They're turbos so it always comes down to push fold anyway so yeah will mostly be about the cards and situations.

** stars. Boring BS 30 game sssion where i should have won every $ on th sit but ended up braking even. The way people play in the last 9 is just beyond comprehension. The most basic braincell particle could work out that what you are doing is wrong, but these clowns get there, get there and get there a bit more. Absolutly fuming might have to go out and get blasted tonight.

How can you earn more if the games don't fill as quickly and it takes more time?

Furthermore the fish will still make stupid calls irrespective of the timing it will just take longer.

Absolutly **ing ridiculous run bad situation today AGAIN. God im starting to sound like arbboy, arbboy trust me you dont even know the meaning of runbad. The pots i was losing was incredible. Every big blind i shoved on had AQ and i never got there with whatever ** i was shoving. Every all in i called they had Krag and got there. Another losing 50+ game session and im just gona jack it in. No point wasting my time (over 40 hours this week) to fall victim to what must be some sort of money recycling program stars are employing. 62 games played.

Stop moaning.

Or stop playing, you don't have the mental attitude to do something like this.

You are about 10% the way through and have done nothing but moan and threaten to pack it in.

Lenny, If you don't manage to do this, for what ever reason, Then you'll always know, deep down inside, that you are not good at pooohka.




Quite a bit of motivation eh ?

What you gonna do ? throw in the towel ? blame bad luck ? or pull yourself together ?


In a few months time....are you going to be holding your head up high, with that inner glow of some one who know that they faced a challenge and overcame the obstacles to succeed.....

or are you going to ablsolutely know that you can't stick to a plan, and also know, that you don't have what it takes to beat the burger flippers in $6 mtt's.


Your choice, your life, good luck with it.

This whole thread has been bizarre from start to finish.

1. You have a "professional poker player of 5 years" asking to be staked for £400

2. He touts on the Betfair forum rather than be staked from one of a dozen successful previous stakers

3. He seemed happy in a previous post with hitting a target of $2800 profit over 3 months. With 50% of that being returned to his backers, that would net him around £850 for 3 months work. Even a minimum wage job would net him significantly more than that for the same hours yet all his "mates" on the thread are actively encouraging him to take the much lower paying poker route instead.

The whole thing is just bizarre.
