Shit Morten =) U must be dead tired. Really annoying that u didnt got better situations against him :( and earned a couple of buyins more. But +11 buyins is nice. But a long session :)

This was exciting reading :) I guess i also will get into those situations and sit for a long time when there is a big whale and I have the time for it. Sometime in the future when there is more time for poker =D Since im old pro computer gamer, I was accually in the worlds best "Return To Castle Wolfenstein" team "Infensus" when we won the championship at Quakcon in Dallas 2003 (sponsored by ID Software), I have the capability to sit for long periods.

Played for 2 years but the months before the competition we sat like 10-15 hours every day. A nice earning of 20.000$ splitted by 6 players wasnt the best $/hour =D hehe. I know Im now using the same will to get better at poker and that feels good. I also have a little family so I have other things to think about aswell these days. But if I one day can make a living on poker and work lesser I would be playing more and learn more.

Hope u make more of those kind of posts in the future :)

Hehe =) yes. There are more logical things to think about in poker. In FPShoot Em up I did go alot on my reflexes. And knowings about how the other players thoughts and movements. That I feel I can have with me in other things I do.

Hope u will sleep good next night! :D

Nice session there Mort.

In my busy life outside of poker it has happened a few times I just had to leave while I was in good position against a player like that.... Good thing you sat through it, allthough it messed up your rythm apparantly...

cheers Erik
