made day 2. Albeit only abt half the avg. Over half the field gone tho. Good luck tomorrow, backers.

Ya srsly, I've read dozens of articles on the DOJ online poker shut down and related topics. Maybe one or two came across as pretty neutral, virtually all others were completely on our side.

Pretty crazy to have a debate this one sided on the internet, considering some people on the internet found ways to come down against Japan after the earthquake/tsunami (horrible but true).

you guys have been able to withdraw from stars, correct? full tilt? I can't withdraw from either WTF

anyone have any experience with schools in vancouver?

i was thinking that since I have stars team online, maybe my best course of action is studying finance in vancouver.

US players? No. We still cant withdraw from stars. I think some non US players have been able to and others still haven't.

Debating getting a room at the wynn for most of wsop getting a poker rate... wondering if there's any interest from non-randoms to split that... wouldn't be that expensive, averaging 6hrs a day between two people should be easily doable (obv you gotta be a cash game grinder as well, I don't want the 6 hour burden by myself)


I'm thinking like June13th-July15thish. I'm obviously gonna be looking to have fun while I'm out there but my primary purpose will be to grind and make money. If you're looking to bring hookers and blow back to the room every night don't bother contacting me. Obv I'll be having fun and going out etc, and what you do with your time is your business just sayin be respectful. If you're a complete and utter random don't bother contacting me.

The only caveat is I won't be able to 100% confirm that I can do this for maybe 4 weeks or so b/c I'm 90% taking a job but the start date is unconfirmed. I'm willing to make the reservation asap assuming it can be cancelled. I'm pretty easy going/easy to get along with, will pretty much only use the room to sleep anyways... Will be playing 5/10 and 10/20nl and probably 3-5 events.

PM me if you want to discuss further.

My friend and I tried to stay at the hotel for whole wsop last year. We went crazy and went. Home after 3 weeks. It feels like you in house arrest.

I've stayed at the Meridian for about a month before and it was fine. Nice, clean, fully furnished apartments with a relaxing pool and a serviceable gym. It's on Koval about 2 long blocks from the Bellagio. The only thing is that, once you get off the strip around there, it's not the safest of safe places to be walking at night. Tupac got killed on the corner. Like a dumb****, I did walk it sometimes with up to 100K in my pocket, but wouldn't do it again. Most times at night I just took a short cab ride back. Also, a lot of strippers supposedly live at the Meridian, and I did occassionally see some talent in the gym and at the pool.

I think it's better than a hotel room unless you have a sick suite. It gets you out of a casino, etc.

my brother goes to UBC and loves it there, i dont know your college situation but if you can somehow get in, id recommend it.

Yea Clayton everyone I know that went to UBC loved it.

lol ya this is a terrible idea especially if people saw you cash out or whatever and just walk out

there is an awesome nude beach right beside UBC

since spring has hit Sweden like a bomb I'll add this beautiful trance song as I think it's fitting, you can listen to it from the beginning if you want but its rather long and here is where it starts getting sik.


Roger Shah & Signum - Healesville Sanctuary (Signum Mix)

lol old

Great track though.

I just got back in Norway from 5 months of traveling, amazing weather here now as well.

Also, check out this track : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pmnbLsbPvs
Great vocals in it.

gl!

you are norwegian right kjemmy? I went to Oslo in 2005 on 17:e May to check out Tiesto play for the first time in Rockefeller music hall, was pretty damn dope!

Seen him a bunch of times after though, even have the obligatory idol pic from a VIP lounge

Was laughing the whole time watching it. Good stuff. Is he your cousin?

Found 'em

Also, I don't think its a bad idea to include how much you've made. Its your resume. You're supposed to brag.

Also, you might want to include what countries you've traveled to and if you've played any wsop events, since interviewer may have seen poker on tv, etc

i wouldn't recommend doing this. like sasha said, staying in a hotel room for weeks begins to feel like you're in jail, 4+ weeks would be hell. if you do decide to stay in a hotel, at least rent a car so you can do other stuff around LV too(food/nightlife/etc.), having to rely on cabs all the time is awful. i tried that my first summer in vegas and definitely wouldn't recommend it if you're going to be there for more than a few days

I'm driving out so I'll have my car fwiw.. ya i def get what you're saying though... I was at Aria for like 4 weeks last year and I went crazy at the end and snap booked a flight the day I busted the main cause I had to get out of there.
