You keep a "safe" amount on-line and have the restsomewhere accessible but not on the poker site, but it remains "poker money" and you use it if you have to.

I don't see how that changes anything.
If you're still keeping the possibility open to use it, doesn't matter if it's on your bank account or in the poker sites really does it? You'd just have to go through more hassle and fees moving it..

More of a way to lower the perceived risk for your parents. But I guess if you are not consistently winning then it's not a good idea.

Do you have balls of titanium to call that ?

If you think about his range its quite an easy call. Villain here was playing like 32/25 and by shoving this river he either has 8x or air. I beat all air hands and there aren't many 8x combos since there are already 2 8s on the board. I wouldn't say its standard, but against this spaz villain its a definite call.

So I just moved back home after finishing my first year at university, it feels so weird. I keep thinking I have stuff to do etc but I have 4 months off now to do whatever the hell I like, feels so good but weird.
I want to make this summer a productive one and not just sit here and watch the days pass by like I did at christmas and Easter so looking forward to the summer.

First task is a 10k weekend to make sure I get the free 80k VPPs!

Poker, fwiw I will be earning at least $6k in bonuses plus any profits which over 4 months should be at least a reasonable sum if I play well and I will continue to try hard to improve and hopefully get some more coaching and progress to 100nl maybe towards the end of the summer like September maybe.
