Nice edit. I was going to take serious issue with it otherwise. Never in a million years could you get me to get a job that restricts my movement and pays me crap while I come home and make over $500/hr playing a card game. Perhaps when I retire I'll pick up a [censored] paying job just for kicks, but while I'm playing professionally there isn't a chance in hell.

Also, who the [censored] can get in 15 hours a week of work and top that off with 30-40 hours a week of poker. If I do 25 hours a week of poker it was a great week [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

the main reason for quitting would be if i could ship say $500k each year for the next 3-4 years. then ship some retirement i guess/do something i'd find interesting to try and make the monies rather than grinding at the job.

MOTD good? Did Gerrard dive or not?

I missed MOTD because i had to do 2 hours of overtime.

the pundits thought it wasn't a dive, i thought it was a bit dubious.

From this post and reading your msnl stuff it just sounds like you are used to bumming around post-university so it's a rude wake-up call, and you are in the wrong career. There are plenty of challenging and interesting jobs out there that don't require 100 hours a week and allow for a life and poker on the side.

congrats on a nice win

No this is so wrong.

Because when he has a day where this is opposite, he wants to kill himself thinking he just blew away the last 47 days worth of work

Gerrad did dive (professional dive, welcome to modern football) and in general Everton was robbed.

Nice day man - havent spoke to you in ages so dunno how much you hating the accounting crap, but a bad day at poker is WAY worse than a bad day at work - im sure you know this as well as anyone.

Also, good to see youve got past your gazillion hand break even streak [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
