Feel like there's been a wave of quality, cool blogs and I hate to break the trend, but I'm getting desperate here. Does anyone know how to fix the seating on Hero Poker tables so that your own avatar is always in the same spot? I know this was asked by Night and answered on a different thread, but we both can't seem to find that thread anymore lol.
I like starting out everyone of my recent blog posts with the same line: It's been a while since my last blog post. But this time I can't really attribute that to laziness. Been hard on the live poker grind ever since Black Friday! Games are good! Still trying to figure out ways to play online thou. Most of my online poker grind time at home has been replaced by Starcraft 2 / Heroes of Newerth. Like many other poker players I know, I've also been looking elsewhere for new sources of income. I guess they call it "diversifying your portfolio". Started staking some good friends in some of the live games, which is nice because when I come home from a soft game it still feels like I'm grinding the game. Also, putting a lot of time and effort into a website that will be launching later this year. More on that at a later time
In the meantime, check out how good I'm getting at golf...

Just played a random mtt and binked :)by Drakk, August 17
While i was watching the very deceiving Dota2 stream I decided to touch my poker account for the first time in a decently long time, single tabling a turbo mtt while watching the stream inbetween 2 server crashes, and binked it no sweat really. http://img847.imageshack.us/img847/2842/poker17aout.jpg
Hey guys, I'm starting a group conversation on Skype where we can hopefully always have 10-50 people online. (6max and MTT grinders plz)
We can talk about hands and have multiple perspectives etc, teach each other and grow as players.
We can also shadow each other and help each other in other ways. (blowjobs, junglemaning, u get the jist, etc)
I recently started taking 6max seriously again, am loving it, and realize I have a long, long way to go, this is just another step that hopefully does pan out well;
so ya, if ur grinding merge in the states like so many of us, and want to talk about hands n stuff, send me a PM and i'll get you in our skype convo.
Stars players are all welcome too, and MTT'ers are welcome as well.
I tend to share screens and teach ppl mtting free often, and love to go over hand histories of mtts as well. so def get in there if your an mtter too.

If question is stupid sorry just wondering if i could save the 80$
I have previously bought Microsoft office word 2007 for some school stuff when it was mandated, so I bought the student deal for the big 4 for like 50$ or w/e have the disc's and product keys etc.... Can i load that onto the new Macbook Pro or am i gonna have to go buy the Iworks for the 80$ or w/e it is??
edit: i need to figure out how to actually make them playable here w/o it just being a link :/
edit2: Some funny fb statuses from a friend of mine.
Just got off the phone with my mate. He says its been raining non-stop in his area for 3 days and his wife has done nothing but stare at the window the whole time. He says if it keeps raining for much longer he'll have to let her back in the house.
If the zombie apocalypse ever happens, im just going to surround my house with outward facing treadmills. I should be fine.
Please put this on your status if you know someone (or are related to someone) who has been eaten by dragons. Dragons are nearly unstoppable and, in case you didn't know, they can breathe fire. 93% of people won't copy and paste this, because they have been eaten by dragons.
edit3: need opinions. where should I put the 2nd tv?
i had 45% on BTN; in this month ( 40k hands in the graph above ) i changed it 35%: http://i.imgur.com/Rn7fZ.jpg
and i play now 4 tables only trying to make as many notes as possible
i must srlsy butcher many big pots to loose like this over large sample or do you see some major flaws in my PF play from stats?
and i choose tables with at least two fish, so maybe i just donk know how to play fish lol

this river is a fold to min-r but i just couldnt do it and also i should bet more to make it look like a busted draw, and bet more on turn since there are so many draws and he is in possition so he will call a lot prolly
Finally started to play poker again :Dby theoneandonly, August 16
I am so happy right now, I was finally able to start playing again on the cake network. depositing money to day felt sweet!
I am going to try to take poker somewhat more serious this time instead of just a hobby and mtt playing.
I deposited $50 today and planned to do the following:
Play nl0, if I lose 2 BIs move down to nl4 until i reach $50 again. Move up to NL25 whenever I reach $200.
I also will get some hours of coaching and will be buying either PT3 or Holdem Manager... whats better for the micro limits?
..Anyways, I played about 1 hour 4 tabling NL10 I was so happy!...up 1BI. People are still monkeys at this level.
I hope to stick to my plan, I have matured a lot in the last couple of years, and really worked on my discipline in my whole life. ( for example i took serious my diet and exercise and lost over 50LBs, still working out ), got real wiht my italian classes, etc. So I really think Im finally ready to start grinding!
I am starting to think black friday was a good thing for me. I had to better myself by getting a higher paying job, and keeping the one I had as a part time gig on the weekends. With the large income boost I created a second bank account and began saving money for a live poker bankroll. I began playing about two weeks ago and have only had one losing day (which was actually my first session). The games are so good that it is actually pretty hard for me to lose. Mainly because the donks don't know how to value bet their hands. Also I play late at night and almost everyone at the table besides me is intoxicated lol!
It has been killer though because I am working 60 hours a week and then when I get off I go play poker every night for 6-8 hours which leads to 4 hours of sleep at best. Down the road a little bit I will certainly leave my part time job. For now though I will suck it up because I am banking pretty hard.
The quote unquote "regs" in these live 1/2 games couldn't break even in a 5nl game online if their life depended on it rofl! I have only seen 2 people in the games that I felt had a clue what they were doing. And just from talking with them at the table they are former online players.
liltle charlie was sitting in his chair watching the math class when mary throws a little papper ball in his head. chalie looks back at mary and she says: "headshot"
charlie dicided to get back at her so he took a book and threw it in her face shouting: "facebook"
The first thing i noticed in Russia is that girls have most awesome clevage.
Seriously like 90% of girls skinny or not have awesome boobs. Plus Russians are hot overall, its fucking heaven haha. Pity I only went for 2 weeks.
met an awesome russian chick on a plane back. she isnt that hot but we had maddest time. 2 hrs to kill in korean airport.we even had time to try to get married(jokingly), had a fight, and had mad convos. smart girl. hmmmmmmmmm
got her email.
