I posted a while ago about shuffling chips while playing. I chose to refer to myself as as a dork rather than a geek. Is there a difference?

When the only one of these doesn't describe you =\

You have discussions involving in why you love Stud8 despite it not being as "sexy" as hold`em.....with yourself.

When the only reason you go to work is because they have a dedicated T3 line and low traffic.

When the internet goes down at your house so you drive 80mph to your office to finish out your tourney while on the phone with your buddy screaming at him during the drive wondering if it has come back and if he has been able to play a hand.

When after driving up to your office at 1am to finish your tourney you take your laptop into the bathroom with you and use a stolen ID/password to access the Wi-Fi at the neighboring building because your office is too cheap to go wireless.

You consider going to GA after taking a horrible series of losses.....to rebuild your bankroll.

When you wake up in a cold sweat after having a nightmare about a badbeat.

When you suggest that back in school you needed @ least 60% to pass a class and that GA should apply the same standards meaning that your 11 Yes answers are still perfectly healthy.

I think mine have surpassed geek into psychological issues from poker....if it wasn't for the easy money I'd quit and check into GA. However it is easy money, so I still stand by GA moving to a 60% qualifying mark and that are just desperate for memebers.
