Do you suffer from clinical depression?


Have you ever been bullied?

Crag's attitude about poker sounds very pessimistic. If he was putting in enough volume I don't see how he could think he was going to lose every day. It's just not logical thinking. I credit the guy for being able to be a professional for this long of a time but he just sounds burnt out and has no desire or motivation to make more $$ playing poker. ggwp crag.

Most of the time I lived in the US in Washington state. I don't know about living costs in the rest of the US, but I doubt there is anywhere cheaper. You can easily get by living on your own for 12k a year.

Since adding back in the omaha grind most days are winning days now. I just wish I could have something resembling "normal" luck in mtts since that really is where all the money is at imo.

Hey man, been reading this thread. I'm the same age you are and was an avid computer programmer back in high school and am thinking about doing these programming boot camps that you mention. Where did you find these? I'm going to assume google. Have you done any independent research regarding these programs? How much are they? You cite the low acceptance rate, what makes you think you'll be accepted? I'm thinking about leaving my job grind to do the online poker grind, what advise would you give me? I had a 76 ability score on sharkscope before Black Friday hit. Obviously, the game has changed and players are a lot better, but I think I can get a fairly solid hourly. I wish you luck in the future.

Do you really think you are +ev in mid-high stakes MTT's or is your downswing primarily from Russians, Ukrainians, etc. always getting there vs. you?

Hi

Your assumption is correct

The amount they charge depends on several factors. Some want just a lump sum at the beginning. Others charge you some initial amount + some % of your first year's salary. The amount you could pay in that sense is not fixed then. You can safely expect to pay a minimum of $10,000.

Their low acceptance rate has nothing to do with them only accepting the best of the best. It's a combination of very limited amount of spots and a large amount of applications.

I think most people won't put in any work beforehand or very little at least. For me, this is an "all or nothing" kind of thing so I can't really leave it up to chance to fail.

In regards to your sharkscope score, I don't think that number really means anything tbh. If you look at a solid, low stakes player and compare his rating to a high stakes fish, the high stakes fish will always have a higher rating.

Fwiw, i have an ability rating of 87 in the $60 hu plo8 sngs. In comparison, tatta who is the biggest winner overall in that game has an ability rating of 91. When I filter only for $100s/$200s, my winrate drops significantly while my abilty rating increases a point. I think the formula for determining that # is skewed heavily towards the buy-in.

When I see the standard of play in these things I think even a monkey with half his brain removed would be ev+

And yeh, I really cannot beat commies for the life of me. Odds, cards, nothing matters.

Jesus was a teen? I always thought he went from being a baby straight into being a bearded adult?

I agree with your sharkscope ability score assessment. I think one of the toughest transitions for online players to the real world will be in dealing with people especially your bosses. There's a lot of stress and bs that comes along with that.
