I was trying to make it entertaining to read, remember not everyone knows the struggles I have taken to get where I was. Now I dont plan on going to wsop and taking down multiple tourneys, but I do plan on having a decent showing. As bad as my play has been latley, I have had a solid showing in my tourney cash's.


I know you think I'am terrible but im happy with my performance in tourneys.


also how can I brush it off, well hell what am I supposed to say what do yo u expect me to do. Start yelling at you? or crying? you have to be able to laugh at yourself sometimes.

$4 to win $217 I dont feel like that is waste of time like you suggest. and like I said the play is horrible so its not hard to make final tables, if I would stop donking away money in big cash games I would be happy.

Seriously, you play $4 tournies. How do you expect to buy-in at the WSOP? Oh wait, I remember that old PPP post about the backers. Are they coming through this year? What happened to '06?

no actully I plan on buying in, but actully if you win 5 tourneys you have your buyin. Im not saying im buying in to main event are your crazy? I plan on buying in to one of the smaller events.


I plan on working alot of overtime beggining of next year and spliting costs with Chuck and having fun and hell maybe get lucky and win some money. I know you think I'm just wasting money but I feel I have the same odds of doing good as anyone else and its more about the expierence then anything else. If I dont cash im not going to be heartbroken or anything.


as for backers no that was silly, no way would I ask for any backers.

lies, no more like me just acting stupid. Actully I did have 1 person at work saying they would give me like $100 for a couple % but that was about it. So not lie like but me stretching the truth yes.

I wouldnt want anyone putting money on me because I dont think I would play as well, I think I would want to get them their money back so much and might be too much stress and wouldnt be able to relax and play my game.

being backed makes you play worse???????


You wanna change that, being backed guarantees you some money back if u bust, which should improve your game, stop you playing uber-tight.

On a serious note, your site is fine, the idea is there, but your niche market is for low buyin online games the way u present.

As for tourney specialist? Any chance of some shots of this?

no idea what this means but basicly Chuck has shown better results in cash games and I better in tourneys which Is why I gave us each different titles.

yes being backed makes me play worse, because it puts more pressure on me to cash because I want my backers to make money off me. For others it might be different but that is just how I feel.


yea im fine with site I just think shabi is pissed because I didnt fly off the handle which was the main reason he posted this thread to begin with to see me flip out or something. Hell he even had Lou jump in and give it a whirl. Think it kinda pissed him off when I just agreed with him and went along with it.

- No, I don't think he was trying to piss you off, I think he came across it and couldn't believe it. Seriously, Team SWA taking over the poker world? ZOMG LOL.

- He didn't have me jump in, I thought it was funny.

- It probably REALLY pissed him off when you played it so cool. You are one smooth mofo, SWA.

Wow. Hell of a thread here.

I don't have any comments on teamSWA talking over the world, but I do have a comment about this:

Of course, if every time you get to $1000, you decide you MUST lose it playing way over your head (cause that's just "fun" money, remember?), you'll never have enough to buy in to the WSOP.

It really is a shame you look at money like that. I mean, had you cashed that out and put it under the mattress, you'd have enough to buy in to a WSOP Event already. Instead, you never will.
