Read notes and resource from Marius
Listen DC podcast on Poker Health
Stop overeating
Improve HUD
No caffeine, Spirits/water>beer when douching it up at nightclubs.
I've never done a thing like this before. I've drunk-played poker a few times before, but I've always stopped after a couple of hands because I knew it's no good.
Semi-tilted now, but what can you do. I'll just have to re-grind it at NL25. It's gonna take a while though.
i jynx myself all the time but still no inevitable downswing.. yet. im still playing the 35$ 300 chips ultra turbo hu sngs. will post september graph at the end of the month.
Finally off cooler feels great!!!by aznricebeast, September 24
Went down almost 1K in .25/.5 finally today it has turned around made some back plus I got a piece of the BBJP on wed. Plus I aced my calc test today all in all a good day! Love it when things work how they are supposed to
Does anyone live near the San Fernando valley (Southern California) who would wanna possibly meet up and talk about hands/coach? I'm starting to play NL25 and I feel like I have no idea how to review my play to see if I'm even learning. I don't know what I should be focused on/leaks/etc. Or if I'm even a decent player.
None of my friends play poker so I have no one to talk to about hands/sessions/etc.
Just had to share these guys... two ivy league white boys from Cornell - Kinetics is the rapper, One Love is a classical pianist turned producer/dj/mixer. They originally made the melody and wrote the hook to B.o.B's hit "Airplanes" and now they just got signed as songwriters to Warner.
One Love's tracks are hot and Kinetics spits straight flame. Just listen through some of my favs and pay attention to the lyrics. Everything else by them is sweet as well. Enjoy guys!

Wow I'm one of the new school Starcraft players (I started playing online in 2004), I never knew you've done more than invented the worker transfer
Simply put, StarCraft was very much a blank slate upon its release. Ideas as seemingly simple as transferring groups of workers to newly built expansions (rather than building them one at a time) were groundbreaking. It took a player the caliber of Miguel "Maynard" Bombach (a former Age of Empires player), probably the most dominant American player of all time, to invent a concept as simple as the worker-transfer. And it changed the game forever.
Dudey, an accomplished old school StarCraft player also known as ilnp, had this to say about Maynard at his peak:
"You guys have no idea what dominance is -- you weren't around when the game was new. The only people who could come close to Maynard's sort of dominance was Grrr.... and BoxeR. We're not talking win most everything, win a lot, impressive play. We're talking most of the top players were directly influenced by his play and his play alone, after a long period in which many refused to play him because they swore he cheated. We're talking literally invincible in even 2 on 2 play with shitty allies against every other top player in the world in practice, ladder, and tournament games."
Maynard's thorough dominance, borne out mainly on the Kali server and before modern competition had truly taken off, has thus largely been forgotten. He is remembered more for the worker-transfer bearing his name than his God-like status in the first year of Brood War.
watched first 4 episodes when i was in LA last year then completely forgot about this gem.
just downloaded 1 and 2nd seasons. acting is great, style is very similar to shield, dylan mcdermont and his co stars are very good here. check it out if you love shield and or the wire.
