* The Dilemma (Comedy/Light Drama) - Kevin James, Vince Vaughn, Winona Ryder, Jennifer Connelly
- About telling your best friend how his wife is cheating on him and the problems that come with it
The movie was just Ok - could be on the don't watch list tbh
* Bulletproof Gangster"kill the irishman" (Bio/Action) - Ray Stevenson, Vinnie Jones, Vincent d'Onofrio, Christopher Walken
- Based on Danny Greene's life, Irish guy who gets fed up with Cleaveland crime families and starts fighting back. Highly recommended, very similar to "Rise of the Footsoldier"
* Insidious (Horror) - Very scary, people should definitely watch it. Had to watch with one eye open lol. fucking scary shit
* Waiting for Tomorrow(Love story/Drama) - Very slow drama/love story, if you want to feel sorry for a guy who's got absolutely no shot with a girl but hits a one outer in the end then i suggest you watch this. I dunno how I endured watching this movie but I did, and I actually found the whole thing decent. Proceed with caution on this one lol.(gf will prob love it)
* Lincoln Lawyer -(Mystery/thriller) Mat Maconaughey, Marissa Tomei, Ryan Philippe
- Courtroom Thriller about a rich boy accussed of attempted rape, assault on a hooker and his defense lawyer's methods of getting him off
* Hanna - Child raised to be an assassin by the CIA with the help of some manipulation of some engineering, looked really good even if i watched it on a terrible copy. Id recommend watching it in theatres, nice action sequences and the humor inserted are even surprisingly funny. awesome background music too
*Rise of the footsoldier - one of those good unknown gems ive watched 2 years ago, hooligans and gangsters
highly recommended
Newly released torrents which are crap:
Buried - ryan reynolds in a coffin for 2 hours, no chance to see his abs - fuck that lol
The Plague - just because its from a Clive Barker novel means you should watch it
Walking the Dead - horror mystery set in China
Tracker - Ray Winstone's piece of shit movie
Street Kings 2 - Busto sequel without the lead (No keanu here, just move along now)
Scream 4 - only watch if you have to
Gums keep bleeding and i have this blood taste in my mouth like all day lately. Each time I brush I spit blood and see my gums bleeding again, can this be Gingivitis,? does not look good, one tooth below seems wobbly too. Has anyone any idea if gums can be healed or restored to back to health by a dentist? Damn i dont wanna wear dentures in my late thirties lol
This whole poker thing was really the sum of all our fears, for hours i would read in 2p2 the stories of each and every person affected and I genuinely felt sorry for them while also being worried about my own situation. It really felt like the end of the world for some regs who built their whole lives around it, some of whom I've become friends or familiar with, even the guys whom I hated since they exploited me a lot at the tables. I hope everyone will be able to play soon and some changes to make the fish' deposit options more accessible, I honestly feel everything will be ok even for U.S. players, but this should definitely serve as a warning/lesson for everyone - plan ahead, diversify, do your research and never blindly trust anything with your money - all of the 3 ALWAYS.
I watched the movie "The Company Men", Ben affleck, tommy lee Jones etc, there was this scene where they all lost their jobs and one of the guys got so depressed at one point and said(paraphrasing) :
" You know what's the worst part of it all? My life ended when I lost my job, but life went on; my neighbor still washes his car every sunday, the paper still gets delivered daily, life went on - my world ended but NO ONE CARED BUT ME. " His statements rang so true for me personally, if I went busto now, there was nothing out there I had planned for myself, and that is something I should be trying harder to change.
I've been enjoying this summer mostly with my children and it's been a blast. Poker on the other hand has not been to great but at least im not down for the year. My little business had sold about 10 units close to its first month - not Edzwooing it but at least some are actually getting sold, I really need to go out and do some marketing since i really sell these things at the lowest price - i cant make money if i sell 10 a month. The website is still not finished and I might be finishing that soon since I'll be taking another break from poker after this. Nothings changed for me on the poker front so I might as well start making changes outside of it. Ok that's it for now, gl with all this poker stuff for everyone, everythign will be fine.
the company men - ben affleck, tommy lee jones(drama) about bustoness so a lot of people will relate lol, watch this alone so you are allowed to cry by yourself lol
just go with it - adam sandler(chick flick comedy romance stnd) really funny as usual, nice gf flick - the kids in this film were really good child actors. jen aniston is smokin hot btw
Tried withdrawing my roll from stars and they put account on hold to get requirements, I dont have utility bills atm so I dont have access to my funds which sucks coz now its in the internet cloud server somehow. Anyway I dont care since I might be saving money since recently after a decent run stars has turned some switch on again and Im expecting every session to be tilty as hell so might as well go away from there. heres some movies i watched, just 2 coz most out there were really bad
update:
told them to cancel withdrawal and they instaship funds back to account. i guess they want me to keep me playing. yes master lol
the eagle - eh, just barely ok to watch if you have like the whole day to waste.
* eagle brand of the 9th roman legion disappears along with 5k men
* son of the commander wants to redeem lost honor of family by looking for it
* befriends a slave after getting discharged (wounded in battle) some bromance(czechs will approve lol)
the rite - solid horror movie, about exorcism, lost faith blah blah. highly recommended
* anthony hopkins is stellar as usual
* possessed pregnant 16 year old was disturbingly hot
* nice ending, wont leave you upset that you just wasted time getting a ? ending
* based on a true story so its a plus in my book
* lead actor was the only guy who didnt fit in this movie and honestly his acting was a bit lol
zeitgeist - addendum and final
* conspiracy nuts will love this, although im sure everyone here has heard or watched this already
* i dunno these guys have me convinced, but im sure doing nothing helps with that
some movies i forgot to review...inc what to avoid
whamm!, Apr 10 2011
"fair game" - naomi watts, sean penn (true to life story) politics iraq conspiracy blah blah --- very solid movie though
"It's a kind of funny story"(off-comedy) - distressed teen thinks hes nuts checks himself into mental facility blah blah, good acting, heartwarming juno-ish, humor smartass kid meets odd fellow played by zach(hangover slob guy is here) nuff said
"the reef" - aussie sharkuuuuuh movie, been awhile since there's been a remotely decent one, so i guess this is a must when you're bored. decent thriller, from the makers of that aussie croc movie. believe me
the trailer does not do it justice - its not horrible at all, and the trailer is not the movie and its strange they picked such a horrible trailer with scenes that aren't even in the movie at all - strange.
"van diemens land" - creepy movie, based on aussie prison camp escape in some wilderness, resort to eating each other, slow paced movie, "the way back" meets "ravenous" without the funny shit.
"wake wood" - eerie horror movie about a couple who moves to a small town to forget the gruesome death of their kid, only to be told by the townsfolk that they can "help" them out, decent gem of a unknown flick.
"I hope they serve beer in hell" - i cant believe this movie did not receive any buzz?!? this movie is a solid dude movie, smart funny dialogue, good acting and solid characters, recommended.
avoid these torrent available deceptively decent movie crap:
"hobo with a shotgun" - even for a "bad movie" its bad
"human centipede" - crazy german doctor traps 3 people, 1 jap, two girls, surgically connect them mouth to ass, highlight of the movie - jap guy in front is fed and needs to shit so girl's mouth stitched to his ass obv eats shit lol
"london boulevard" - shit
"vanishing on 7th street" - shit
"the speed of light" - shit, dont use your metered bandwidth on thsi crap
8 episodes. some were hilarious one episode not so much as it is hard to be funny doing a documentary but this guys insight is really some form of retarded, forrest gumpish genius lol
Ricky Gervais laugh is one i do only when Im almost in tears when I laugh, some find it annoying but im pretty sure it's not fake at all.
he looks at the old woman who passes by and says
"I bet she left her house when she was about, 10." ROFL
motherfucking time and money sinkholes. didnt even know they had tourney/sng restrictions since ive always used the cash 12 hours and limit restrictions. still grinding has been very much what it is, a hardcore grind, up and down everyday but i dont think im playing that terribly although i do know i play very un-optimal poker in some spots. i think ill need to grind like this for a month or two, get a couple grand in profits/fpps and decide to 4 table and try 6max, now its just a race to 8k roll so i can witdhraw more than half to finance my little microstakes business venture lol
the mini review/my personal website/mini online shop will be up about a month or two, ill be putting the torrents within the short review pages ill be recommending just so that you'll get a decent copy of the movie right away. im so tired atm, almost done downloading two movies and gonna watch it soon after, gotta take a nap. glhf gayboys
update: movie is decent and worth watching , dont expect an ala "prison break" type of thriller though. more of a drama, focusing on the hardships of actually crossing borders of several countries dodging
the russians and germans
watching this atm and so far it's good. ed harris, colin farell, and a bunch of other dudes in this prison escape movie set in siberia set in world war 2. its based on a true story(as usual) and national geographic produced this, its pretty well made and the torrent available is very clear. the escapees have to contend with the locals since the russians have a bounty on any escaped fugitives heads, not to mention the wildlife, hunger etc. i recommend u check it out.
Going to try and watch hobo later
all are on torrent sites, and all of decent xvid quality, just search well for it. pretty soon i think ill just link you to my simple forum website with the torrent already available for download there for the lazy guys here. all u do is register and dont even have to post stuff lol.
due date - hilarious and stnd zach hangover guy and robert downey jr.
exam - its all shot in one room the whole time, but very engaging thinking movie
cyrus - about 2nd relationships and chances and baggage, one good comedy drama for gf/wife
limitless - bradley cooper movie about a drug which can enhance receptors of brain to use 100% of it , guy uses its effects to its maximum potential, good thriller and bradley cooper's agent really knows what movies to pick for his client(even the A-team). highly recommended.
Looking for stake at 50nl FR:
-have beaten this limit and still do
-have all the tools to keep on doing so(hem, tableninja, tablescanner, handhistory subs from ptr)
-not promising insane profits but def will be +EV for both of us
-still playing less tables and bumhunting for the most part
-on average i'll probably be playing 800 to 2k hands tops daily
Reasons for wanting a stake:
-since coming back have been very risk averse, cut down on volume a lot and not playing optimal because of it and i find it is -ev in general
-i am overrolled for it but i also use my current BR for supplier payments so its kinda screwing with decisions a bit so i think its best i just withdraw my whole BR and start playing and making better business decisions as well
-I still have like a lot of time for poker, and it still profitable, but i have already abandoned any plans of moving up so this is where i will most probably remain.
i think 25bi will be enough since i am not 18 tabling at any point in the stake and ive lost all interest in fpp proing since losing my supernova status. any interested ppl just pm or post in this blog thanks guys.
