Any way back to poker, just playing for fun at the moment, what I want when I want and if I want. Try to get back some of the enjoyment it used to give me.

Got a little fun idea I might try, will post details.... there again I might not try it :) " Free, free at last ".

I had some counselling some years ago. The lady told me about a book called Being Happy by Andrew Matthews. Just checked it out on Amazon and you can get it for £6.47 inc. delivery. Bargain. It's defo worth a read and just puts a lot of stuff into perspective.

I think I'm going to read it again TBH, need some realignment. Spent most of today appllying for a job that pays half my current salary!

I have started to think the meditation thing could be the way forward for an angry tilty guy like myself, read Faraz Jaka's blog the other day about his trip to a Buddhist monastery which sounded amazing.

GL Pal.

Cheers for that.

Don't think I tilt....yes I go "qerfbqlsvcnsqckqcnqk;cnqe " when rivered in a big pot deep, but get over it quickly and kinda have FFS Next attitude to it. Helps of course that I don't rely on any poker $$$ all for extras don't you know.

When checking my ss I have something like 180 different events I have played sng, 45 mans, HU, RB satties etc., I guess we all do. Half of which are either even or in profit so I thought it might be kinda fun to have ago at getting the rest in profit, and if I get bore, f*** it do something else. Ohhhhhh the option of a free man.

Any way will stick pics up of those I need to get to a positive and take em on one by one. The problems is off course that certain events no longer exist like the 2 Grote HU tourney, in which case I will find something as near as.

So you're going to get all those into profit if you can? Sounds like a challenge that might be fun and the list element may add focus. From the top down or random generator picking as the mood takes? :)

You have fun,

Mal.

First one done, was running like I would expect in a flop feast but managed to hold in one. Was worried I was going to have to stay on this one for a while :)

3.50 HU next, one bullet would be peachy.

So funny when I look down the list to see what I fancy with the time I have available and generally how much I can be arsed and I see things like Horse and Omaha H/L . I remember years ago accidently entering this sort of thing and now they come back to haunt me as I have to address them at some point.

Thanks to Lazz i have a rough idea, still that's for later, plenty more to tidy up first.
