I've been lucky enough to have become the student of LP's own mbsalsa, aka loosefer. He has given me alot of advice, and rules to follow as i play, to help get myself out of this degenerate funk that i've been in.

I'll post the rules that I have to follow, or risk losing my teacher and my poker career.

For anyone else that is suffering from a degenerate mindset, this could potentially help you as well.

First off let me iterate that I'm done with HU cashgames until my bankroll is atleast $2,500, but preferably atleast $4,000.

I'm also going to be playing on atleast 50 buy-ins, but striving to have atleast 70 buy-ins for each limit as a cushion.

And heres my new bible to follow for poker;
play on 50+ bi (Cashgames / tournaments)
when moving up / taking a shot, set a tight stop loss
(4 buy-ins move down until u make it back)
then u can take another shot
If i lose 5 bi in 1 day = QUIT
SET time limits for ur sessions; 2 hrs max. (only stretch it if
the game is perfect and u have a large edge)
take ur time
dont focus on the money
focus on ur play
and winning EV from your opponents

the money isn't real, and is real at the same time. respect it.
focus on raping ur opponents.

you can honestly say that "I'm playing to make good decisions and win money

doesn't matter neccessaRILY IF YOU'RE winning or losing
highonlifesinz88 (7:56:14 PM): its about the other playersd
highonlifesinz88 (7:56:17 PM): if there is some cash cow
highonlifesinz88 (7:56:21 PM): with 200 bb
highonlifesinz88 (7:56:29 PM): and has huge leaks
highonlifesinz88 (7:56:31 PM): I'd stick around
when i hit nl25 cut down on tables
work on ur play, quality not quantity

but you have a lot of leaks (in discipline, patience, and play)

fORTGET ABOUT THE WORD "GAMBLE"
DONT use poker as an outlet to gamble,

These are my rules for my first lesson with mbsalsa, and im sure we will be adding more day in day out.

I've come to the realization that discipline is pretty much the only thing that has been holding me back, as well as some aggression that needs to be toned down.

Flame as u want,

I want to succeed badly,
and will do just about anything to make it to become a 1/2 - 3/6 grinder by the end of the year.

GL everyone,

Ryan (DReaMe)

why create more bullshit rules you aren't going to respect?

fuck I should just sell some of my Pokemon cards, if no one stakes that is what I will have to do - lostaccount

good luck and I hope you really do take your own rules to heart.

if we catch you on HU tables and take a screenshot, you need to pay us 50 bucks. That'll definitely keep you off of the HU tables knowing that you're on NeillyHUWatch.

It is a little different this time tho, since breaking the rules means losing out on a good opportunity.

Good luck mate, and props to salsa.

Researchers used brain scans to show that when straight men looked at pictures of women in bikinis, areas of the brain that normally light up in anticipation of using tools, like spanners and screwdrivers, were activated.
