Epic thread.

so epic.

Just read the entire thread after first time opening it....wow. I gotta say this is an inspiring thread. Most stories you hear focus on the positives, disregarding the reality of situations. It is good to have you share your experience with the readers.

Word of advice, opinion...at the end of this experience(as you walk out the doors)hold your head high, put it all behind you and move on to doing what makes you happy...one day you can look back and get great satisfaction in realizing you overcame your troubles; also, quit poker upon exit, it may hold you down. Remember; poker is part of what got you into this situation...thinking of it as a solution is foolish... $8k is enough to start fresh...gl

my favorite post...besides the great boob climax that I was waiting for

did you copy that directly from ofotcn or did you write that yourself? if the latter, you are a brilliant writer!

still my favorite post...obviously not a movie buff.

post nurse-boob poast has raised thread to epic level.

I had just woken up when I wrote that if I remember correctly, and I've only seen ofotcn once and don't really remember it that well. Glad you liked it icracknuts! I have to be in a weird frame of mind to articulate my thoughts like that... usually after sleeping too much or not enough or maybe if was the prolonged intake of experimental drugs :S

I've been doing some thinking, and I've decided that my poker goal is to play PLO10 and the occasional $2 - $4 MTT with a bankroll of $500. Current bankroll is $150. Have been watching DC videos and am going to continue to do so (if anyone knows any good MTT series plz let me know, still need to study that). I've never ever used a HUD or any other software like that, but recently was given PokerOffice and am going to get my head around that program (looks great so far). Playing MTT's in the meantime with my small BR and will hopefully get closer to that goal.

Am also going to look into other games. I love PLO but the variance is insane. It's a very unique game, and it's taken me a long time to grasp how small the difference in preflop equity is between most starting hands... A very important thing to keep in mind when going to the flop. But yeah, as much as PLO is my favourite game it can be so very damn frustrating.

I'm on the home stretch now... 6 days left. Won't get the cheque from this place till mid March, so still have just under a month before receiving the big bucks. Need to find a new place to live, might even need to move back in with my mother. But I've lived independently for six years, don't know if I would like that. But it would be the smart thing to do money wise... decisions decisions. Any poker players in Adelaide looking for a housemate? :P

$2.20/$3.30 rush rebuys are v binkable

GL man, really good read.. hope u make the money count when you get out. Not long to go now.

that's not possible to be very unique...something is either unique or not

6 days shipit you're almost home free imo.

And yes, check out Enter the Void when you get out, preferably late at night after either a couple glasses of wine or a few tokes.

Your poker plans sound good, glgl.

You should be able to put your phone on silent and it should not make a sound when you snap the picture!!!

I wonder how many degenerates are gonna wank one out to this pic hahaha

Suck a **** tease. Strategically placing that strap between the boobies.

With all the games drying up 2+2 will soon need a subforum for income from medical testing. Best of luck to you and Anti_unreal.

Seriously tho OP, I enjoyed this thread a lot.

And how come you are going to get paid much later than the end of the trial?

NWB,
I am starting to realize how selfish you are being by planning to relinquish guinea pig status for your own health benefits and financial gains. We are enjoying this thread and your stories of horrendous experiences.

The only right thing for you to do is to IMMEDIATELY enter another drug trial. Potentially you could get bad roomates and double the string pill doses. Can you make it twice as long for half as much money?

Check your PM,

NSFW now.... lol, just playing.

Spent the last several hours reading thread whilst going 0/17 in sngs and tourneys.

Thanks for putting it all out there OP. It made me think about a lot thats going on in my life. I left my job to play poker last June and I've been on a 4 month cold stretch since binking a 1$ turbo rebuy for 2.4k in October. I'm getting very depressed here as I get closer to busto (Job time), and I appreciate the opportunity to read your thoughts and experiences as motivation to not let myself get to a similar depth of degeneracy (absolutely no offense intended). As someone mentioned earlier, you can have total control and then a bad beat (or 30) will erase months of hard work and diligence.

Here's to crushing the tables and getting out alive!

ps. +1,000,000 for BR management, with the occasional (reasonable) shot. If I didn't manage my money as well as I do I would have been busto months ago.

[x] yellow norks ITT.

Day 38. It's getting closer and closer to exit day. I'm actually really going to miss this place. I've spent over a month with these guys, getting to know them, mucking around, cabin fever. It's been good to have the company. When I get out, all that's waiting for me is my cramped little one bedroom apartment. Sure I can walk around naked and fap whenever I want, but there's more to life than grinding youjizz and bachelor frog, simmering in your own juices. I'm thinking I'm gonna give my landlord my 4 weeks notice today. Can't afford to stay there anymore, and don't really want to. The time I've lived there has been the most depressing time of my life. Moving back in with my mother seemded -ev at first, but upon further examination I think it's the right play. Wayyy less financial stress, which cannot be undervalued.

I know man, you gotta see them irl, just wow.

I'm glad you're liking the thread man. Although it won't be as exciting as the string pills and nurseboob and Nurse Ratched, I will keep this thread updated when I get out, whether it's a busto to robusto kind of deal, or more like a Leaving Las Vegas final binge, either way I know that some people would be interested enough in the outcome to make it worth the while for me to write it. fwiw, if the outcome is the latter, I'll be sure to get my sorry ass to Vegas to go out in style.

We get our cheque next month because that's when we go in for our final follow up visit and it's offically the end of the trial. They need blood samples, vitals etc. for x amount of days since last dosing.

I know, you're totally right, it is selfish. Tell you what, I'm going to show the head dick in charge this thread, and beg in the name of all that is holy to be allowed to stay on permanantly as some kind of "body donor" in exchange for the right to entertain my followers. But, if that is to happen, I'll be needing regular nurse action, I'm talking the works, sponge bath, full body massage, happy endings. In fact, I would demand a whole section of the ward to be curtained off for my own private lair - only hot virgin nurses are allowed in. And of course they would need to take regular sperm samples, which would be extracted with their mouths. If all these conditions are met, you got it.

Haha, you crazy bastard, I wish I could take you up on your offer man but I can't. If it was later in the year... sorry man. Would be a blast, but the 8k is going to have to be treated like gold for a while before I go blowing it on travelling. Sucks that I've wasted the past few years/thousands of dollars on foolishness but that's the case and now I gotta get my life in order. Thankyou very much for the offer though man.

Argh, that's the things with the tourneys... you can go so long without making any money... and when you're trying to make a living it can be terrifying. I'm sorry to hear that it has been a rough start, all I can suggest is keep using stories like mine to help you avoid turning small misfortunes into big ones. Just do your best and know that if you let yourself take stupid risks that you KNOW are wrong, you could lose a lot more than you thought possible. I'm really glad my thread is helping you, there's nothing like a story from the heart to put things in perspective. I think about how much other people's stories have helped me and I have no problem baring all to give something back. If someone is moved by it and is inspired to be more positive, then I feel real good about that



PS. Hey 2+2 forum master email guy that sent me the automated happy birthday email - please send me a free copy of Tournament Poker by David Slanksy!! You may have a relative that suffers from the disease I'm helping to find a cure for :P

What are you going to do on your first day out?

This thread is fine wine that gets better with age. Thanks for doing this OP, great read!

I don't think that 8K is gonna last long. I see a week long bender coming up.

GET LAID.

Haha, but if that fails, go home, read all my mail, get some beers, ring up some friends, maybe see what happens.



Anyone keen to rail I'm currently chipleader in a $4 MTT, down to the final table, NeverWasBeen on Stars!

nice chop!!

EDIT: Also, i guess that means i have to win a mtt now!!
