So, I sobered up at about 3:00 or so, decided to play a little and am now in the middle of a full blown bender. Running hot so I think this is going to be a long tiresome day. On my 2nd pot of coffee and it's only 7:50 am eastern. Wish me luck.

Are you in the Eastern time zone of Canada or something? Because out here in the Eastern time zone of Amuricah, it's 8:50am.

Better put on a third pot....

Hang in there!

lol

Just came back to win a 9 player Sit and Go when I was down to 88 chips. That was a hard earned 27 bucks.

I can't stand online poker. I don't know what I'd do if I didn't have tons of live poker options available.

yeah, nothing beats live tables, but online is much more lucrative.

$27 in 5 hours is lucrative? Now that I think about it, that's almost minimum wage. That is sad. People should just play online poker instead of working in fast food.

huh? That was just a Sit and Go, about 20-25 minutes. I play 4-6 cash tables at a time and S&G's to pass the time if the cash games are slow.

A buddy of mine plays online poker for a living, doing what you said. Multiple cash tables, little tourneys here and there, and entries into bigger ones that he has the schedule worked out for. He does live tourneys on occasion too. Last time we talked, he said he makes anywhere from 500 to a grand a week. I am pretty awesomely jealous.
