I like London and the people I've met here. I've grown a lot as a person and went from busto to nosebleeds in less than a year ; I owe most of this to the support system I have here. I don't want to leave.

WTF am I doing in Australia... I'm coming to London! :P

London is a grinders heaven if you can keep up with living costs.

Mind elaborating?

Speaking of European grindhouse cities, I've heard Budapest provides a great environment too and is way more affordable. I wish Hungarian was not so difficult to me (fortunately for Finns, they have an advantage at understanding it). I'd have to go to somewhere like Ljubljana, Zagreb or Belgrade to just understand the language. I know no Serbian PLO pros, though

I know a few grinders who shacked up in Budapest. They could only speak wonders of the city...


... And the women. My god.

pics of said budapest women plz

I have seen one or two things in my life, but never, never anything like this. And never such women.

Your wish, is my command!

1) Enikõ Mihalik


2) Barbara Palvin


3) Elsa Pataky


4) Miss Hungary 2011



And my personal favourite...

Annamaria Rakosi

Meh. I've remained neutral after look under all the spoilers, even the 4th one (that one at least has big breasts and is understandably attractive to most white men; the other are just flat).

I am living in Budapest for 10 years and its a very good place.
Regarding girls I think the most important thing is if you go out somewhere the "avarage" girls are like 7/10 or 8/10.
I have experienced this kind of pretty girl ratio only in Bukarest.
If anybody wants to know anything about BP I am happy to answer it ITT.

I think most of the readers are wondering about the percentage of Budapest inhabitants who understand English and the existence of English-speaking ghettos there.

I think that changed much in the last ~10-15 years. I mean my parents ages doesnt speak english but if you go anywhere in BP and you ask for info from ~anybody normal under 40, you can get an answer at least.
For my ages (30-35) english language was not mandatory in school. Mandatory was for me the german and older guys could learn only Russian
Now its changed obv.

english speaking ghettos?? i dont know where are those hopefully never go there.

Yeah, the shared socialistic past surely gives Russians a linguistic relief

Anyone got cliffs notes on this nvg thread? Seems like a pretty standard "random busto poker player is a scammer" thread from glancing over first page, but it's exploded w/ 1300 some odd replies in only a few days, so I'm guessing some crazy sh-t has gone down in the thread

Idk, probably that's because Hero (PSUMike1999) is writing really long confession posts.

Anyway, reading NVG is -EV, except maybe for topics affecting the reader directly, e.g. on poker sites and countries where one is playing.

Just posting these here...

RIP Johannes Strassmann

True enough, agree tho I do like checking every couple days to see if any big stories have broken

Followed this NVG thread when he was just missing. This sucks man. Such dirt in the poker world. I hope its not poker related but obv not likely.

Money is the root of evil.

The police rules out foul play and is assuming it was just an accident. The whole story is just weird. But well, i guess a crime can be masked as an accident.

It's tempting to assume a crime whenever a deceased person was too wealthy for their age, but with the degen and risky lifestyle that's alas common in the poker circles, we can by no means rule out the accident hypothesis. It will be better for the public image of poker if more evidence of an accident arises. RIP, JS, anyway.

I have to reply with a counternom (in bold below) as MFN and Benni19 are on fire too, especially in their dispute in the OmahaDonk '500K hands in 45 days' prop bet thread.

(On a side note, it has started tilting me when people write 'grinded' instead of 'ground'; I've made this mistake 5 times myself, though )

Also, as we're approaching the middle of the year, with low traffic in LC threads, what do you all think about making them quarterly or even biannual?

****, that sentence is just standard. What you said in the way you said it probably made me laugh one of the most I ever laughed from looking at 2+2

This thread is maybe one other time I have literally lol'd my ass off.

Edit: Although looking now it's maybe not worth the time, most of the photoshops are dead links

noms are so 2011...

**** you need to get a gf

/enlightening

Though I might lick some female for money or legal or other help, I think I wouldn't enjoy it directly. (****ing is just a waste of time, pretty all orgasms they get from it are simulated, while the purpose - to give them a true orgasm in return for another benefit - is missed. And anyway they have nothing valuable to me that males don't have.)
