I downloaded both parts from rapidshare, checked the archive and it was fine. I also took the liberty and re-uploaded the video to a different host. I can't stand the fact that you have to wait 144 minutes (rapidshare) in order to download the second part of the archive.

I hope you live in like... Texas or something. I would also never want to depend on a gf to live [img]/images/graemlins/ooo.gif[/img]

I live in Ohio, not worried about depending on gf to live, she loves to work (weird) and I also will be doing most of the stuff around the house while she goes to school (I'm only going part-time for a bit until I get things settled)

Wtf is your minimum wage? I live in So Cal, like the 2nd most expenisve state in the US, and ours is 7.50, and that was only recently raised.

[thac]

He said in Denmark its around $12, and the job I have right now would be around $19/hr.. so gay.


WHITEBOY - Did you close the table before a hand that you were in was over? That's usually the problem. Sit out a hand before you leave and it should work properly.

[jonyy6788]

$19/hr but I would guess cost of living or taxes to the gov't would be a different story.

btw, $9.50/hr for 40hrs/week is plenty

Sure, but we are talking pro's/con's of job vs poker.


And living cost here are such, that you have to do fairly well of poker to manage, crushing 25NL would not be enough, but it seems that thac can double his hourly rate by eight tabling 25NL.

All the do not quit your daytime job advice seen quite often from so many american posters suddenly rings very hollow

[Tickner]

I wouldnt want to use poker as my main source of income unless I was playing at least $100nl. I suppose you could manage at $50nl if you plan on moving up within the near future. But $25nl just isnt enough unless you 12 table for a nice winrate. In which case you could probably beat $100nl anyway.

Just my 2 cents on the matter.
