Could I just get paid by the post instead of actually having to play? Could be a flat rate, but maybe a rate based on how good/helpful the post is would be better.... ?

I think I would want to have a floor on my price of no less than $0.00 per post regardless of the content.

I'm tired of that. I'm tired of reading. I'm tired of briefing. I'll get to it. And actually I probably should have typed up the corrections on that memo and seen if it fit the space requirements and dealt with that, but whatever. Yes though, I am a bit drunk, just a bit ... the first I've like actually been like close to really drunk in months though.


BTW I didn't know you looked at/posted in this forum. I don't think I've ever seen you here before. Feel like I used to see you a lot in unl. What gives? Do you come around this forum?

Not busto. lol. Relax. I'm very near 100% sure I will never go busto in my life (at least not from poker).

I am however on the worst run of my life and am drunk so that's likely where it's coming from. (Of course if someone wants to accept it I'll still be happy to do that .) But no yea, so many times I thought I was about to pull out of this strecth only to lose a bunch the next time I sat down to play. Just like this past time when I thought I was just about to pull out and put it behind me and then lost $800 in each of my last 2 sessions.

Actually I did at the begnnining of the year have a staking/coaching arrangement with Pat Southern. It was actually not too much coaching, but he gave me a better than normal deal on the staking and the coaching I had was pretty good. I also did 1 session with Terp which I felt helped me think about a couple situations a bit differently. And actually I have recently just started started getting some coaching. I contacted the guy a couple of weeks ago but had to wait a little for some availability. Anyway, it's 0evg0. He has come highly recommended by some pretty good people including Fees. And the first session seems pretty good ... I'm definitely going to review it again before the second session and try to soak it up the best I can.


So far I'd recommend any of those guys if any of you ever get a chance for some staking or coaching from any of them. Pat and 0evg0 just do it on their own. Terp's available through a site ... I think Deuces Cracked .... but you can just PM him here and he'll give you the details I'm sure. I wouldn't worry about it yet though ... especially as they're charging what's probably more than 3 or maybe 4 BI's for a lot of people in this forum. But I guess keep it in mind for later.







Anyway sorry for bitching. I don't much. I'm in most cases not even that forgiving of it .... I usually suggest a bunch of things to do instead of it. But blah ... anyway ... yea, sorry. The thread was supposed to be a joke. It was kinda funny to me at the time. I guess it kinda seems like bitching now ..... so I'm sorry about that.

WTF does downing some woodstocks mean?



There should be a monthly LC thread in here like there is in all the strategy forums.





Let's try to come up with a good name for one for this forum. Like in microstakes Nl they call it microbrew .... in small stakes NL it's The Cheese Thread.

Your assist to vent ratio is still pretty awesome.

Remember, drink plenty of water if you have a hangover.

Thanks man. Appreciate it.



Can you answer the question in my above post though:

What does ''drowning a woodstock mean"? From context I guess something to do with beer or liquor. Never heard that term before though.




And how about a good name for an LC thread for this forum. I'm pretty sure the mods will let us have one if people want it .... and I'm pretty sure if it gets started it'll catch on ... it seems to do so in other forums and I think there's enough regular posters in this forum for it.

lol, For some reason this actually made me smile and seriously chuckle out loud. Not sure it actually seriously was a laugh out loud but it was at least a chuckle. And I don't even know what assist to vent ratio means. But somehow the post seemed humorous and amusing.

Oh, thanks. Coke generally goes quite well with whiskey IMO. One of my favorite mixed drinks actually: Jack and Coke (or any whiskey and Coke, actually tastes quite similar). Though for the night availability did force me a good bit away from that.... and actually away from any drink I'd ever had before.

Yeah, I meant that. You post a lot on beginners forums or unl and seem to be pretty good at getting your points across. I think you'd probably make a good coach for someone just starting out with the game.

The busto comment was supposed to be joke, wouldn't have made it if I knew about the downswing. I feel stupid now...
Downswings suck but it's part of the game, right? Take the weekend off, come back next week and crush everyone (except me, we're playing the same games, I think)

Anyway, I'm getting coaching from Eric too, first session is next week.

Yea I've coached a little bit before. Probably wouldn't mind doing it a bit right now for 1 or 2 people at like $70 per hour or $100 per 1.5 hours. Don't really feel I can do it for too much less than that though as I have made a decent bit more than that at just 100NL for a while now .... not sure if anybody would be interested. Maybe I could go $60ish per hour if someone purchased a number of hours up front.



Anyway don't worry about the busto joke. It didn't bother me. And good luck with Eric. I've only had the one session with him so far but he seems like a good coach (hopefully after a few more sessions I'll still be saying I think that) ... and I like his 1.5 hour sessions instead of the standard 1 hour session.

Oh ..... well I guess though people could make an issue over quality of post though so maybe it could be arguable. Perhaps the nominator needs to be better defined.


But thank-you.



Holy **** .... I am way too much of lawyer already. Do somethin ..........

Anyway again sorry about the gratuitous posting. I don't usually do it. I dunno, sorry......anyway I'm going to bed:


So ok: Someone come up with the name we're gonna have for the Low Content thread for this forum from now on. There have been a couple of decent names so far.




Later, guys, I'm going to bed. Good Night.
