Also was PMing pooter asking how to set up a sex tourism wordpress blog, but he quit saying it was ‘more work than I thought’
pooter was encouraging me.

i watched a youtube video about wordpress which was interesting, started writing a couple of reviews but it's all too much work.

i'm better off putting my energy into something that makes me even more employable.

fads come and go my friend.

Is there still a website that allows you to book fake onward flights?

When getting one of these tickets, once you get the print out of the ticket, does it matter that they cancel it in 48 hours? I imagine that the embassy won't check?

More likely managing the deep fryer. Clearly he lacks the people skills to actually manage employees, not to mention his overall bitterness and hating of life, it's much more likely that he takes orders and not give them.

Right, and it's only about 30 hours between you handing an embassy your passport and getting it back, so if you time it right it doesn't even matter if they check. But I agree they prob don't check.

Edit: at least for in person application, applying by mail in home country takes 3-5 working days. I didn't need to show an onward ticket though, when applying in the UK

i've got a stable work history. many of you are effectively in the gig economy fighting to keep your heads above water.
I think most people in this thread lean towards hedonism and prefer to enjoy their youth rather than scrimping and saving to maximize their post-retirement EV. I would advise poker pros to start developing a backup plan because poker will not survive the encroaching waves of bots and cyborgs.

I don't see poker going away in 5 years unless it becomes illegal most place. Stars might be making less money by then but I'm sure they'll make more than enough to stay operational. Are bots an actual issue in MTTs?

Dont be shy? We dont actually know you IRL so why does it matter if we judge? As I said, just curious - as I am with most others in the thread who dont play any more.

I quit playing poker as an income 3 years ago. I still play a few hands every month or so, and have the occasional MTT session during SCOOP or WCOOP, but I still frequent this thread as I still live in Koh Samui. My main income now comes from my motorbike and car rental business here, amongst other things.

It's much harder to make a strong agent for MTTs than cash because of stack size variation, ICM, full ring tables and more(probably) multi-way pots. MTTs won't hold out indefinitely, though.

At present, the country maintains the illegal status of cannabis regardless of the purpose of use. Anyone caught in possession of the drug could be locked up for 15 years.
However, the cabinet of ministers under the military government approved to amend laws that would allow testing of cannabis on human subjects for its medical properties. The National Legislative Assembly, which currently debates the bill, is expected to approve legalization in April 2019.
