Citizen Erased 0 Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 So I'm applying for work placements during summer, and the applications have some interesting questions. Problem is, I don't know how to answer them. Did any of you guys have to answer something like this, and what did you put. For example: Describe your role, the action you took and the outcome in a situation where you have had to use an original approach to deal with a conflict or complaint. Please be specific in your example. (max 250 words) I somehow don't think "Some guy kept three-betting my steal attempts so I shoved on him" would suffice... Link to post Share on other sites

bull62 0 Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 So I'm going to a Mardi Gras ball tonight. Some of you may remember the quality entertainment I provided last year once I got home (Zach, King, etc). Hopefully we will not have a repeat performance.edit: the aftermath http://www.fullcontactpoker.com/poker-foru...p;#entry2368560 Link to post Share on other sites

NoSup4U 0 Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Snamuh: I don't feel like your winnings w/o showdown is bad this month. It looks pretty normal given that you're having a losing stretch.Bull: I think your street by street betting should get smaller, but the leak you may or may not have is at least on the good side. For instance, the vast majority of players bet the flop WAY too much and the turn WAY too little. But that being said, you still should be firing more on the flop than on the river. (That's just my opinion though, everyone has their own style)Mark Link to post Share on other sites
troyomac 0 Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 ugh waking up early on weekends is garbageAt least you went to sleep.. I've been up for about 54 of the last 62 hours (3 of the hours "sleeping" I counted were on the plane and shitty sleep). I got Pizza Hut on the way though, so that's good!

SlapStick 0 Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Question SuperBowl lovers:I've watched about 4 superbowls, and have travelled with a few Americans so I know a bit more than the average non north American but would it be a big deal if they played the Superbowl on a Saturday?Perhaps theres a tradition etc, just if it were on Saturday then all the Euros and the Irish would be able to watch it a lot easier. It starts at 1/2am over in Ireland, lasts for about 6 weeks, so its pretty difficult to watch it.The NFL are trying their best to globalise the sport and from what I've seen it could definitely work but the Superbowl is tough for anyone to watch who have normal jobs and obviously beer is needed for a 20 hour game.So to changing it to a Saturday would it be a "hell no!"/"I could get used to it I guess/I'd prefer it"?I would understand the "hell no" there are plenty of things in rugby that could be changed but I'd stick by them due to tradition.I guarantee if it where on a Saturday, Superbowl parties would go up 2000% in Ireland Link to post Share on other sites
NoSup4U 0 Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Slapstick, I don't think people would 'care' per se, but its just always been on a Sunday, NFL games are mostly on Sundays so most people are just used to that.Mark Link to post Share on other sites
JubilantLankyLad 1,957 Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Slapstick, I don't think people would 'care' per se, but its just always been on a Sunday, NFL games are mostly on Sundays so most people are just used to that.Markhow about if they played the first three quarters on saturday, then paused the game and finished it on sunday? that would give the players a chance to get more sponsorships, etc, some last minute coaching, and ESPN could really ramp up the advertising, build up the hype, make it an "event", like the final table of the WSOP ME. I bet that would increase the ratings bigtime. Link to post Share on other sites
therescav 0 Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Month:Feel pretty good about it; this was my introduction to HU and whilst I feel I had some 'run good' moments, I dealt with the crap and the downswings and posted a nice result at 50NL. Goal for end of Feb is to have a big enough roll for 100NL HU. Link to post Share on other sites
Citizen Erased 0 Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Despite trying for four weeks (literally), I'm not getting the hands I played on my Mac. I'm guessing I actually made about $150 overall over about 10k hands, but can't be sure. Ah well. Poor volume was a result of exams, etc. so can't complain there.Anyways, nice latter half of the month, imo Link to post Share on other sites

mhoward29 0 Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Well Im probably not playing tonight so my first full month of play (about 3k hands) Im down 2 buy-ins. I didnt put in much volume at all obv and I went from FR to 6m during this time. At mid month I was up 5BI but had a rough go at it in the end.Feb goal: At least 5k hands and 10bi. Is this too many bi for this amount of hands? My main goal is the 5k hands part but I want to put in a $ value also. Link to post Share on other sites
