Won the p5's open on starsby matdon460, September 02
LOL, so I got bored and started to look around on the internet. Saw that the p5's open had started so I late regged and ended up binking it for $3.1k. I ran super hot most of the tourney which made it quite nice. I like how this is the first tourney I played in a while and I win it. Guess this makes up some of the shitty days when I'd reg everything from 2 to 830.
sorry guys this will be the last of these stupid threads of mine. im jst gonna go back to stars and do a vpp suicide mission. too tired to play poker atm. my absolute poker money (around 3k )for your stars
Election time in Sweden!by DustySwedeDude, September 02
And the leaders of Men, our best & brightest, the power-drunk custodians of this lustrace, can best be described as a criminally insane school of piranha with an unquenchable thirst for the lifeblood of the innocent. On a path of destruction they shred everything they see, mocking their exsanguinating victims, offering them “hope and change” as they whimper and bleed out. They talk of high principle but they lie. - Aha of interestingtimesmagazine.com.
Not that I know that he talked about the election, but still.
I've got small bets down on the right wing coalition to win it and the social democrats to get less then 30.5% of the votes. Bad odds on the first one, had I gotten more then 1.5 I'd probably put down like 5k on it. As is I only put down an amount so that I can give whatever I win to my sister and laugh when she tries to figure out if she should be happy or sad considering the election results.
This is my final offer to the world of being staked. This is an opportunity to buy my mercy. I will not be staked lightly or by someone that I do not already like and certainly not without favorable terms. I understand what my image is like right now, so I will be slightly lenient on terms. Hold your peace if you do not make an offer else I will not think favorably upon you.
Had some more downswing so I took the day off from poker. In my bordem I ended up writing out my views on atheism and figured I'd post it in the unedited rough horrible form it's in now for whoever to read if they feel.
Why I am an Atheist. By a very bored person.
Some people don't understand why I am an Atheist, so due to boredom I have decided to write out my views on humanity and religion. I was raised without any religious influence in my life as both my parents are agnostic. This led me to be skeptical of religion as I grew up. It's hard to convince someone over the age of 11 that there is an all knowing entity in the sky that oversees everything. Perhaps what made religion such a hard swallow for me while I was growing up was that people who try to convert others or are adamant about their religion enough to talk about it openly are the most devout. They rarely have any real understanding of other religions or science. This leads to a very monotonous talk where any logical question like: "Besides being "the truth" what makes your religion better than say Hinduism, Buddhism, or Taoism?", "If we are created by an all knowing creator then why are we so poorly designed?", or "If humans are the special race of the universe and all that your God cares about then why did it make the universe infinite?" are simply rebuffed by "I don't know". An insightful conversation about the nature of religion or God is seldom achievable. Plus there is the high probability of offending the other person which shuts off all constructive conversation and replaces it with awkward silence for the rest of the remaining flight (or whatever other reason I had for being next to this zealot). Due to many awkward flights I now just do the smart thing and avoid religious talks with strangers. This is somewhat upsetting since religion is such a fascinating conversation.
A few years ago there was a surge of Atheist literature led by Sam Harris and Richard Dawkins. The message they tried to convey is that it was time for Atheists to speak up and speak out against religion. What this movement ended up doing was making little headway into a reasonable fight against religion and instead turned many peaceful Atheists into self-righteous boneheads who violently opposed any religious thought due to what they read in a few books. Close minded "new Atheists" often did tremendous damage to the Atheist image by insulting and demeaning any religious person they spoke to. Hurting the Atheist image was hard also, we are already the most mistrusted ground in the country, even more so then Muslims. I feel this mistrust and seemingly mutual hatred between religious and atheist is due to misunderstanding of each other's views.
Religious people most often distrust Atheists with the thought of "What morals do they have if they don't believe in a God?" or "If there is no afterlife and only human punishments for your deeds then why don't you just do whatever the fuck you want and to hell with everyone else?". The latter I was actually asked my senior year of high school by a man who went on to be a NASA engineer. As an Atheist I feel compelled to answer where we (edit: we should be changed to I) get our (edit: should be changed to my) morals from.
The core to (edit: instert my personal)Atheist (edit: Atheist should be humanist) beliefs are:
1. Humanism-to do whatever possible to maximize the well being and happiness of other humans and organisms around you.
2. Tolerance-to not discriminate against a person for any reason other than if their personal actions are hurting someone. To respect others beliefs even if they are not the same as yours.
3.Empathy necessarily towards other human beings and animals if the person so chooses. Open mindedness is key for this to be successfully applied.
4.Quest for understanding- A mission to understand all questions in the universe, scientific, philosophical, or other.
These four ideals encompass all of what I believe to be the main structure of Atheist social beliefs. The 4 commandments of Atheism if you will. Atheists uphold these ideas based off an easy concept. If there is no other life then we must make the most of the life we have, further it is our responsibility as sentient creatures to ensure that future entities have the same or better life then we have. To do harm to another individuals well being or overall level of happiness is the utmost evil. All religious people will certainly agree with this line of thought as it is the same basic line of thought taught by all religions. The only difference between religious thought and Atheist thought on these principles is the punishment/reward for not obeying them. Religions belief an all knowing entity will punish you while Atheists think your punishment is that you are perceived as a horrible human being. That hopefully explains what an Atheists views on can be summed up as. Further any person can see that these views are the same as those that are taught in all major religions. It is an intuitive argument that if all the major religions came from different societies but share these common humanitarian principals perhaps it is due to these principals being naturally ingrained on humans since following them leads to the most efficient use of resources and fastest growth of civilization.
Meanwhile Atheists who hate religion do so because they have come to the conclusion that ALL people who are religious are flawed because of it. They view most religious people as intellectually inferior solely due to religion. Further they have come to the conclusion that since religion produces more harm than good it needs to be removed from humanity and that the fastest most efficient way to remove it is to argue it with whatever religious person they are having a talk to. Usually Atheists of this variety will make claims like "most wars are caused by religion" or "it's religions fault for the bad things in the world". These are very short sighted claims. Upon examination almost all wars they claim are caused by religion are in fact caused by greed of the wealthy or power wielding class. Instead of arguing wars are caused by religion it is much more constructive to argue that religion is a tool used by the power hungry to manipulate people into harming others for material gains. That religions crime towards humanity is that it limits our species potential for scientific and social growth. This view however is unfortunately very rarely argued. Another adverse trend of militant Atheists is to overlook how religion effects each person they talk to. Many times they will tell anyone they have a conversation with that they should not be religious. This is ill-advised, it is often impossible to convert someone who is religious to being an Atheist solely by a conversation in which you attack one of their most valued beliefs. It is much better to engage in logical well manned conversation which helps both sides come to respect each other's different beliefs rather than despise each other.
After basically busting Nanonokos roll yesterday (look for him to drop stakes for a while), I found this chubby looking fella named Jorge Arias at mah 50PLO tables. When i have the munchies I eat PS pros, nomnomnom.
For serious tho, this guy blows donkey dick.

and who plays sc2 during poker breaks? i do and it gets me more worked up than poker. hate reapers and proxy gateways. still waiting on that terran+toss nerf.......... yes i qq hard
Not for me but for my man Uwe Boll. Just watched some new movie he wrote/directed/produced called Rampage. I netflixed this thing last night and I have to say WOW! Uwe finally made a good movie! I'll let you research the details, but basically this guy is one of the worst movie directors of all time. But maybe his problem has just been doing hollywood's bidding. This little gem is his own work, and I gotta say he did an outstanding job.
The movie is some psychotic revenge thriller were this guy decides to go on a random killing spree just cuz. But it's highly realistic, both in its violence and execution. By that I mean the plot elements and strategy our "hero" goes through to pull it off are very believable.
The film's half way point begins a 60 minute continuous shooting spree with no end in sight, almost to the point of getting boring because he's just killing so many people without purpose. But there are a few interstitials throughout to break up the gun violence and give you a moment to rest and think about why he's doing this.
Anyway, an entertaining film for a freebie netflix rental such as myself, and a shocking turnaround from Uwe. I'm very interested to see what else he's capable of if he just starts sticking to his own shit.
I haven't really grinded poker online or poker for that matter in general, for probably almost a year. I've been goofing around with tournaments and random stuff like that but nothing too serious. This last month I started playing again thanks to a stake (thanks Sam!) with the conditions I have to play 50k hands in the month (something I've never done in my entire life LOL) otherwise the deal is off.
So after starting off pretty slow and falling 15k hands behind pace I grinded it out at the end of the month and went on a nice run at the end too, which was definitely really nice.
Anyway heres my graph (25NL + 50NL for the last like 1k hands and about $250 of the profit lol) I started playing on UB then moved to FTP after about 15k hands and played FR on both. I switched to 25NL and 50NL RUSH at like the 35k hand mark and then proceeded to own. So probably going to permenantly stay at 50NL RUSH and move through the limits at RUSH.
Lowered my aggression at about 10,000 hand mark. Note the switch of the red and blue lines. Then ran on a nice 15 BI heater and after the 30000 hand mark I've been running pretty bad, which is causing me to play bad. I've been running into some gross set over set coolers, and unfortunately sometimes 150bb+ effective, not to mention getting almost no action with big hands. I have to put more focus into quitting on sessions that are going awful and sessions that are going extraordinary. I'm sure it's just temporary run bad. Luckily, rakeback has been very nice and comfortably keeps me at a solid roll. I still have a lot to learn
Was sittin on my couch today, super high, decide im too fuked up to play, so ill just browse los lobbies. Look at my normal 50PLO games and Nanonoko is at 6 of em. Insta join all of em! HE is cool, we are bff.

I just wanna start a poll and see who thinks they taste different when all the color is is just food colorin and no different flavors so help me prove him wrong LP
had a decent two months for 50nl and some 100nl, close to 7k total(inc rb) left stars coz i wanna make more.start playing then i realize software is shit, not motivated playing these shitty sites, i miss using stoplosscripts,280fpp sattys, tableninja and my telescope(sometimes), either table size is crap, unreal timebanks, loldonks but it feels worse when they win coz i feel "this site is so shit and donks still hit 2 outerz!" i also noticed missing the french/italians in euro sites, theyre a lot less juicer than before, making the whole move of transferring to eurodonks pointless. this is the time of year when i make a dumb decision and move back to stars and try to pull of 200kvpps or soemthing towards december and lose just as much as I can make in milestones and feel terrible during christmas time. imma deposit 100bi for nl100 and see if i can beat it now ( without any basis why, just coz i HAZ 100bi for it lol) ok after today im going for it. not going to post results coz its not gonna be pretty for sure lol. gl to me
