Why do I not FT tournies for a month, and then win like 6 tournies in 3 days, and then continue that cycle?

My emotional control isn't very good. If I'm feeling great about my game I'm a monster, but if I'm frustrated and haven't done something in a while I'm liable to punt my stack.

I bought and wore tie-dye shirts. I wore them at casinos. People made fun of me for that. I don't understand why. But they're awesome. Same thing for the flipflops, they're comfortable.

When will gobbo stop being so straightedge?

An explanation on what he means:

I don't drink and don't plan to. My mom and my stepdad both drank and it led to some [censored] situations and I just have no interest in getting started on that. I have an addictive personality so I don't think it's smart to get started on drugs in general. Cigarettes too are just really dumb. gobbomom can be thanked for most of that.

new respect for you yo, don't really know much/ anything about you but the fact that there are other people like this in poker surprises me, thought it was only me and like one other person who were like this.

fwiw, i don't have any problems with my parents, my dad doesn't really drink at all. that stuff just doesn't appeal to me.

Nah, its just that those of us who don't, tend not to be as vocal about it as those who do.

I used to play stuff like role playing games, etc, and one particular game that I liked a lot was a game was a table top miniatures game called Warhammer. The first army I chose was Orcs and Goblins. Lots of green guys. When I got on yahoo when I was like 11 years old I tried to register 'OrcBoy' as my screenname but it was taken. So then I registered gobboboy and the rest is history.

'gobbo' is what Orcs call goblins. Here is a gobbo like the one in my avatar:




And dancing? Who doesn't like to dance. And a gobbo dancing is a gobbodance.
