I honestly wouldnt mind shortstacks if stars wasnt so [censored] rigged in their favor. They [censored] suck so bad and win every single hand.

Probably. They have def paid other people's tuitions.

[/ QUOTE ]
yea someone made a bbv thread- "brag: pokerstars paid my tuition" or something along those lines after using concierge to pay for school

[/ QUOTE ]
If you think about it, that's not a brag, that's a giant beat.

[/ QUOTE ]

Lol I was the one who had school paid for.

And I dont get how making 6 digits while in school AND getting pokerstars to pay for my college using FPPs could ever be a beat.

[/ QUOTE ]

obviously, alot of props there. but you dont understand what I mean, so I'll drop it.

[/ QUOTE ]

Please explain, I still dont get it.

[/ QUOTE ]

he paid a ton in rake. its that simple. it's a beat because, well, that's money that technically should be his, rather then a portion, "if" poker was a 0 sum game. as is, it's not, so alot of his money has been taken from him.

obviously, we all pay rake, so it's a beat for all of us, but when you're able to use FPPs for school - which is very nice - it means you generated an insane amount of rake.

[/ QUOTE ]

I guess its sorta like people bragging about getting $xxxxx back on tax returns.

However, i'd certainly rather make $50k-10k than $0. Although you obv arent debating that. Its not like he just cant pay rake...

[HEK]

1st place = $50k. I bust 13th. Kill me...

So my landlord gave me less than a month's notice to get out because her other son (I currently live with her oldest son) wants to move in for Summer B session. Now I've decided to find a place to live for the fall and head out to vegas for a couple weeks for the series. So I said f it and I found a place for fall and I'm putting my stuff in a storage unit and headin to Vegas for the series. I need to find a place to stay, so if anyone has an extra room or has anyinfo on decent places to stay send me a PM. Thanks
