It can be an early birthday present to myself.This would be a good time for me as well...BOOK ITI learned one thing from this event..Gambling is really fun...Like I play poker and grind to make a profit..but its not as fun to make huge over your bankroll bets like Biatch and Ray..Couple of lines from the night after the tourneyRay: " I dont like money"Zach: " I dont like playing poker" Link to post Share on other sites
Zach6668 513 Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 I honestly hate playing live poker, unless there's some sort of ulterior motive, like charity, playing with celebs, meeting FCHLers, etc. I can't ****ing stand going to play 1/2 NL or 5/10 LHE anymore, it blows my mind how boring that shit is.Having said that, I do still like to play the odd live deepstack tourney or WSOP event, etc, just because if you do go deep, the thrill of playing on day 3 of a WSOP event cannot be matched.But even with online poker, like Serge said, it's a job to me, and it's although it's the best job I could ask for at this point in my life, it's one of those things where it's just not as fun as it used to be.Gambling, though, is immensely fun, and I look forward to blowing 10s of thousands of dollars in November.

I would obviously play some poker in Vegas but the real fun has clearly been demonstrated to be getting drunk and hanging out with you guys. Arp brought up the Skyboxes at MGM which sounds absolutely tailor-made for our kind of group. I want to get more active in sports betting (not to an extreme, just for fun and to make the games more interesting) so I think that would be an absolute blast. Link to post Share on other sites
serge 904 Posted May 11, 2009 Author Share Posted May 11, 2009 i am putting $2 aside every day...In 6 months it will be $360...I will bet all of it on a Leafs game in Vegas...Biggest sports bet I have made is $100 for a superbowl.. Link to post Share on other sites
MapleLeafpoker 1,462 Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 This November thing is kinda funny.....cause I was already in the process of working on going to Vegas with some other friends. (hockey guys too, and degen gamblers!)My only problem is I got a wedding in Nov, close family. Its either Nov 14/21. Once I figure that out, the other wknd is golden.FYI....US turkey day is Nov 26, I imagine thats a next to impossible weekend for most of you.I got some travel pts to burn, lets make it happen!

I realized I travel a lot and probably should have looked into that a long time ago.Apply online with most airlines. I am signed up with Delta because it has great flights and times for where I mostly go (South Florida, Chicago and LA)You can also just sign up with most CC companies and you can accumulate points from purchases you make and you can cash them in for flights or merchandise.

I realized I travel a lot and probably should have looked into that a long time ago.I used to fly a lot for work, and so I got them then. But a lot of those were with international carriers, so really not much use personally. I dont fly to Paris every month!The best way is to get a credit card that rewards you with points per spent dollar. DONT get Aeroplan, it sucks. Get something like the Royal Bank's Avion card. For example, last year, VERY last minute, I joined some friends in Vegas for 25k pts, and the ticket cost of $650 with surcharges included was covered. I paid a small portion of the tax, like $90. And I booked this like a week before I left.But these cards really pay off if you buy a lot, or in my case, own a business with lots of expenses/inventory. My customers (jewellery stores) make a killing with these, because all of their purchases are with credit cards and its for the business and they get all kinds of free flights.
