i like the oot forum to post in just to keep me in check, for this reason. it's pretty helpful.

i was always gonna call/text her to hang out monday, but there are nuances about when you do that, how directly, etc. unfortunately, it's still a game. even those of us who are like "nah it's not im just gonna be me", you still gotta do it the smartest way possible.

My GTA V addiction is starting to wear off a little bit, time for some poker again

!

Which leads me to a nerdy question:

Seems like there should be a serious correlation between people that want to play GTA V and people that play on Pokerstars (obviously I am talking about psychopaths/sociopaths

), so I am curious wether this was noticable for you guys?

Are tits allowed these days in spoilers or something? I'll post more if yes.

Sure! it's all about how you do it. The calling/texting is usually frowned upon because people tend to do it in a needy way which is the offputting part. Saying that you want to have a chance to see her before she leaves because you are so into her is not the same as making a fun plan for that night and inviting her to come along in a witty way. She seems to like you based on your TR so I don't see why she wouldn't go for it.

I don't know the answer to your question: sounds like a good question to ask of PokerScout/PokerFuse for their regular Traffic Watch articles...

Went to a flea market this last Sunday and managed to find 3 poker books in the wild. 2 being from Doyle and 1 from Collin for €2 for all 3. I picked them up with the intent of reselling them but perhaps one from Doyle might be a fun read. What do you guys think about Doyle's super system other than out dated. Should I read it before selling?

Good tip, I'll look around

While I know it sounds ridiculous, I read articles saying how there was a spike in people calling in sick for work, which at least in my head seems more far-fetched than online gaming taking a hit (article might have been BS, probably was, but w/e

). Obv it is going to be hard to prove that there is a causal relation between the two, but that doesn't mean that the geek in me isn't curious.

On release week traffic fell with 2% while traffic was on the rise the 4 weeks before that (with an avg of like +1,5%).

Too small to call it a relevant impact obv, was expecting more.
Though I'm sure traffic is generally expected to rise consistently once the summer is over until mid december.

I know when I'm being poked with a stick!

So numbers are:

7 day moving average of cash game players for US facing sites excl Nevada.

16 Sep: 2840
Falling to 2730 on 23rd Sep and recovering to 2844 a week later on Oct 3.

Don't think a regression analysis will work, and correlation isn't causation, but there was a dip

That camera jockey is in the same spot where Aaron got his ass runned over by some NBA superstar during a game. Could very well be Noodleman. He also does "stand up" comedy, although this clip would suggest he's not too good at that standing up thing. Assuming, of course, that the dude tripping out is Noodle.
