47 days as a trainee accountant vs 6 hours at online poker....
 

made 47 working days worth of wages as a trainee accountant today. woot. most ive ever won in a day. woot.

beat: was on course for 5 figure day till it started going pear shaped then i closed down all my tables before monkey tilting off winnings.

variance: should carry on playing (only 10.20pm here) but i know ill lose. may watch movie or match of the day + beer instead.

variance2: next week is 2nd week of my job. i want to quit now and go pro. probs will then go busto though.

what limit is this

Re: 47 days as a trainee accountant vs 6 hours at online poker....

I've said it before and i'll say it again...the nuts is job+parttime poker.

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

Flip that and I agree...part time job with part time poker is my fav. I'm really enjoying doing real estate for 15 hours a week...random community activies for 3-5 hours a week (city council meetings etc.)

Then spending 30-40 hours a week playing poker [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

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.

Re: 47 days as a trainee accountant vs 6 hours at online poker....
 

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

gogo crystal palace.

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

Can there be a more condescending sentence? God I hate when people write that.

Re: 47 days as a trainee accountant vs 6 hours at online poker....
 

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]
