26 club as well.

Also, moved countries on Sunday and had my first day at a real job today since 2009, feels pretty good. If anyone lives in Melbourne now or will be in town for the millions, hit me up

Congrats on the weekend. I wish I still had time to play. Been pretty happy without poker though, tbh. I played something like 30k hands this summer and didn't really enjoy it.

yeah thats about right

Used to main 2/4 3/6 in the day, couple million hands logged

now I'm competitive at like .10/.25

sigh.

People were so ****ing bad in 2005-2006. I did not play yet then (sadly, was slow to the party) but some of my friends did. They were then on 1knl, later on 5knl. Some of the hands we later looked at for fun (huge wins/bad beats that they had saved for some reason) were played so badly by every person involved all the time.

And still winning 7ptbb at the time.

I'm 24.

I'm only mildly convinced I was a winning player with 500k hands lifetime. After someone posted that simulator where you put in a win rate and standard deviation and it showed potential lifetime earnings, the magnitude of poker variance seems unfathomable.

Looking tasty! I'm pretty fired up about the football season, for the 9ers, my fantasy legue, and of course the food.

No I am in Holland.

Anyone needs a visa to go there but for EU residents that is quite easy. Buy a ticket, send passport, get it back with visa in it.

For business you need an invitation letter, but a working permit can be difficult to obtain.

Congrats. I have a couple of full time accounting interviews on Friday and surely more to come in the next two weeks (I better, I think the career fair went well tonight and have strong resume except 5 yrs of lolpokerz). One company who I submitted a resume to earlier this month was here tonight and when I introduced myself they said, "oh you're the poker player we think that's so awesome." #bigwin

Side note: if you're looking for jobs and need to talk about poker, make sure you talk about how you developed skills with teamwork aka poker forum friends and IRL friends. Also, mention how you were able to develop lifelong friendships with these people. Big brownie points on an otherwise sensitive subject.
