You gonna bring your laptop to Commerce and play with wireless at the tables? It seems to be the only way.

In case you haven't read the goals of this post, it is to put in a certain amount of hours, not to win a certain amount of money. I think that's great, because short-term winnings doesn't matter anyway.

Default June 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23 Report - Final Report!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, here we are. The UlyQuest is over. The 42nd and final day of the quest. When I left you last, things looked like this at Day 35:


35/42 days complete
89.25/150 hours complete
35 day target: 125h
(pace: 106h)


At the time I felt it was a bit of a letdown following my progress at Day 30:


30/42 days complete
80.25/150 hours complete
30 day target: 107.1h
(pace: 112h)


Little did I know.

June 17: Got a haircut. Went out to dinner. Went out drinking. Didn't feel like playing.

June 18: Got up early. Drove to LA w/ Sucker. Went to Commerce.

June 19: More Commerce. Good times.

June 20: A little bit more Commerce. Got back to SF late. Didn't feel like playing.

June 21: Went to friends' for dinner. Saw their cute little baby. Came back home. Didn't feel like playing.

June 22: Went out to dinner w/ little sister and friends for her birthday. Had a good time. Came home. Didn't feel like playing.

June 23: Going to sushi. Then going out afterwards. Won't feel like playing.

And that's it. 6 weeks. 42 days. 89.25h of poker.

Anyway, it was fun not playing any online poker for a week. I'll probably play some later this week. But really I just confirmed what I already knew - about 2hr/day or 10hr/wk is pretty much all the online poker I can stand, no matter how much money I make doing it.

Default Amended Final Report

I changed my mind and decided to play 60.75 hours straight to successfully complete my quest. But Party is down!!!!! Oh well, I guess I'll have to go out to dinner as originally planned. So, due to technical problems out of my control, this quest is declared a success.

Obfuscation, backtracking, waffling, and general sloth is so evident throughout this thread, and especially in the last post; that this entire Quest is declared an abysmal failure.


Back to your underground lair you devilish fiend. This new moniker you have adapted is perfect for the incorporeal nature I slapped you with. However, the photo oozes a Pro-wrestling aura that suggests you are both more and less than what you seem.

I suggest you read the Divine Comedy and find out what awaits you in the end.

You have been unmasked Devil, and will have to spend the rest of eternity reading philosophical treatises on Ontology while encased in Ice. Enjoy.
