Tom (wish i had 300 posts so i could sell my last 20% @ 1.1) Hall

you think you got it bad tats..... dtd keep spamming me about £5 stt's..........fml

seems v.good.......cant believe that only took you an hour  )

tyvm sir, like I said above... internet is a wonder for help/ tips etc... its all personal which is the idea but seems very jokey to me... almost to much..... hmmmmm

yeh i mean it'll go down brilliantly just try to deliver it.... but best man speeches tend to get all the laughs as people are already pretty merry from the wine at the tables. People will be buying you drinks all night.... the one thing that could help to break up the constant funny one liners is maybe introduce a prop.......my example was a pair of headphones to cover my grans ears when i was about to say something rude. gl tho

fyfl...though £155 is a bargain ?

Per night!

WOW double rub

seems v.good.......cant believe that only took you an hour   )

fyfl...though £155 is a bargain ?

is it standard to write best man speech the night before the wedding?!

lol, mine took like 3 weeks of prep......cant go wrong with youtube mate...

I wouldn't wear the blue stars hoody for interviews either btw.

Just to conclude, lets lose the cheeky grin, the limp lettuce handshake, and the hoody, then we should be good to go.

Mantis, you are very funny and always like to have the last laugh....but seriously have u stolen that hoody from me because i lost it time ago and would like it back ?
Kinboshi i forgot to mention that i really appreciate your advice further up in the thread, and i havn't got big hands i've got pianist hands, and i dnt know where all the banter started maybe because i said i'm big???
dungBeetle i'm guessing pleno replied to you, but i really have no idea what you're talking about.
thanks junior, yeh i'm still young, not too worried about life tbh atm i'm sure i'll be just fine no matter what some people on here think. yeh i totally agree that poker results are  hugely determined by state of mind and that a big % of my poker downswing has been when i needed to win most

update- i'm yet to hear back from that job today so i'm guessing it's a no

What did you do In university/what kind of route would you ideally like to go down? You can do anything in the gang industry doesn't have to be related at all to poker.. Accountancy... Law... Receptionist.. Hr.. Anything. Can have a look tomorrow and let you know in the thread what's available.

Acting and film studies...i feel anything in media would suit me best. Sweet, might have just secured my 2nd interview......

watch this space


HAHA

as we all know about tourney variance it's just far higher than i ever realised....plus full tilt screwed me.....and pleno i'm open to any ideas....like i said, this was my first proper interview and i'm sure i will be going to many more if i don't get this one (find out tomoz, but 6 other people applied and 2 of them already worked in another department )

I'm not experienced in an interview environment but if you take the attitude that you've displayed in this thread into a job interview I can see you looking for a while.

Re-read the thread and actually I think that was pretty harsh, so I apologise. I guess I misconstrued some of your posts on first reading.

gl with the job thing but if you made decent money in the last 3 years why don't you just keep on going, cut down your expenses and end up with a lot more money?

I will most probably still be playing poker as a hobby as i love it more than badminton(close, actually) and pizza (also, v.close) but all my close friends have good jobs after graduating, and i just feel like now i need to grow out of the pro poker player thing(which was obv good when i had money/was binking, going on holidays etc) and find a stable income.

I guess, I guess I was kind of a dick and then anti railed you from then on in updates etc. Sorry though.

Sorry for even posting it, guess it was bad of me. How about working in the poker industry and then you wouldn't need to lie, it would be beneficial if anything

Enjoying the diary Tom.

lol.....now i'm going to get slated for making another comment box when i said i wasnt going too..............
I mean I'm open too any ideas for jobs..... i mean i'd like to think my c.v still looks v.good except for my poker career, in which i've had some amazing times.
no worries pleno... you at the chipleader tourney? I'll buy you a drink if i can scrape together some coins

Haha sorry, gran priz's. We had been playing cash and losing on average 100 a hand for an hour and then when the 6nax comp started I ended up getting moved to your table, I remember you saying some quite ba stuff and was getting some unneeded rub downs and comments web I was simply just trying to donate like a fish. I I was a normal local fish I would definitely have been out off going back.

Obviously was just that one day as you seem popular with all the regs.

Gl with the diary!

jeeeez....that sucks for me! The last thing i would want is to come across/give unnecessary rub downs to anyone. I mean that hoddie isn't even mine lol it's Ben Dobsons......i think i must have borrowed it from his as i didnt have a spare t-shirt as i'm from peterborough..... also, if this was near the beginning of my poker playing i sincerely apologise and i have learnt alot since then. This isn't supposed to be a diary and i just wanted to create this thread to get advice from anyone that's been in a similar position to me that have now landed a job they want. I have acheived this, so it's probably best that i dont post again.... because if it wasn't for alex whom read this and replied you'd still have the same opinion?

Might e a different person but it was a guy called Tom, blonde hair wearing a blue stars hoody and was the first ever grab pros that dtd ran an was at the 6nax side event. Long time ago and maybe not even you.

sounds like me........... grab pro's ? i'm more strawberry blonde

you wear a blue stars hoody yeh?

LOL i have done yes.......carry on..........

thanks alex, and i don't even know alex that well.............
