OP turned down the free lessons and free stake from us fwiw. You guys didn't do a good enough job of convincing him.

Hey op can we get some cliffs?

Have you noticed any physical effects from the drugs that have been given to you?
How much $ have you received from transfers?
Have you considered starting a homegame on stars for you and the other people that play poker in the experiment?

To be successfull at poker you have to commit yourself %110 all the time, the edges are too small to be messing around in this profession.

I didn't want to waste your time or money bro. I don't have enough confidence in my hold em game, or in my ability to have the patience required for playing $2 180 sngs splitting half the profits. It would be perfect so many other worthy palyers, I'd feel bad taking someone's spot.

Physical effects include occasional dizziness, a strange presence (hard to explain) and a chemical smell in my sweat. Also makes my pulse rate drop, sometimes pretty low. Another guy was sent home for possible liver damage.

I'd rather not say how much I got in the end, but it wasn't a huge amount. Also, all xfers ended ages ago, like around 5 pages ago. Since then I've shipped some of that money to others, like the guy who shipped me the $ for the tourney I won (gave him $30 back on his $10), my rail fans, Bed 2, and a friend. It was awesome while it lasted, but it's not the reason that I made this thread, and not the reason I'm keeping it going.

I scored "Benny's Room" as the name for my home game.
Might have to get it going. Any of you be keen for some PLO sng's?

Glad to hear things are coming along good and you sound like you have really picked your game up, both in poker skills and tilt control in general. Watch bear grylls escape to the legion for a time killer, it will give you a good insight into a situation very much like yours. You will see what im talking about after you see the 4 part series.

7 mins till tourney start. Will probably cancel as I'm pretty sure it was too short notice/bad timing. But if anyone still wants to play there is time... refer to above details if interested

Winblows blows, I'm not kidding.

The "Windows is an operating system and not a program that may or may not blow" debate thread is down the hall. Stop derailing.

NWB, I think what you need more than anything is something to keep your mind focus. Have you heard of poker performance coaches? They basically teach you to prepare your body for game time so you can play your A game more often than not. You said you joined DC right? There's a guy named Travis Steffen that does video on that subject, you should check it out (I'm not a DC member, so I haven't watched it, but the guy is solid). I think for you, learning how to prepare yourself to grind and keep your focus on your objective is gonna be one of the most invaluable lesson you can learn as a poker player.

It becomes very clear you've a serious problem with poker and until your game improves u rnt gna get through it without losing a lot of money - no offence.

Doing this is going to get you more money, but it isn't going to cure this.

Think abt it

Thanks man. You are absolutely right. Keeping focus is something I've always struggled with, and I'm willing to try anything to improve it because it gotten me into trouble. I looked that guy up on DC and downloaded his 10 part series. Thanks heaps for the reccomendation.

And if anyone else knows any videos on DeucesCracked that could help me with tournament play I would be eternally grateful. With the Travis Steffen vids and the Tommy Angelo series, I've got a fait bit on the fundamentals, but still need to plug some of those leaks that are making my game suffer

You're right. Leave it with me. I'm taking a break for 24 hours, and am going to watch the videos I've downloaded. Reinstated my table limits too.



Also, I wanna give a huge thanks to Johan at PokerOffice.com for being a legend and letting me have a copy of their software. I don't know what to say man! I can't wait to try it out.

All the advice and support that all you guys have given me means a lot, and I won't forget it. I need sh*t like this to get me on the right track, it's just taking me some time to stop making the same screw ups that got me here.

So, when you **** off the 8k in a drug and alcohol induced tilt session, will you tell that story in THIS thread, or do we need to be keeping an eye out for a NEW thread? Will you please at least post a link here for us so we can also follow the "I went busto thread"? K, thanks.
