I've mostly been using it for rap lyrics, but this seemed quite appropriate Smile



Now this is what I call a good time. :-)

Here's the first back-to-English version from the list:

"To book this groundbreaking series of Tommy is a great friend, the past has been lovingly crafted one year."

Let's pretend that was two sentences, and look at the first one:

"To book this groundbreaking series of Tommy is a great friend."

I interpret this to mean that somewhere there is someone who has a great friend who is a bookie who is taking action on the series. I haven't yet conjectured what sort of action that would be. Maybe the second sentence will provide some clues:

"The past has been lovingly crafted one year."

Hmm. This sounds suspiciously like past posting. I wouldn't take the bet, whatever it is. Or maybe it's a reference to tender-hearted history book writers. Hard to say. Japanese is tricky.

It's what I tend to do.
I start tilting because of ..something (my 4 biggest ones are a couple of posts above this post).. while I am tilting really hard I can't quit (especially when tilting SUPER hard) because I keep telling myself I am not tilting, and then I start depositing money to make up for all the money I am losing at the moment because of tilt....

It's an amazing form of tilt, I should record it on video, must be youtube worthy

Thanks for all the awesome videos Tommy & Wayne, really changed my life.
What I consider essential is the great delusion topic. I watched Fight Club again just a few days ago and Tyler says "everything you posses, someday posses you" and I think this is true. But how do I get unattached to all those material things. Knowing that I am attached to them doesn't get me unattached to them.

You might want to see if you can convert your "deposit tilt" into "watch how fast I can use my scissors to cut power to my computer" tilt. This could be a +EV play for you. :-)

The "path" of "enlightenment," whatever it is, and wherever it goes, is first and foremost different than the path you are walking. Attachment is so much a part of us that almost everyone almost all the time doesn't even know it's there. To undo something this fundamental is no minor matter. The only way you can gradually increase your non-attachment is to be willing to do some drastic shit. And then, you have to learn what that stuff is. And then, you have to do it about a billion times. So the answer to your question isn't "Here's what to do." The answer is, "Are you willing to do anything to get rid of the suffering that attachment causes?" If you are insufficiently desperate, then information about "how to" is unlikely to help, because you won't be insane enough yet to actually take up the practice. If you are ready, I think this is as good a place to start as any:

YES. Finally that small but noticeable feeling of something being incomplete in my life is gone. This has been the best series I've watched on any poker training site. Congratulations Tommy, Wayne, and DC. You are the nuts.

Sincerest gratitude Tommy and Wayne for the best and most helpful series of poker videos ever. I'd imagine Tommy's gonna be booked pretty solid for coaching for a while now if he wasn't already. This series is going to be have a permanent place on my iPhone.

I can't afford the coaching, but I'll sure be buying Tommy's book this week. Thanks again.
