Re: Official February Thread: General Discussion/etc
one thing though TWP, im sure this is the right thing your doing (not that you need me to say this) but just remember that while playing that your playing for 3 months, not to see if it would work going pro. but then maybe going pro would be the right thing to do. who knows.

[ QUOTE ] I'm not changing paths. I'm just taking 3 months off from work to play full-time. I will then go back to my job. I am doing it because I am really hitting the burn-out point at work and need to take a nice long break, and also because I feel like I have not been able to come close to my potential at poker because I play so sporadically and my mind is always on other things, so I wanted to give myself the shot to see how good I can be. [/ QUOTE ] so if after 3 months you do get as good as you can be, especially profit wise, you will turn your back on this and go back to your job? i only say this as this is why i am not deferring a year, as even if it goes well, it could be a bad thing in the life-term. as for my goals: for feb: play as many hands as possible. only play 1-2nl. [/ QUOTE ] j kane, why are you just playing 1/2?(I ask because I was doing the same thing up until this week, so curious about others who do the same) |

How are people game selecting Stars? I've got basically no experience on the site so I don't even know who the regulars are. I'd be willing to pay for a comprehensive Stars 5/10, 10/20 buddy list. [/ QUOTE ] Basically the games on stars are always great, the only table selection you need it to stay away at all costs from tables included Deanrover6 (rumored to be bldwsttrs alt. account). |

I spent the last part of January working on my game and playing with tougher players, using no game selection or anything. I'm going to start this month by game selecting again. I can game select FTP by datamining/Sixth Sense. How are people game selecting Stars? I've got basically no experience on the site so I don't even know who the regulars are. I'd be willing to pay for a comprehensive Stars 5/10, 10/20 buddy list. [/ QUOTE ] [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] |
