Brilliant post on 2+2 about Cole South and Brian Townsends downswings when someone saying dont worry they had positve years anyway

"Nothing to see here, it's a well known fact that

A) all results tracking sites are wildly inaccurate
B) everyone wins at 10ptbb/100 at the stakes that aren't tracked (used to be 25/50, now 10/20)
C) Everyone makes money staking other players
D) People are often staked for big losing sessions, but not for big winning sessions
E) Poker players dont pay tax
F) Everyone wins a lot of money on untracked Euro sites
G) They play private live games where they win millions every day of the week."

BT seems to have disappeared, anyone know what the crack is with him?

ffs FTP missed my latest $200k win at 25/50, needed that win though, was gonna have to withdraw 400k off incredunknownpokersite.com had too much on there anyways, I'm gonna e-mail PTR after I get in from the 100/200 game tonight think i'll prolly win about a milly so not gonna sell any %'s this time.

hopefully my horses will win more than 50k tonight

lol and lol@dubais 2+2 post. very true i imagine.

I'm after some advice guys. I'm getting really low about everything and thinking about turning to drugs to help solve my problems. Any views, experiences or opinions please do share ITT.

I haven't ever tried any drugs not even cannabis. Does that make me sad/a square?

Reckon you should get a drug habit when you can afford it. Drug money can go in your shirt pocket so you don't get it mixed up with you life/poker roll

me either

50/1s been going well since I got back, up 800 in 3 sessions so half out the hole for the month. Really enjoying it tbh, the games are really easy, chilled out and I'm super comfortable there, both in my game and bankroll.

HH from the 6max tonight - utg limps at 150/300, oldguy in the hijack limps along, CO makes it 1800, folds to utg who calls, old guy in hijack says "this is the best hand i've had all night" and folds. hand plays out. Oldguy claims (and he's not lying) he folded AK. "I dunno where I'm at and even on that board (which came Khigh) I wouldn't know"!

If your a nit you'll always be a nit, if your degen then you always be a degen, no matter how many times you go busto. I don't know which lifestyle is better to lead but I'm pretty sure degens have more fun than nits do. The nit lifestyle certainly has less emotional swings but where's the fun in that ?

The GIQ situation is really interesting to me and I don't even no what I think is best but as long as your honest when your knocking it in I don't see how anyone can say your a twat for not GIQ.

Finding the right balance in your life between working and having fun is what'll determine whether you'll be successful imo and it's definitely something I struggle with.

Went to see Unknown tonight after delicious chicken parmagiana at Frankie and Bennys. Film was excellent, really good idea. Must be the start of an upswing cos won both the dinner and movie flip vs Mitch which must be pretty hard to do.

Shit 50/1 games at dtd so off to gala to find some better action.
