I was thinking about it for a while and I think I want to coach people. Mainly not for money, but for my own benefit in thinking out my own poker process.
That being said, I think I can offer anyone from 5nl-50nl some really solid advice on how to improve from those stakes and have the right poker mindset to climb mount robusto.
Given that it's my first teaching lessons ever, I guess I should charge like ~$35/hr and $150 for 5 hours. So give me a PM if you're interested.
I dunno, that seems to be really cheap haha, but I guess I should start somewhere. XD
nl200 is going well for me, up ~900, but most of that has been run good and crushing fish. I spewed $200 playing the 7-game, which really made me realize that I'm terribad at stud games other than razz.
I'm also a huge fish at PLO, but don't tell anyone. I randomly splash around nl25 and nl50 PLO games sometimes for fun. Apparently I'm a lifetime winner at PLO.
Run good guys. (i'm mostly recovered from my deathly illness)
This month is weird poker wise. I'm ok with it though, making a smallish profit so far.
I went jogging with an old friend of mine today. She used to be kind of chubby but now she looked really good in that aspect. Reminded me of something some guy on some forum I used to post on years ago said. Something like; "My favourite kind of girl is the kind with who's really skinny but still has fairly big boobs. Because they'll look huge!". Oh, and it was actually nice to run a little bit. Haven't been doing that in probably like 2 years so that was a bit surprising. I'll try to do it 2-3 times a week for the rest of the summer I guess.
Also "The Wind", Warren Zevon's last album (he wrote the songs and recorded it while dying from cancer) just came out on Spotify (in Sweden at least). It's a really nice bunch of songs. The guy might be one of my favourite song writers. Some geems from this album:
From dirty life and times
Gets a little lonely, folks,
you know what I mean
I'm looking for a woman with low self-esteem
To lay me out and ease my worried mind
While I'm winding down my dirty life and times
From Numb As A Statue
I'm gonna beg, borrow or steal
Some feelings from you
I'm gonna beg, borrow or steal
So I can have some feelings too
I don't care if it's superficial
You don't have to dig down deep
Just bring enough for the ritual
Get here before I fall asleep
There are also other songs from the album that I like a lot. The beautiful "She's too good for me"[b], Zevon's last try to write a song about, ehh, a girl that's too good for him comes to mind. It's a bit like Dylan's "All I really want to do" except it's softer and in my opinion actually better written (which says a lot, Dylan is a great song writer). Yea, sure it's overly sentimental and everything, but what the hell. I can live with that once in a while. [b]Prison Grove sounds a lot like some Johnny Cash cover, in a good way, and it has all the feeling in the world. Lastly Rub Me Raw is some fairly cool blues.
Overall the CD is obviously his last goodbye to family, friends, fans and loved ones and I feel that this fact makes it ok that much of the lyrics are, despite retardedly good, really sentimental.
Oh, and he's version of "knocking on heaven's door" is one of the best I've ever heard.
Hey
I'm rato and I was reading the forum since few months but never posted anything. I'm going to post hands over here and hopefully get some advices from you guys to get better.
Currently taking a shot at nl25. See you soon.
I smell the odor of mendacity. The average American refuses to accept that republicans are at war against the working-class, which is why they vehemently oppose reform (financial and healthcare), unions, public education, government oversight, wage hikes, worker rights, access to higher education, middleclass tax relief, and, in general, any legislation that would jeopardize the continuation of a credit-dependent, employer exploited, unhealthy, downtrodden, marginalized, underpaid, debt-laden, undereducated and permanent class of laborers. Similar to sharecroppers, it’s in republican’s best interest to keep the working-class hopeless, oppressed, and undereducated. Republicans staunchly supported the Wall Street bailout to protect their own assets, but opposed the automobile industry bailout, which employs thousands of middleclass Americans
The republican aristocracy opposes any kind of governmental oversight that will interfere with their pursuit of exploitive capitalism, which is why they want to abolish or privatize the EPA, FAA, FDA, SSA and Departments of Agriculture, Transportation, Interior, Health and Human Services, and Education. Just like feudal lords, Republicans require a formidable army to protect their financial interests, which is why they defend unrestrained military spending. The Iraq War will cost well over $9 trillion, while health insurance for every American would cost $1 trillion. Republicans want to keep America angrily divided by class and race, which is why they vehemently oppose any legislative action that would eliminate the status quo and elevate the standard of living for average Americans.
Obama saves America from economic obliteration, and conservatives demonize him. Republicans deregulate Wall Street, oil companies, and other financial and mortgage instruments, leading to economic and ecological disaster, and conservatives are quiet, blame Obama, and call Obama’s efforts to save America “misguided.” Republican disgust for working-class Americans (and their unwavering support for big business) is patently obvious. Recently, lock-step republicans: 1) voted to allow Wall Street banks trading in risky sub-prime derivatives to retain FDIC liability insurance at taxpayer expense, 2) voted against adding tougher home-mortgage standards to the Truth-in-Lending Act (which would have outlawed the no-documentation “liar loans” that played a major role in the sub-prime mortgage meltdown), 3) voted against underwriting standards aimed at banning loan originators from steering borrowers toward mortgages they cannot afford after teaser and adjustable-interest rates expire, 4) voted against increasing the liability cap for oil companies from $75 million to $10 billion, opting instead to have taxpayers pay for oil spills, and 4) voted against the creation of the Clean Energy Consortium, an initiative designed to focus on developing private sector renewable energy sources. Republicans also voted against restricting debit-card transaction fees, a move that would have helped small, “mom and pop” merchants, not Wall Street fat-cats. Republicans: Protectors of Big Business.

And a bit more on Joe Barton and his BS apology to BP, this time from the Daily Show:
obv i have to have a very small edge ( yes, i still belive i have an edge over my tables ;o ) to have such a terrible run
and thank universe for 50% RB :O
i think my biggest flaw is that many times i fly on 'autopilot' insted of thinking hard on what opponent has, maybe i should play 30-40 min. sessions...
When BP CEO Tony Hayward testified before Congress this morning, many expected to hear him apologize for the disaster his company has caused. Instead, GOP Congressman Joe Barton was the one saying he was sorry -- to BP.
In his opening statement, Barton, the top Republican on the committee overseeing the oil spill and its aftermath, delivered a personal apology to the oil giant. He said the $20 billion fund that President Obama directed BP to establish to provide relief to the victims of the oil disaster was a "tragedy in the first proportion."
Other Republicans are echoing his call. Sen. John Cornyn said he "shares" Barton's concern. Rep. Michele Bachmann said that BP shouldn't agree to be "fleeced." Rush Limbaugh called it a "bailout." The Republican Study Committee, with its 114 members in the House, called it a "shakedown."
Let's be clear. This fund is a major victory for the people of the Gulf. It's a key step toward making them whole again. BP has a responsibility to those whose lives and livelihoods have been devastated by the disaster. And BP oil executives don't deserve an apology -- the people of the Gulf do.
The past week or so I've been really struggling with insomnia. And during the day I've been stuck in a strong malaise. Just feeling completely.. spent. I don't know if I'm getting sick or what. Hopefully it'll pass soon..
More importantly, I finally watched Rounders LOL. It was quite entertaining, Teddy KGB was hilarious and its funny to see where "maney" came from. Oddly I feel a bit more motivated.
Poker hasn't really improved or what not yet, winnings wise, but my volume has been small since my last blog because I've been seriously unable to concentrate or even stay awake for more than a couple of hours on end. I have been playing better the bit I have played, though. And I really appreciate all of the offers of assistance and I still have to take a couple of you up on a sweat and random hand discussion.
