Dante, can you get me a gig on A & E's "Intervention"?

GreenDoberman · Aug 31, 2008

you would be perfect for it I could see that now...

Me , Pornopaul, Mr Leisure , Mika Tan and Akillies would break you of your addiction to gambling when you walked in the room and we confronted you with it

Green Doberman, STOP

GreenDoberman · Aug 31, 2008

That would be four more people than needed Dante.

GreenDoberman · Aug 31, 2008

40 tournaments played:

9 firsts
5 seconds
6 thirds
20 out of money

50% cashes.

Profit: $128.80

Eyes need a bit of break from staring at those poker games. Need to clean up and do some paperwork as well.

Gonna cook those steaks too, Dante. Come on over and bring a bottle of cabernet, you never know when Steak Tartar will make a surprise appearance.:toast:

Drinking and gambling

:smoking:

Cusipz · Aug 31, 2008

No reason to stop, he's living the dream....Well, if Mika showed up.

GreenDoberman · Aug 31, 2008

Kiss,
I've actually only had 1 beer today while I was watching the Indy cars. Drinking and gambling do not mix.

Hey GB if you ever go up a level with the sng's I play the $22 on stars screen name mentalll. I only play 3 or 4 a day cause I only play 1 at a time. I find I do much better only playing 1 at a time, dont know how you can handle 10 at a time.

GreenDoberman · Sep 1, 2008

Stocks,
My poker bankroll is too small to go up to that level. I was considering the $16 turbos, but need to increase a little bit to get comfortable with the variance.

I actually find playing more tables at a time decreases my variance and makes the beats easier to take. Honestly, I'd go crazy playing one at a time and getting sucked out on. That's how I break my computer mouse.

GreenDoberman · Sep 1, 2008

To update the final tally for the day:

I feel asleep about 50 laps through the nascar race (the roundy-round is good for insomnia). Woke up and watched it on tape. Had the winner of the race (Johnson) at a short price and hit a few dog matchups as well.

For the day: 27-31-1 (-135.60)

Poker: 20 cashes out of 40, +128.80

Yes. I lost $6.80 for all that work.

Was a losing weekend combined with Saturday, but honestly feel I only made one bad bet all weekend (well two, any time I bet on Mexican soccer it's an automatic loss and fade) and stuck to my disciplined money management. (I know that is hard to believe with all the games I cap and bet, but there is a method to this madness).

One unusual thing I noticed, every day I check the balances at my books and go over the graded bets (you'd be surprised how often there are errors). One of my main books I use for a variety of bets, there was a pretty healthy increase in my balance. I then looked at another book, which basically was a freebie contest account and I have my doubts about cashing out there anyway, and I lost every single bet I made and now have a balance of $10 and some odd cents. In a way, that is a good thing since I'm not a fan of this book at all.

Keep the degeneracy continue-
