You've been playing professionally for 9 months or so.

What's the biggest difference in full-time and part-time play?

How do you stay motivated?

Any difference in dealing with downswings between full and part time?

What was your biggest resource in learning the game? Just putting in hands, a book, the forums?

Nice combo! A few questions here:

1/Have you been to Europe? If not, do you plan to visit any time soon?

2/How many hours do you play per week?

3/What percentage of your income comes from Rakeback & bonuses?

4/Hablas español? Es mi lengua materna.

I have been playing a decent amount of 1-2 at UB this year..

Whats ur SN? =)

Grats on your well, and thanks for doing it.

It is unfortunate that you like the Cubs, would you say that it is a genetic deficiency? But seriously, Wrigley Field is pretty cool, though I hated the "troughs" as a kid.

Hilarious.

Sorry to hear you had to live in Sterling.

Why Indiana?

Would you like to move out of Indiana?

What flavor blunts?

Indiana is one of the lead growers of outdoor marijuana and has one of the highest populations of the KKK in the United States. IYO would you say that there is a correlation between the two?

Do you know anyone in the KKK?

Shot taking or BR management?

4 different random cards including a low or all paint with a pair all in pre-flop vs 2 opponents?

Cracked up pretty good reading about the WNBA stool incident. I've gone ballistic over the most ridiculous sports moments because I had a bet on a game I would otherwise never ever be watching so I feel you.

Whats the #1 piece of advice you could give to a new O8 player? Not necessarily stuff like "have this size BR" or "read this book" but just general advice

Do you think plo8/nl08 is still going to be around in 10 years, 20 years? What is your plan if it isn't?
Favorite smoking method? Do you play when you smoke?
What sites do you play on?

sick bumping on a 2010 well............

how does it feel to grind a printing press for a living?

What % of your ave. monthly income you spend on 1) women, 2) weed, 3) eating out????

Am I the only one that thought this was a current well?. Wow, 2011 is here. LMAO.

This well deserves more love, let's get to at least 100 replys ...

Since your last reply on this thread was 02-21-2010, 10:34 AM

What have you been up to? Still playing PLO8/NLO8? Have you moved to PLO?

What advice can you give to a player that can't seem to break away from being a break even player.

hi all - sorry its taken me a few days to get back to these posts

This forum is a good resource for moving up in microlimits. When a midstakes winner actually posts in a thread, it would serve the microlimit players well to listen to the advice, because it's hard to come by.

I'd say the majority of my 'learning' has come from self-discovery, along with having a few buddies I consider to be close to my skillset who I chat with on AIM. A lot of players hold the opinion that chatting with other regs off the tables is -EV, but I think in the end both players learn a lot from mutual open discussion.

have fun, and remember that poker is a long, long journey.

10 years, 20 years, who knows. i honestly don't have a plan that far down the road. hopefully i have a fat nest egg saved away if/when poker truly ever dies.

favorite smoking method - vaporizor. i never play if i'm high, only because poker is not a leisurely activity for me anymore.

women - it depends on how high maintenance the broad. the last gold-digger may have cost me 20% a month, but the tang was worth it.

weed - i rarely buy weed, or smoke for that matter. 2x a month maybe, but when i do i buy whatever kush/blahblah/exotic strain.

eating out - 1 or 2k a month, i dunno. depends on if you include bar tabs. i try not to think about the bar tabs thing.

im playing anywhere from 1-2 to 10-20 plo8 nowadays, dabbling in PLO. most of my hands this month have been at 5/10 HU PLO8.

if you're a breakeven player, spot your leaks (ask others especially), and work on them 1 at a time. you'll just mix yourself up in the head if you try to revamp your game entirely.

volcano? or just standard vap?

i don't smoke nearly enough to know the difference

How many tables do you have up at a time?
Best college story (non poker/gambling related)?

+1 on Canada. I really wish the USA would **** or get off the pot regarding the UIGEA. If they are really worried about money being laundered to terrorist countries then shouldn't they also be worried about all foreign owned businesses in the USA as well? If that is what the UIGEA is really about...........

Where in Indiana? I live there too and dont know of any KKK members either

One thing that I frequently see in this forum is complaints about "nits". Nit to me is a derogatory term, yet I watch so many "good" players playing extremely tight. I won't name names but I'm talking numbers like 18/6, 17/3, 16/3, etc..

What do you feel is a good VPIP/PFR for FR and would you consider players with those stats above to be easily exploitable nits?

You mentioned being "creative" earlier. Can you give us an example of your creativity or is it something more along the lines of 3-betting K992?
