Okay, got to clear things up, I see.Doing something as shown in the video is clearly illegal in Germany and you will be arrested for doing so.It does not fall under freedom of speech!Now with that being clear, the video isn't filmed in Germany, but in Austria, which all of the ones saying "Oh, I lived in Germany for quite a while..." should have noticed by the police cars.... and I do not know how these things are handled there and if it falls under freedom of speech there or is illegal.

Hi Daniel,don't know if this is really going to help you a bit or so, but I myself do have some back problems from time to time (despite being just 19 years old) and since I started going to the gym, they decreased pretty fast.In my case it was that some muscle areas on my body weren't trained enough while others were "overtrained".So just take it as some guy trying to help you a little, go to the gym or some personal fitness trainer and let 'em tell you which muscles you'ld have to train to balance your body a little.Might also help for playing 15-hour-tournament-days sitting in the same chai

Hi everybody,I just came back from a live tourney in a city nearby here in Germany and busted out quite early (something 30ish out of 52), as I didn't know how to adjust to the stupid structure.Everybody was given 1500 Chips to start with and the blind levels were as follows:20/40 for 25 min40/80 for 25 min100/200 for 20 min200/400 for 20 min400/800 for 20 min1000/2000 for 15 min2000/4000 for 15 min5000/10000 for 15 minSo you only start with a M of 25 which is getting reduced to just 12.5 after 25 minutes of play (by the way, we don't have fancy shuffling machines here, so the dealers do the s
