Let me know how much you need and I'll have them spot you too.
That is the main problem. You don't really have confidence in your own game. You need to improve before you can play bigger, which is why you should be playing $1/$2 until you are good enough to move up. If you can't beat $1/$2 for the bankroll to play $2/$5, you should never move up. There are no shortcuts. If you are a martial artist, you should know that.

You've come a long way since you were posting questions on this board about how to make sure you were going to qualify for the next tier of unemplyment benefits. Congratulations.

No point explaining at this point, anyone can play 1/2. The level of play on a higher game is much different. I'll just keep grinding on 1/2. I did get some investors so come to Sands and watch me rake it in. And you better believe I'm gonna suck every dollar that I deserve from the government. In the end I'm in a way better place financially & mentally, and will not lose any sleep over this thread as I know it has fired up a lot of you. Ha ha ha!!!

Deserve? What do you DESERVE from the government? Were you collecting unemployment while you were actually making enough money as an instructor and business owner to maintain luxury cars for you your wife & your kids? That sounds more like fraud than deserving.

No, my former employer was kind enough to lay me off, and the gyms are under my wife's name. And I teach for free but they tip me $150.

I assume you talking about no limit, then playing 1/2 or 100/200 are the same. The only different is the dealer get a lot more when you play 100/200 as opposite to 1/2.

So basically you are cheating the system to claim unemployment benefits. Yeah, just the guy people want to "invest" their money with.

Hmmm, and he has given his actual identity in this thread and explained the means of his fraud which cheats taxpayers. Any IRS agents or Nj State fraud enforcers out there...?

how much do you weigh? im at about 175 right now but im pretty cut. i can add 10 pounds if you give me a week or so and i should be very strong at 185. if you cut down to 145 i would feel more comfortable.

I fight at 135lbs and cut to 125. I'll get one of my pro brazilian fighters any weight you want. An of course I've given my actual identity!!! That's what you do when you're not trying to scam someone. I've never hidden my name, where my gyms are, or what my intentions are. I no longer collect unemployment since I file a 1099. At least in poker you are expected to bet or gamble, unlike sports betting. People take a pure sport, where athletes already make millions and then they try to bet on which team will win. I'm not robbing anyone, how about the people that cheat the IRS, embezzle or run their Ponzi scams. It's a free country and no one is twisting your arm to invest or back me. My life will still be good and you will still be miserable. Feel free to come by my gym or Sands if you want to take it further. You guys must really hate your lives or have tons of regrets for not accomplishing anything if life if you have nothing better to do than keep this forum going. Nuff said...
