time off time off time off...

I have to have some form of income. I could get a job, and I have considered it. I even wrote an email to a place I used to work, asking if they needed help with the season. That is extremly humbling.

Even with everything being as bad as it is I am still able to make ends meet with poker. I ran into a kink when one of my affiliates seems to have stopped paying... he owes me I think 3 months worth of rakeback...I havent worked all of this out yet, but I am at my patient breaking point. I am being positive that I will get paid, because my affiliate is a 2+2er.

go out with friends

Dont really have any. I jump at the chance to go out and meet new people when I get the chance, playing online poker for a living is very hermiting.

go take a girl to a movie
If it weren't for my girl I don't know where I would eb right now. We had some rocky times not long ago, but she has been an absolute pillar for me lately. She puts up with my ranting and my breakdowns.

have dinner with your parents

They live on the east coast, I live West Coast.

watch reruns of seinfeld

Been watching a lot of Cartoons and TV in my spare time. I went from seeing hardly any star trek to being an absolute nerd treky.

I think you should take some time away from SNGs and play NL cash games

I tried this , and after my first bad beat I stopped. I thought it would be nice to play some easy NL and clear a bonus. Party/skins have made bonuses hardly worth it now. I want to focus on a low variance game with limited BR needed. SnGs are the place for me right now.

go get a job waiting tables for a while. it will cause you to actually earn your money, and put into perspective how fortunate you have been over the last several years. furthermore, it will provide you with a steady income, and a solid group of friends. I know well over 1000 people in this city my age. I'd say 60% of it came from being in a big fraternity in a big college town, but at least 40% has come from the 3 years that i worked in restaurants. The restaraunt industry is basically a bunch of people who are just out of college, but are not ready to give up on that part of their life.

I think the $11s vary far more from table to table than the $22s-$55s.

I agree.

Come down to SoCal, do my job for me, I'll pay you 25% more than you would as a waiter, and I'll play poker.

Hey Stupid (or should I just call you Sucker?),

Sorry about that, had too, couldn't stop myself.

You want some tough love? Sounds like you need it (along with a lot of the rest of us. Me included!)

Make a committment to:
1) Post 3 complete HH's a day. Pick them off your hard drive immediatly when you are done playing. Just do it randomly, DON'T PICK THEM. I'll bet your problems are not where you think they are.
2) Then review AT LEAST 5 complete HH's with SNGPT. Every hand possible.
3) Then go to bed and relax.
4) Wake up to a bunch of "You're such an idiot" posts about your hands. (Of course everyone will say that about my comments too! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] )
5) Reply, ask questions about those posts (or just be ashamed you're such an idiot...that's usually what I do when reading posts. haha)
6) Go outside for a little while and enjoy life and let you brain do a little thinking WITHOUT YOUR HELP!
7) Fire up a couple SnGs and PROFIT!!!

You are a good player. You know how to do this. You have just gotten a little off track and need a swift kick in the butt. I'll bet the threat of a bunch of 2+2er's reviewing your HH's saying you are an idiot is enought to get you back on track.

One of my worst days was playing, not paying attention, goofing off, executing Fancy Play Syndrome to the max and then my coach shows up in the chat box! Talk about embarassing. I was so ashamed that I had someone helping me out, working for me, and I WASN'T DOING MY PART!

That instant when coach said "I'm watching" fixed my game a bunch! D I owe you man!

I think I'm a very good player, but I also know I can lose a bunch of money real quick by doing stupid things.

When this Party stuff all happened, I started playing and also reading 2+2 at the same time and stressing over what to do and how to proceed. I lost over $300 in 2 days. (Let's see, RB for the month = ~$450 and I lost $300 plus what should of been about $200 profit for those two nights. Yep, I'm stupid. You do the math. [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img] )

We're here for you. Besides, you need to get better so you can return to the WSOP and do well and then buy me one of them Dell monitors. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
