Mark Hunt seems like such a great dude. Bob Sapp is so damn big. Saku seems fairly big too.

hey dusty
rush is an awesome band.
also, what are your thoughts on the wild swedish bank shootout
your fan,
nolan.
Swedish bankrobbers are probably not as well prepared as some others. Just seemed like some random people with some stupid ass ideas. Sad that one died.

Awesome results. Do you only play PLO?
Almost, some MTT's and some tripple draw too.
Anyway, having another really good month. Bad volume but running really good. Like ridiculous. Playing a bit of mid stakes and then any decent 5/10 and 10/20 game I happen to get a seat in. Prima has no waiting lists, so it's a bit of a gamble.
Still annoyed with the weather. It's cold as fuck here so I stay in to much, not getting enough sun light and getting a little winter depressed. That shit needs to go away soon, been having it for a long time now. Thought a good upswing would fix it but it seems like I was wrong in that assumption. Regarding doing shit I've put down a ton of work with the Swedish Libertarian Party and I actually got a call which was rather interesting. It's a secret for a few months but basically I'll have a fairly decent chance to actually do something fairly worthwhile which will probably give me a sense of accomplishment and meaning and whatnot this summer. I think it'll be good for me.
I feel I need the following:
- Doing more shit outside and/or exercise more. Shit will come when it gets warmer.
- Figure out how to get more volume in without getting so bored.
- Keep doing shit. I want to do all kinds of shit. I want to leave some kind of little mark on this world, I want to buy a nice house, I want to make a lot of money, I want to figure shit out, I want to understand stuff, I want to "get" stuff. Can't do that without some hard work.
I have that "HARD WORK ---- PAYS OFF!" from Tito vs Chuck TUF in my head. I can't stand Tito (except he should've gotten an Oscar for best male supporting actor in Zombie Strippers) but that rings true to me.
Other then that Tom Deblass said this in some interview before he signed with UFC;
“I think the toughest point is whenever you think you’re on top, you always get knocked back down,” DeBlass said. “I’m waiting for that to happen. Everybody says that it has to happen. I want to believe that it won’t happen. Just having that haunts you every day you wake up. Yeah, I’m on top of the world now, but that could end real quick. Just knowing the possibility that I could lose, it’s disappointing before it’s even happened.”
I'm like that, not sure if it's good or not. He sure did not preform in the UFC, even though I think he got kind of screw with short notice stuff.
I deleted all computer games from my computer a couple of days ago. I'm super bored. It's annoying because I get somewhat annoyed all the time, but on the other hand I tend to play a million small poker sessions. That's good. Had a 10k day or so thanks to that today. Or I might've dipped a bit at the end. Dunno, in the neighbourhood at least.
I watched JCVD on netflix. It was fairly entertaining. Thinking about watching Bronson tomorrow. Looks great. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1172570/
Put down 5000 SEK or about 750 USD on Mighty Mouse over Dodson. Not sure why, guess I feel for the group pressure. Might be a good bet. 5000 to win 2000. Gotta win 2.5 times for each non-win, he probably does. Thinking of betting Maia over Fitch too. Not sure. Really want to bet on the Reem vs Silva but lines are so damn bad. I don't like the "shit happens" factor.
Well .. I'm calling it one day because I haven't gotten to sleep yet but the last 36 or so hours I definitely haven't had a run like I just had. +56k. I knew I was having a good day but it didn't seem like anything out of the ordinary until I started 3 tabling some reg HU @ 15/30NL. Ended up getting 22k from him. In the meantime I was 4 tabling 6max on another site and managed to win another 15 or so over just those few hours.
It's weird too because I actually have been complaining lately about how bad I felt I've been running. I was only up about 5k for the month up until yesterday, but also I had really only played about 20-25 hours on the month up until that point. Lucky for me I did win all 3 three coin flips @ the 15/30 tables. If I had lost all those I guess I would've broken even.
Everytime I think that elusive 100k month is within reach I immediately enter a downswing. This is the 4th time now I think I might be able to make it by the end of the month. ~39k more to go, that is, if I can find the motivation to keep playing.
I feel like I should celebrate in some way, not sure how, though suggestions are welcome.

Just finished Death Note and loved it; hoping to find something at the same level. Any suggestions? Started Full Metal Alchemist, but seems very childish by comparison...
bought a treadmill/clotheshangersoon.jpgby whamm!, January 19
goal is to lose a lot of poker fat ive accumulated over 3 years mainly in the gut area. its become this gelatinous blob and im getting lines below my chest. motorized treadmills have become relatively cheap these days so I plan to watch stock tickers while walking ala tom cruise in vanilla sky lolol
anyone do a lot of sportsbetting? i started to do some lately just for fun, but addicting (lol) so think i might try and do more of it. i don't think i'm a great handicapper at any sport so seems like the best method is to just go line-shopping. only thing is i'm US so there's limited options and some seem sketchy. i have couple grand on Intertops from when i was playing poker there so i've only been using them so far to bet sports, with that kind of limited roll is it worth trying to spread it out over more sites for line-shopping (taking into account transaction fees, risk of sites closing/confiscating funds, etc.) or should i just stay at one site for now?

Hi, as I've seen some guys who invests in the market I was looking for any information could be helpful to get started,
like a good/safe site? restrictions law/country stuff?
I'd like to hear some words of motivation and advice from you guys. Here are my stats, please go ahead and find some leaks. Am I folding to cbets too often? Am I folding to 3bets too often?
