I've quit poker. I'll still be playing sometimes but just for fun, it's a shame I spent so long trying to get good and never made it and it feels horrible to stop now after putting in so much time, but the more i play, the more time I waste... It's just not a good option for me. This site has been a great resource over the last 2 years, thanks a lot.
So what now? I am applying for some jobs and it is looking likely I will get a job for some telecomms franchisor, customer service - it will be fucking horrible but much better than wasting my life sat infront of a monitor trying to chase a dream. Hopefully having a job will help me improve my social and make some real life friends, maybe even get a girlfriend and lose my virginity sometime this year. I'm hoping I can come up with a good plan to eventually make money from my photography, because I really don't think I will enjoy this job - if anyone has any suggestions on this let me know... Creating a career out of photography is very hard nowadays since so many people are doing it (badly i might add) and it its generally just oversaturated like hell, you really have to pull off some special shit to get noticed or open up your own business. You can check out some of my photographs at http://www.fluidr.com/photos/dfenner/interesting
I'm entering real life after 3 years of sitting on my ass doing absolutely nothing, what a fucking waste. I've also started working out frequently and have improved my nutrition, running is good as its something I am actually improving on... Started this year running for like 2 mins then needing to take a break, now I can nearly run 5k without a break, fast improvements! I'm not fat or anything so thats probably why I'm improving so fast, just not used to exercising at all.
My advice for anyone who is beginning is to take comments like "anyone can beat nl100 easily" lightly and if you've invested like 6+ months into the game and you're still stuck below nl100, just quit. Unless you're playing this game PURELY for entertainment, which I doubt many people are.
Heres my lifetime graph for you all to laugh it, I believe I started late april/early may 2007, with a total of 2150 hours played. Cashed out about 4-5k, if i worked a minwage job I would've made like 40k probably and I would have a much better social life, work experience and everything. fml .
I take photos. I was wondering if anyone knows anything about integrating paypal into a web gallery for selling prints? I'm pretty clueless at this.
There are lots of sites that do this automatically in the US, but for Australia there isn't any... Atleast that are decent anyway. So I want to create my own and print myself and send them out myself.
First 90k hands are 5nl 24tabling, rest is 25nl 4table swongz after dogishead coaching. Going to England to visit family untill new years and won't be able to grind so this is the last day of the year for me! Hope you all run good and have a nice christmas and new years.
Anyway december graph + year graph
I'm hoping 2010 will be a great year for me, going to try sort my life out in many ways other than just poker. I believe I have grown up a lot this year even though it has 99% been a waste. Roll on 2010!
