I think I owe you something for online boogaloo (delayed), so maybe just transfer that over here?
Anyhoo, just let me know what to send and where. Whatever works.
Wait, what? This one is cancelled already?
Just in case it isn't I'll take 2.5%..
Personally I think you should stay in school... Full time poker player? Have we ever had one of those around here? What do they look like? Is a related profession moving couches perhaps?
I decided I didn't want to buy into the clinic and I make more money playing poker 20-30h a week than working 40h+ a week so I'm going to enjoy the summer playing for a living until I find something I want to buy.
Or ..just be a degen poker player
going to Maui in May...you coming down for any of the series in April?
Alberta cash games are probably the softest I've played. However, I have never played anywhere that the games were not beatable for a decent rate. My most hours have been in AB, Vegas and undergrounds in Toronto. I rarely play 1/2 NL anymore, but made $50/h for years playing it part time in AB. I know other pros that are not as good as me that claim they make around that rate today in Calgary. I can make more 1 tabling PLO live than 6 tabling online with much less risk...plus I have never enjoyed online poker. I do not really have enough hours at the PLO game for a true win rate (not going to get into stats here or the ever changing state of the games) but I am making well over double my 1/2 rate at PLO.
I'm a very introspective person/player and I have no ego with respect to poker. That being said, I have rarely played with anyone that is as good a live cash player as me...so that probably helps with the profits.
California games are good in pockets...I never played the 5 10 PLO at the Bike which was my bad as I hear it was/is super soft. For me, a good game is also a game where the regs aren't miserable fucks with nothing to talk about other than poker...which makes the AB games >>>>>> California games. If I'm going to play lots of hours I may as well enjoy myself.
I'm not doing this forever, but I have always wanted to give it a try without working and I am in a good situation where I can try it out. I will start working again part time in May and see how things balance out for the best work/life enjoyment while the air is warm out here. Long term plan is to likely buy or start a clinic in Calgary or BC within a year or two depending on what opportunities arise.
Being a grown-up may just not be for me.
I feel that I could quite easily get rich playing the 10/25/50/100 (it varies) PLO that is currently running in Calgary. It is usually a pretty soft lineup. I just do not have the bankroll at present to play it. I would seriously take a backer at 50% to play that game. I will still take shots here and there when I am having a good month.
glad to hear you're going to Maui....but I meant I'll take the rest, not get some rest
.
Not sure, maybe
It is done
PLO rebuy should be ok
Probably more likely. Hard to earn the same living as a vet playing 2/5 NL and PLO. Although you have been known to prove me wrong
I think I have a $75 credit for money already sent for the online one.
I'll ship once you confirm.
You could please send my $160 to Hobbes and I can collect from him at Royal. My credit union EMT's hate me since an apparent fraud attempt last fall. You can try my email address but I doubt it will work.
Just withhold what I owe to save fees.
Hadn't seen you around...will put you on reserve for whatever I do next
OK, pm EMT info please
How much does a vet make? $2/$5 PLO plays pretty damn big
