so man grinders could do this, if you are playing micro stakes more people should do this, its a win win, you get 8k and can play all the poker you want, and probably eat better than most people do already

OP,

Solid thread.

I just want to say that you really shouldn't post anymore pics. To put yourself through this and potentially **** your body up in some way, only to get kicked out for breaking the rules and receiving nothing would be horrible for you. Who knows what sort of mental state that would put you in.

Just be happy you didn't get caught taking the ones you did.

OMFG I just logged onto Stars for first time since starting thread and there's $365 in there!!!!! Holy f*ckin hell!! You guys are awesome!! I did not expect to see more than like $20... thankyou all so much!

I'm going to set table limits to enforce BRM. No sngs or cashies, just scheduled micro mtt's, limit at maybe $3.30, sound about right?

I know, it's hard cause I would like to satisfy everyones curiosity and post more pics, but it's pretty risky. I've got a month left, plenty of time to put my feelrs out and test the waters. I'm being careful to only divulge information that I don't feel is senstive, although maybe the whole thing is sensitive... But anyway thanks for the advice

Hell yeah, if you can use your time wisely I thnk it's a great opportunity. You just have to accept that you are going to experience some discomfort and give up soem fo the freedoms that you are used to. Some people cannot do that, and I understand why. In here there's no stepping outside whenever you like to feel the sun on your back, no playing with your kids or pets, no waking up next to your loved one. There's needles and hassles and roomates that fart and snore and keep you up at night and nurses that take your blood while you sleep so that vampires interrupt your dreams

Because of my initial reaction to this drug (pulse rate dropping low), I have to wear a telemetry device from morning till night. This device sends signals to a nearby computer on this floor that monitors my vitals. Unfortunately, because of the limited range between telemetry and the computer, I was not allowed to accompany the rest of my group on their excursion today They were all taken on a field trip and I'm stuck here - that's the second time since I've been here! The weather is so good outside too. Would suck if it wasn't for this thread and the $3k guarantee that I'm playing

I beat my previous record last night on the exercise bike, so it's not too bad that I don't get to stretch my legs. But some fresh air would be amazing

Dude...don't you watch movies? You were saved. They were all taken to some remote location, drugged, and probed anally by evil doctors and/or aliens.

Heck, if they come back they are probably just clones and may even be zombies. Consider yourself lucky.


Hey, these drugs you are testing don't make you paranoid, do they?

Hahaha, it's not the drugs making me paranoid, it's the fact that people are trying to kill me!! And yes I have had my suspicions about these people for some time.... they... they act strange, I just know they talk about me when I leave the room and make fun of me... I wasn't born yesterday... hey did that wall move??

I decided to share a bit of my good fortune with Bed 2, he deserves it. He turned $10 into $100 and our ****** internet connection dropped out and he lost $80 while holding nut flush! Good karma for you BBV!

My actual thinking was more in terms of whether clinical trials more common / culturally accepted in those countries. A lot of people in the UK don't know much about them, and based on a few responses in this thread thinking that OP is making this up (huh?), I assume that not many people do this in the US either.
Yeah, I was partially trolling. I've never heard of a particular dislike of any of those nationalities in the UK so I went with it. Your question interests me too; I've never gone looking for a clinical trial but at least some advertise in classifieds of major newspapers. Curious how OP found what I would call a major trial (most of what I've seen in classifieds I would call minor trials, smaller scale, lower offered value or none printed).

I called them up and lucked out as they had several trials going at once, three different ones for this alone. I picked the longest, highest paying one of course

Cheers to SeanDPrawn, my first railer!

I don't mean to be rude and it's none of my business to tell what to do to people but I think instead of sending some money to OP you could help someone starving or really need the money for her/his health.

OP, If I were in your shoes, I would never play poker until I find a job. You have uncertain future and 8k is not much money. Try to resist "I need to play" feeling. I would feel awful if I knew my opponent is playing with his last savings and has to do such things with his health once he loses. I hope your back get well soon and never forget this experience for your entire life. I wish you, strength and great patience for the rest of your hospital days.
