Fun fact: The wife from House of Cards if freaking Princess Buttercup from Princess Bride!
I found out after ep.4
Mind.blown.
Yeah so like I burned out (too many vids, drinking, HU championship, many hrs etc.etc.) hated poker again dumped like 9bi at fiddy.
And went on a massive House of Cards Binge. I've seen all 26hours in 2-3 days. The first episode felt rly confusing and I was like wtf but then I got caught completely by it I even watched the UK season 1
Spacey's so much fun and I can't see anyone better for that role, that double tap at the end gave me chills.
The wife's subplots were kinda meh but tolerable - I was watching agents of shield and for the first time I realized how bad the writing is compared to this. I'd defo recommend this to everyone.
In other news
I've Won the PS HU championship

Visited local Uni , It felt fun to be in class even though it was just erasmus students' presentation on Egypt and Kenya. I even volunteered for Belly Dancing. I was 2nd behind someone who was a whip for too large % of of the audience (they were polish like he was)
Started going to Kwan-Um Zen practice. Some of them are doofuses but it's a great thing for poker.
when they think about "who am I" etc, during meditation I just scheme on how to own, besides the usual clearing my mind stuff Whatever you think about their chanting etc. it does help you forget about poker.
23rd-25th may I have a 3 day 3-1 floorball tourney with my old pals I haven't played with for 4 years.
There is a grindhouse for 5 days in Czech Republic that I have to miss because of this, oh well.
I'm training for Spartan Race June 1st
Getting ready for ps VIP gig - free vintage video games and food all day at a castle June 28
and hopefully I'll get into a goalie camp July 24th-27th
So this should make for a fun summer. Of course Czech Chicks, family stuff (playign tennis with 80y old grandma tomorrow) pools , beer gardens and summer fitness with shitloads of pokering
Started reading Dune but that shit's so confusing at hard to read that I gave up - if it gets better and you stand by this book let me know. I'm reading something on childhood psychology now and how it affects people, pretty fun stuff.
Also I'm still undecided about winter, but I really don't want to stay here unless floorball will go really really well. Most likely destination for a few months seems Thailand.
Thanks for reading people.
It's back to NL16 for me, with 1bi shots at 50 again once I get to 30bi

A comfortable living. e.g. my rent is $200 .
Tbh I "live too much" and have been e.g. partying and watching shows way more than I should :<
I just love poker life, moving up's just a bonus but of course I am and will be pushing hard for it. |

Stay on Dune, its the nuts. Especially if you were a gamer and played Dune 2 back in the day a lot. It explains a lot. |

there is a light at the end of the tunnel... (but sometimes the tunnel is long and deep as hell) | |

you guys actually read it? I played Dune2, and I used to read PC games magazines, I was addicted to those a ton
So I was really hyped.
But its soo damn confusing even tho I knew harkonnens and atreides so many made up names confusing stuff. They always change perspectives and the english is a bit dated, it doesn't flow as easily as Clarke at all.
But guess I'll power through it if you guys stand by it |

everyone keeps talking about that show guess i need to see it.
congrats on the hu win, what do you get for that? do you have plans to get a job (or try to start a business, or something besides poker) in the future or are you planning to play poker forever? |

got $200+highest status at that site (new vids, get to go to the party...) and am getting a free coaching sesh, pretty cool for a fun tourney 256 people single elimination BO5 -BO7 HUSng
If I could play poker forever that'd be swell but I don't really sweat it man - I was working 30hrs during full time college then got into a serious relationship 2 months into uni, worked in corporation then 12h/day sales jobs all of it in a foreign country.
AKA: I had no life and I'm making up for it now |

Did u save a lot from working through college, how do u live off playing 16nl bro?
Grinding 16nl is probably enough to live a normal life in Thailand, what is the currency exchange for ps funds in Czech Republic?
Keep up the good work! |

longple: ur missing the point! this is an attempt to get away from the bumhuntmentality! | |
