Watched the replay of Marc's Sunday Million FT, and wow it was one of the most funny/tilting things ever!
SPOILERAfter a round of the table, Marc coolered the other chip leader to build a stack of 38m, and the rest of the table had 29m between them! He then just bullied them into submission! I'm sure he watched it back and pissed himself at some of the folds. The J10s with less than 3 bigs was a little doozey, and everyone was just trying to cling onto dear life for a pay jump. Was amazed to see that the J10s guy was up $800k!
The deal discussion was just madness. Marc being a whisker away from locking up $217k when they all fell over themselves to take the ICM chop bar 1 guy. Cue lots of discussion with guys that haven't a clue, aswel as a host who couldn't do simple maths or understand what was going on, before they finally got there! I'm sure he's just a little pissed off not to take down the extra 20k too, but great days work!

No more bundling things into "general" charges. Then it's really hard to change them if/when they need to go up & down.

Poker loser to poker superstar?
What's up bitches! All this poker chatter has got me in the mood to start playing online again. I used to play a bit and could make a grand or so a month- but deep seated rage/personal issues would usually make me blow it- even back in the day when the games were soft butter.
One of my biggest flaws is I no longer have any patience for the game and this has increased my rage while playing. After taking a beat or losing a hand i usually jump stakes or hit the roulette wheel hard.
Any tips on what game could be a winner for me?

On a serious note ... if casino games are a proper leak, ask the site to self-exclude you from them specifically.
Obv it depends on what your preference is, but I'd recommend starting with small buy in SnGs to keep a handle on what you're spending & test yourself to log out when you feel yourself starting to tilt. Also, probably an idea to deposit in smaller amounts so you're not having easy access to large amounts of deposited funds should you go on monkey tilt & have the urge to bust the account.

Playing poker seems like a different lifetime to me now. I'd say its a fairly safe bet that I'll never play another hand online, down from a peak of about 70,000 a month.

When you want to change they can do so via the admin again.
Winning is normally the easier part, not losing it back is the hard part.

Originally posted by oleras View PostAnyone that has copped on to smoking, ("giving up" is a tobacco term, you are giving up feck all but gaining) will tell the actual nicotine withdrawal is nothing, 2-3 days max, its the psych triggers that are hard to deal with, going for a shite, having a cuppa, that smoke on the balcony while on holidays before you head out as she is still getting ready.
No-one smokes because they don't like it, its enjoyable, so is heroin im sure but that stuff aint too good for you long term either.
To become a non smoker you have to stop/deactivate those triggers, i personally dont think an e cig does that, no more than a biro would in fairness.
Nicotine is similar to caffeine as far as im concerned, its whats in the rest of it, the tar and other chemicals that does the real damage. Smoking pure tobacco leaf would be aok id say.
Break those connections and you will be free.
Hotspur has a name for it, CBT i think ?
Sorry mate but this post is a load of rubbish. Smokers experience nicotine withdrawal for years after they quit smoking. Just because it can be caused by triggers, and isn't as frequent or intense after the first few days, doesn't mean it isn't the same thing.
The great value of the e-Cig is separating your nicotine addiction from tobacco. When you can get nicotine from a source that isn't tobacco, you can develop a much greater understanding of your addiction. You will still miss the cigarettes for a while - the flavour, throat hit, ritual etc. People like smoking. But once you can get nicotine from something else, then it makes giving up nicotine so much easier.
Pharma companies will say that their products are the best way to get nicotine from an alternative source, because they are designed to help you quit nicotine too, but in my experience, and from the testimonials of thousands of e-Cig users, those products are significantly less effective than an e-Cig.
Using nicotine replacement, there are two phases to giving up smoking: First you give up tobacco, then you give up nicotine. Unfortunately, all the current advice from major sources says that you should try to do both things at once. This is bollox IMO. It is much easier if you do it in two phases.
The eCig is by far the most effective method in existence for dealing with phase one. It is less effective for phase two than nicotine supplements, because there is a perception that it's just fine to smoke an e-Cig forever. This is the problem that the WHO etc has with e-Cigs.Last edited by AndyFatBastard; 27-08-14, 11:40."I can’t find anyone who agrees with what I write or think these days, so I guess I must be getting closer to the truth." - Hunter S.

Boyles website had an error that wouldn't let me log in so got a too many login attempts message when I tried with a different browser.
Lost connection twice in first ten minutes of playing the $1000 added on Paddy.
Flatmate said it was a sign
Un-regged from all other tournis and shoved the chips in last hand before the first break.
Connection was fine rest of the night!

Town where entire population is made up of beautiful young women makes appeal for single men
More than 600 women make up the population of Noiva do Cordeiro, southeast Brazil, and they are renowned in the local area for being extremely attractive
"The whole town came together recently to help buy a huge widescreen TV for our community centre so we can all watch soap operas together.
"And there's always time to stop and gossip, try on each other's clothes and do each other's hair and nails."

Been nominated for this stupid ice bucket challenge by brother and wasn't going to do it except daughter has been nominated as well and she wants to do it but only with me.
Stuck now whether to stick to my view that is a load of tripe and refuse and disappoint / annoy daughter or go ahead with it. Charity donations should be as you want to give and to whoever and I am happy within myself as I donate every month to a cause I believe in and being made to look like a kill joy / miser by not partaking in this nonsense really irks me.
