  • Hey, I'm up more than that in 32 hours in the last week.

    It's called a real job.
    I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

    • Are you a starving grad student? No, I didn't think so.

      • Plus my poker "job" is a lot more fun than your work.

        • I could handle the starving. Been there, done that. It would be the lack of AC that would strike me dead quick.

          • Poker $20/hour versus real job $20/hour aren't comparable, given that: (a) you have to carry inventory when you're playing poker; and (b) the volatility of gains is much higher with poker.

            • OMG POKER IS WELAFARE YOU DIDNT WORK FOR IT!


              Of course I worked for it. It was just fun. I'm not making people give me money, they are agreeing to play a game that involves buying chips. The person who wins the most chips wins the money. Totally voluntary.

                  Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

                          • Final tally for the night: +$200 (I lost a few hands at the end, and decided I should stop).

                            Running tally for the week: +$380 (yesterday and today).

                            I'm pretty happy

                            • How has poker become so popular recently? Every channel has some kind of "World Series of Poker" on it these days.
