Yer, like born said, obviously he shouldn't/shouldn't be allowed to much while there is still action, but not much you can do about that.
As for having to show your cards, i also think it will differ from venue to venue. The norm would be show to claim i would imagine.

Easily top 5 series for me, the amount of subtle and genuinely genius extras they have added into every episode is amazing. Yeah, some ep's did drag and were a bit boring but they were followed with an absolute beast soon after. Question about the ending: Surely as careful as Walter was with hiding every little detail from hank, it's a bit unlikely that he'd leave that book on his toilet?!
Bit disappointed unless I've missed something?!
I definitely believe Walt has done this on purpose, as he had left it at his bedside table at all times before this, got to be a set up of whats to come right?

Will be keeping one eye on this thread, as your line of work and Univ. subject choice is interesting in itself. However, im not sure grinding 9man SNG's 1 hour per day is gonna get you any where, saying that i can't what else you can play for 1 hour a day, other than NL zoom. Which you have clearly stated you do not want to play So, with the info you have giving and your plans. GLGLGL

Great great first few days in Budapest.
Day 1
I got here, sorted Internet out, it didn't work. Fell asleep and woke up in the morning - riveting!
Day 2
Explored the city. So so hot, around 38 degrees. Stopped every 6/7 bars and had a soft drink and got to know the city. Went home and showered and met a guy who was in similar situation to me. We went to a very nice restaurant and then to a few bars. It's just so so so so different to the uk. In the uk you have a bunch of guys together with tops going down to their chests fully steroided up and with some intentions of sleeping with girls and girls with generally little banter or if you speak to them in a bar they think you want the same as the roided guys. Here it's a lot different every bar is full of people not actually from Budapest ad everybody is sharing stories and is in a similar situation.
The bars are mostly outside, I didn't realise there was no roof for around 3 hours! But generally great ambience and whilst there is music you can still have an actual cover station. Everything feels safe and there is no trouble and nobody wanting aggro.
Day 3
Generally when I go out in te uk I tell myself I won't go out again in a long time. But the next day I was lookin forward to socialising already.
I stayed in the house for a long time then went to play football with the guy from te night before and a us pro poker player and a bunch of Hungarians. We won comprehensively and I had arranged to meet a friend 1 hour later. So quick turn around and we went to the Danube (river in Budapest) we went perhaps 1 mile further and sat for 2 hours on top of this tunnel with the best view of Budapest you could imagine. All lit up its really really nice.
We went to get dinner at 1am ish and played some lodden thinks where we asked the waitress how hot she though sonebody was (random friends on fb) on a scale of 1-100 and bet on it. I did chunks but when a very nice meal is 5 pounds it's quite ok.
I get Internet tody which im not see is a good thing! I've been so attached to the Internet over the last 3 years that having a break from it has felt quite liberating.
There is a poker community of around 100 guys here so will likely meet more of these guys over te next few weeks and months. Adam picken should be here next week too which should be good. There's a lot of space left in the house here so I anybody wants to come and chill or grind some of wcoop you are more than welcome.
Sounds sick, and genuinely very different from the UK which i should think makes a nice change. Hopefully the novelty doesn't wear off to soon/at all? GL with the rest of the FTOPS and in the WCOOOOOOOP!
