Hi guys

Ket, Nolan, Andrew, Baal, list goes on whats everyone doing?

Anyone making 300k every year in cards still? Curious how poker turned out after I left.

Hope everyone is well.

did you become the perfect human being?

poker is really quite dry and tough these days-check the hand histories section of hands i've been posting of 25/50 crusher's and you'll see how crazy the game has become, I've been doing very well playing on softer sites than pokerstars. Pokerstars has higher rake and no rakeback now as well, lol.

check this memorable hand i posted a couple weeks ago lolol https://www.liquidpoker.net/h/1076365

Thats awesome to hear stroggoz. Whats a good site to just casually play? Hows your $/hour looking for the year?

As to whether my ego has ascended into space, not just yet, but I am trying very hard to still be the best at everything I do..

Most of my energy goes to my startup and my kids though.

What's your startup about? GLGL with it!

results from 04 july to mid-august, i only came back to poker 2 months ago, i got a 4 year degree while you were away (maths and philosophy)

Dont understand paying to learn philosophy though, but hopefully that was worthwhile for you.

lol sup wobbly.

i randomly encountered an asian with an australian accent a few weeks back and was thinking about you, even more random i decided to check LP today.

glad you're doing well and grats on the kids. kids really are the best!

i'm mostly retired, i live in the woods, i finished a masters' degree recently and have some investments. lately i'm thinking of opening a barber shop just because I can, might even pursue a barbering license.

if you use watsapp or discord shoot me a PM if you'd like. me and my mrs. have actually been considering a holiday in Melbourne for quite a while and if I do ever make it there it'd be fun to grab a coffee or whatever.

Use to be online mistakes grinder pro on stars/tilt from 05-black friday(2012?) Never quite made it past 5/10.
Now playing 5/10 live at commerce, CA and also building a nice roll on ignition(previously bovada) playing 1/2 zoom poker Lols. Sometimes 1/2 doesn't run and it will be .5/1$. Games have dried up quite a bit. With TV and all the training media. I assimilated and did what I could to survive and stay with the curve and joined the upswing poker crew and now I engage with them on Facebook groups for poker hands n stuff. Haven't browsed lp as much since and just grinding out life.

Besides mma/political threads this fourm is pretty dry

You'll probably think I'm joking but PartyPoker is legitimately a very nice site to play on nowadays...

Welcome back~

That sucks about the teenager who scammed you. How did you get mixed up with him in the first place?

Sounds like the life man~ I use wechat for social media and use facebooking rarely. When you come over send me an email tian@gogosu.com

I played unranked with him for 1-2 years almost every night. One day i got a message from his brother that he was sucking at school and that I shouldnt play with him, instead I convinced them to let him go pro. We signed a contract that was 10% of winnings until 18 and I would train him and get him into pro teams, I first got him into IG then I got him into OG (arguable best team last season).

He paid me out when he won small tournaments but after he won the boston major he blocked me on wechat and facebook. I CBF suiing him atm because im running a startup.

Such is life aye? Its ok wasn't too much money. 60k USD only.

I'm not making as much as my best years, but overall I'd say income is pretty equal. (Mostly given I have invested my poker money decently) I do however have massive increase in costs due to family and education costs for my kids.

I quit poker because it was unfulfilling and I felt I reached the top of what I could in poker. Black friday happening was a good excuse for me to quit and do something useful in life.

Hey wobbly, what is your company about?

I continued to play poker, was sponsored by Stars for many years, poker nowadays is tough, the skill keeps going up progressivly I'd say a solid 1knl player today would be the best player in the world compared to like 2012

It’s basically Uber but for people who want to win in competitive games.

You can hire coach or someone much better than you and play games with you.

That sounds awesome, time for me to come back and donate some money. I read some fuss before about nlhu being solved by bots is that true? How about 6max and fr

lol... i'm directly involved with the pro dota scene (i'm coaching Team Secret atm). That's too bad what happened with you and Ana.

Haha thats awesome man. New team looks good GL with that.

Yea I really put in a lot of work with him, gave him free rent, food, clothes, setup, training for 3+ months in my house only to be stabbed in the back. Kids these days. I have a signed contract though so I can always take up legal action when I have time.

I follow the Dota scene pretty closely, that's terrible to hear that Ana is a scammer over a 10% cut. I'm still grinding poker, but only live poker. I would like to transition out of poker in five years or so I think, but have no idea what I would do. I enjoy investing/learning about companies and business a lot though. GL with your business!

Good to hear you're still alive and playing cards man, I hope its as profitable as ever!

The ana thing really did me in last year I didnt see the stab coming at all Strange thing is OG sided with him but you know what thats over for now, I'll sue his ass when I have the time, I have all the proof anyway.

What was your experience as a data scientist? - Who was this for and what quals did you have? - Also by PM do you mean portfolio manager? - I'm currently working for a large super fund in Investment Operations (only as an analyst small fry). Great to hear you're still doing well.

what's your site called if u don't mind sharing.

only one i know from AUS is esportsmogul.

That's really sad to hear about OG.Ana.

Sue his ass. You deserve your money. Also, OG fucked me on fantasy points during TI so they can go suck a dick :D.

I was a data scientist for and product manager for freelancer.com

Basically analyzing conversion funnels and doing ab tests. Turning the data insights into product adjustments and coming up with ways to increase metrics! It was very similar to what poker is in a lot of ways!

It’s gogosu or ????. We don’t serve our side of China though and dota2 is not that big on it.

Hahaha I’m still a fan of OG and a part of me will always be a fan of Ana. I was his first ever fan!

I can sue the contract is co signed by his mum.

Hahah sorry to disappoint you ;( i trade digital currency now and only play poker if there's a big house game that's worth the time. I'm still involved in poker though and will forever be a poker pro at heart. Glad to hear you doing well!

You making Fatcash on them juicy coins?

I hope you got out before the china sell off last couple of days

Hey Wobbly,

I see lots of the old poker regs i used to play with are all here!

I'm also out of poker these days, now running the e-sports department for one of the major asian sports books. I see you are in the esports coaching industry, I'll shoot you a pm with my contact details as it always good to have more contacts in the industry, especially in asia.

All the best.

Always thought you were a 2p2er!

"Hi guys"

Hi Wobbly, glad to hear you'r doing well!

Hey TT, strangest thing I was just thinking about how I could have forgotten to ask about you!

What are you doing now?

hi Wobbly,

cool to see that you and so many others have moved on from poker and doing awesome things with your lives. I'm in a somewhat similar spot to Mez, although on a much smaller scale. Playing lots of live poker in private games around where I live and am in school working on a business degree.

Mostly these days I'm playing some form of PLO whether it be 4 card Hi, 4 card H/L, or 5+ cards of the same variants. It's crazy to reminisce about the days when you and I played a lot of mistakes 6m NL and think about the paths a lot of those regs have taken...

best of luck with your future endeavors!

GL to you TimDawg, sounds like an awesome carefree life. Good luck with everything.

P.S you don't need to wait for the degree to finish to start a business !
