So I have a credit card. I don't like buying shit on credit but it's golden and looks cool. And I got it for free since I had a lot of money in the bank (and still have some of it left! Yea! Go me!). The bank wanted me to do various crap with my money but everything they suggested seemed like it'd be a great freeroll for them and fairly crappy for me so that card was pretty much the only thing I got after having a meeting with my "Personal bank contact" or whatever the hell they call it. Anyway, I figured that a golden card should attract chicks. That was the plus side. The minus was that I was, and still is, in a committed relationship. Whatever, maybe I could get sex more often, right?
Anyway, turns out the damn thing is useful for something. My regular card did not work with bluefire poker so I just used this card to sign up since my man crush on Galfond could not be cooled down by anything less. So basically the only thing on my credit card bill each month was like 29 US or something for my bluefire subscription. Today I got another one and it struck me as odd that I still gave them money every month despite not really be able to remember that I ever renewed that thing.
So I sent an E-mail and asked them.
They replied that "oops, we've been taking zee monies for 4 months without giving you anything for it... Can't pay it all back due to anti fraud regulations and crap, do you want a free 6 month subscription?" I did want one. I'm happy with that deal. They replied really fast too so I just wanted to state that I like how they handle things. Also, now I can finally cancel my golden card and only use it to have something to flash in my valet.
Other then that poker is going ok. Unibet has turned on the ethernal doomswitch and I keep turning top2 + flushdraws 150bb deep vs bot set and losing every damn time. Up a ton on stars though, despite running below equity. I think something like 14k+ plus a bunch of points. Not bad for someone who played PLO50 a couple of months ago.
Did BJJ today. Felt tired as crap but pulled through due to "tired Dusty stubbornness". I'm probably the most boring grappler in the world when I'm tired. My gameplan when tired is something like:
If on my back: Go to rubberguard. Find out I'm not having shit for angles. Remember that I'm limber as fuck and go for (and mostly fail) omoplatas anyway.
If on top: Put lots of weight on top and hope it's uncomfortable. Wait until they fuck up. Go for, and mess up due to being slow as hell, armbars and try to get into full guard when they turn shit around. See "If on my back".
When I'm not half dead I'm not doing stupid rubber guard shit, but my top game sucks anyway. I seriously managed to miss enough armbars from month that I'm fairly sure I have a higher success rate just going for mounted gogoplatas, and that sure as hell ain't a solid "go-to-move". I have a hard time thinking I'll ever be more then a halfway decent grappler, but it's fun as hell.
One of the people I roll a lot with is a girl who's a 60kg purple belt. I'm about 100kg. I should probably weight like 85 if I was in good shape, but it's still a big weight difference. She still owns me for the most part due to her being really, really good. She lost the finals of the Swedish championships in submission grappling last year to some girl who went on to survive for something like 7 minutes against Kyra Gracie in adcc later that year. Anyway, she's in the hospital now due to running around at work with a pencil in her mouth(!). Dunno what the f happened but apparently they need to sedate her to fix her mouth or something, so that's kind of weird and I hope everything turns out well for her. While she looks like a monster she's actually really nice.
Never been on a roller coaster. I'm prone to be sick when I go on rides in amusment parks and such. Something with my inner ear. Also I'm seriously uncomfortable with heights.
At one point, I think I was 15, I was on something called "extreme". Some weird spinning wheel with arms or something. First go was o, both me and my friend felt ok. Then two girls (one of which had HUGE boobies) wanted to go with us. Then I got sick as hell and when it finally stop I ran away and puked down from a bridge into what I though was a river. Problem was that it was a bench on and some kind of walk way below the bridge next to the river so I was fairly close to hitting some big guy with tattoos who was making out with some girl.
I ran away and hid. He did not find me.
I never got to sleep with the girl with those huge boobs. That's one biggish regret of my youth. On the other hand, would've turned to starcraft and later Poker and won all this money if I actually had game when I was a teenager? Maybe my lack of sexual appeal as a teenager made me rich. That's one way to look at it.
edit: That video was cool. Music made me think of The Matrix. I should probably watch that one again.
jesus im scared just looking at her. I don't even know what it means to run around with pencil in one's mouth...to a point where one needs to be hospitalized.. i guess she had lead in her mouth for an extended amount of time? da fawk..

No idea either, but I guess she ran into something and hurt herself? The messages I got wasn't very clear.
armbars from mount are a bad idea in general. give up position a lot. i prefer going for gi chokes, mounted triangle, arm triangle or keylocks. or just stay in side control and threaten with kimuras/north south. mount is tough to finish without a gi or being able to punch someone
