What part of Korea do you live in, and have you been to CooBucks in Itaewon?

Do you play any games besides FRNL and have they helped your development as a poker player?

Koreans don't eat cats silly, they drink them.

Cats are boiled alive and made into a tonic as a folk remedy for Neuralgia and Arthritis. This tonic is known in Korea as "Goyangi Soju" or Cat wine. And yes, it does exist.

Technically, it's illegal in Korea although the laws are not enforced.

On and, I've never tried any of that stuff. Though I have tried silk worm larvae.

I live in Bundang, a suburb of seoul. I don't think I've ever been to that place. To be honest, I hate itaewon and try to stay away unless I'm shopping.

Limit poker helped me immensely with hand reading. I played a tonne of that last year, which I neglected to mention in my poker story.

2. I always played online. I was primarily a SNG and MTT player until a year ago. I’ve been at 200NL for a year, playing a bit of $400NL (maybe 10% of my hands). Not playing higher because I have bills to pay and I’m still learning. Though I've been successful at 400NL, mostly because I cherry pick.

3. Mostly the guys that play higher as well;
jackhan
ysomehting (cant remeber his game but he gives me fits)
dilith

dr.ballgame is pretty good as well but I havnt played a tonne with him yet

4.
most hands/month=120,000
$$$/day =$12k
$$$/month=~$13k

5. I respect everyone’s game. I try to understand why they play the way do, in order to better exploit it.

6.I’d like to eventually start just picking out the best games from 400-1000NL.
