By no means is grinding as glamorous as the pros make it seem. Bad beats from all the weak players and then I also have to deal with the online pros at my tables.

But at least I finally tried zoom, more hands in less time they said!

Cliffs: I open shoved or 3 bet shoved every hand I was going to play at 2NL Zoom

After a shaky start and a few misclicks I managed to get my act together

                  I think your mother failed in not having you aborted. Then again, I think your grandmother failed in not having your mother aborted. Maybe your father had weak sperm, who knows. I'm guessing though it's one of those things, otherwise you wouldn't be born with such disgusting comments.

                  Massive gene pool fail on your side.
