2028.
