Nah Jared's play was fine I think. The guy who made the flush called when there was an UTG raise and 3-bet in front of him, lol. Oh well.

No worries Jared. 100% sure you make it through. I will prop bet that for any amount at 1-1 for any haters ITT.

Get em next week bro!

Lemme quote spacegravy from other thread

"What's up Jared!
I just read through this thread and am truly amazed to see the poker community reach out like this. If you ever want free coaching on how to grind sng's I would be more than happy to fly you out to my condo in Miami to teach you or just do it online. Gl to you man!"

Jared, do not and i mean do not pass this awesome opportunity up,

wow JFC, yeah J seriously dont miss out here!

people are awesome

Dont miss that insane oportunity Space Gravy is nuts :P
Very nice from him

Thank you! Didn't post on here the last couple of days, was editing a new video!

Gl man hope to see you ship a rd3 and get some rungood back in your life

Thank you bro!

Tommorrow at 12:30PM is the next Round 2. I'm not sure what tournament etiquette is, but if anyone is interested in sweating me, please send me a PM, thanks!

is the new video ready?

and what are the PM's for?

GL jared hope you make it

cant believe i saw the HU vs drooler thread a million times over the last 8 months and never read it till today, spent 2 hours reading the whole thing, it would be so great if you could make this happen

gl in the qualifiers, you are a lock to make it through the audition rounds if u get there, and if its in question im sure 2p2 will spam pokerstars until they come to their senses

The new video is done, and will online any day now. I hope that you're going to like it

u ready to take over the world now jared or wut

Looks like he's coming out here in a couple days! Excited to meet this guy and help him with the qualifiers on Pokerstars and teach him how to grind sng's. Can't wait to get started.

Trying to do what God has planned for me. It would be sweet if at the end of all this, I was standing on TV at the homeless shelter with a fat check. Or if I found the next guy in the gutter, and put the spotlight on him.

Huge props to you sir.

hey good luck jared but i dont mean to burst bubbles but i dont think stars would choose you for the big game and here is why

you blew your life roll playing poker, you think stars want that kinda gambler on tv its not good for marketing and it certainly doesnt help the skill vs luck argument.

You come across as a degen and they don't want that linked to poker, so give up the free rolls and do soething else.

again i am not dissing you i have read your story seems you had a hard life but i beg you not to put all your eggs in one basket

keep on trucking 8-)

He lost a hundred dollars. Poker did not ruin his life. He lost his "life roll" due to family and alcohol, not poker. Poker, 2+2, and his faith is what has helped pick him back up.

Also the hundred bucks was a referral bonus and he was blocked from withdrawing it. Jared even returned money given to him as a stake because it was too big of a commitment. Does that sound like a degenerate?

.

jay b, you are really dumb. please get banned again

Are you stupid or something ?

Its pretty obvious that Jared needed to pull back money to support himself, the last 100 he lost couldnt been withdrawn. Poker isnt wat ruined its life, poker (or better: 2+2 and the poker community) is what helped him get back on track (although its HIS achievement, not ours, Jared is a great guy). Pokerstars could present themselves as a pokersite that doesnt take people's moniez ("its rigged!" "sick rake yoh") but a site that gives people oppertunities to improve their lives. Sick marketing oppertunity imo.

OT: Any chance we can get a life update Jared ? Or have i been overlooking it.

"There is a principle which is a bar against all information, which is proof against all arguments, and which cannot fail to keep a man in everlasting ignorance—that principle is contempt prior to investigation." — Herbert Spence

He's up money playing online poker. How has poker ruined his life?

is there an adress we can email stars and demand that jared getson the big game?

I didn't lose my bankroll, I only lost one buy-in. One hand of poker. That's why roll is in quotes like this "roll". Also, it was money from a rakeback referral. I had made one withdrawal already, so I had to wait before making another one, the withdrawal was blocked. I've never even deposited a penny on that site

Poker has had a huge positive impact on my life! It's shocking actually.

Poker helped me overcome lifelong panic attacks, one of my main goals from the beginning. All my poker names reflect that (relaxedprecision, inhale slow, -relaxation-, relaxation). After college, I'd torn my medial and lateral meniscus, and couldn't walk. Surgery didn't heal right. Poker paid my bills while going to over 4 months of full time knee physical therapy.

The poker community...the impact they have had on my life, Oh My God ! It's been one of the greatest things that's ever happened in my life, no question. My cousin who I love very much, is ill with a serious disease. Three days ago someone from this thread, who lives in another country, sent her a very nice assortment of baked goods! That was so beautiful. Thank you for that!
