No_Neck 0 Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 aren't tortillas made of corn? I saw an episode of good eats and he made it with corn.also if you want some good food that is easy to make www.nutrisystem.com they have pretty good food and it is all low glyciemic blah blah blah. You might have to double the meals though if you are not trying to lose weight. But it is decent food and it is delievered to your door. Link to post Share on other sites

pokerplayer24 0 Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 I dont get how everyone puts in some much time at the tables. 3 hours of multi tabling a day is enough time for me to get in 2k hands. Half the time I dont even do that. I wouldnt consider myself a pro but at the same time I will most likely make well over 6 figures while at the same time poker has little affect on the way I run my life.I mean really. Whats with everyone putting in 8 hour days. Its poker, it should be easy. Link to post Share on other sites

Whats with everyone putting in 8 hour days. Its poker, it should be easy.I don't want to get too far off topic here, but this post I will respond to. I NEVER mulit table. I play live and online, but either way, I put in between 4-10 hours depending on various things. 8 hours is quite standard for a poker player. Online it is sometimes a good idea to break it into 2 sessions. But the key is to play hours and not results. I think someone else wrote that, lol. If you are better than your competition, your edge will come with endurance, variance, and stamina. That's why it's important to play a full session (for the most part). Poker being easy? hmmm.Anway, my diet changes all the time. When JC lived with me, I bought food and he cooked which was great. I never cook, so if I'm playing live I eat at the casino. When I play at home, lots of take out....but my dog loves that. Link to post Share on other sites

bascomeb 0 Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 For you guys that play a certain amount of hours a day, does a tourney include those hours or is that just an extra amount? Now that I'm back from school Im trying to get in 6-8 hours a day with an occaisonal tourney if I'm bored.Oh and my eating habits aren't that good cause of poker. I usually only have 2 meals a day one which includes a bowl of cereal Link to post Share on other sites

My eating habits are usually something like this:Wake up around 1pm, eat some yogurt, fire up the computer .4pm, order some sort of takeout (usually sushi), eat at desk while multi-tabling.8pm, order some sort of takeout, eat at desk while multi-tabling.1 am, drink beer.Do the other guys who play for a living have eating habits as bad as me?I need to learn how to cook and get away from my computer sometimes...im barley at school and play not pro but as my source of income.some of you probly know im back on eating pizza because the doctor told me to gain weight so heres my day.2 pm. wake up order pizza hut.4 pm. cheerios6:30 break for friendsthen alchol and snack food till about 4 am then bed Link to post Share on other sites
