[/ QUOTE ] you're lucky evan. you ran bad enough that you got discouraged and went the job route. i'd trade places with you right now in a heartbeat. you stalled in stage 3 but you can choose to keep going if you wish [/ QUOTE ] Hi Josh. If you want, I have a job for you in Cleveland in like two months. Maybe one in NY, but that means you have to help me find a job in NY. [/ QUOTE ] i may want a job in cleveland. would i have to wear khaki pants? |

5. LIMIT player reads BBV and sees how much more the other NO LIMIT players are making, so he decides he has to SWITCH GAMES. player faces the brutal reality that HE CANT PLAY NO LIMIT. now all of a sudden poker is not fun anymore. instead it's a constant struggle, but it's essential TO SAY ITS ONLY VARIANCE, AND THAT THE NL PROS HAVE ALL THE "FUNDAMENTALS" WRONG A LA KUROSH 7. poker consumes player and he eventually SHORT STACKS THE 50/100 UB GAME DECLARING HIMSELF A NL PRO [/ QUOTE ] |

I mean, I have to believe that there are places in NYC where you could by a reasonable home for 600-700k, no? [/ QUOTE ] HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Actually, if you plan on having fewer than three kids and you and your spouse combine income for no less than $500,000/yr., then yes, you can find a reasonable place in NYC for 600-700k. If I show you blueprints of 650k condos and co-ops in NYC, your mouth would drop. You can buy a very nicely arranged box for that amount. (And you might even get one full bathroom and a kitchen with a dishwasher!) |
