i owe a lot to pocketfives and probably haven't given much back as of late so here goes. for those unaware i will steal mig's explanation, originally stolen from assasinato:

A stranger is being shown around a village that he has just become part of. He is shown a well and his guide says "On any day except Tuesday, you can shout any question down that well and you'll be told the answer." The man seems pretty impressed, and so he shouts down, "Why not on Tuesday?" A voice from in the well shouts back, "Because on Tuesday, it's your day in the well."

So yeah, essentially, in this thread, I'll answer any question you have about playing professionally, the game, myself, or any random question you have that might not even to do with poker.




i will try to be as honest as possible and not sugar coat stuff. okay ask away bros

1. Do you think playing on certain days/times is more beneficial then other days/times for w/e reason excluding obv sunday. I mean more during the week. If so why/why not.
(ie do you think its better to play during the day/night/late night est. idk if im wording this right but ive thought about it on multiple occasions)

2. Do you ever feel "trapped" into doing this with all of you success

3. When you first started to get some recognition and becoming more known what was the hardest part and what was the biggest part of your continued success

I havent posted in any of these but was excited when I saw you were doing one fwiw

MarkFSU1: 

how long were you playing before you felt like you just "get it" and started crushing everything on the regular...


 


i remember playing on pacific poker with like a $600 roll maybe 4 years ago. pacific was one of those sites attached to a sportsbook so most of the players were gamblers who had no idea what they were doing. i didn't either but just by shoving a lot i was able to win the 30 turbo on there in between classes a few times in a month and thought iw as the man. spread the money on other sites against and got my ass beat.

probably 1.5-2 years til i felt like i was crushing in the real tournaments but in fairness the games were much much easier back then.
