August 12 – ADD Is Funny

Posted by SplitSuit On August - 12 - 2009

The week is going alright so far. Actually been hustling like a machine getting this little business off the ground. I feel super broke (I’m not…just feel that way) for some odd reason this week, which generally makes me get more business stuff done. I sadly cannot grind when I get in this mindset, but it just gives me more time to get business stuff done. Passive income streams ftw!

By the way, not sure if people reading this have ADD, but I will let you know mine is getting so silly. The funniest thing about ADD is the amount of ironic situations that arise from it. For instance, when I first got out to Vegas my goal was to get adderall or wellbutrin, or something of the like. The great thing about ADD is that you constantly put off things like that. So it has been, give or take, about 3 months since I’ve been in Vegas, and I just FINALLY made an appointment.

I realize I should probably be putting more work into coping with it. I should write more lists, and take advantage of the times I can focus….but I cannot bring myself to do it. I also realize ADD has helped me a ton in poker, so I really can’t knock it that much. The odd thing about ADD kids is they can actually hyper-focus on things they have an interest in. I have an interest in poker and the thought process behind it…and that has helped me spend hours upon hours studying. Gift and a curse I suppose =)

So other than spending lots of hours trying to focus on the tasks at hand, I haven’t been up to too much. Finally got over to the pool at the new place, and was very saddened to see it only went to 4.5ft deep. Which means I cant swim in it. *sigh* I really wanted to swim for exercise, because I hate running, but it turns out I have no choice. And came up with some new ideas for next summer…so we’ll see what amounts from that.

Also, I have been entertaining the idea of staking some new players. If you, or someone you know, might be interested, send me an email (might take me a day or so to respond…so don’t think I’m ignoring you: splitsuit@gmail.com). Must meet these requirements:

1.) currently playing 5NL-25NL
2.) play on FTP or PS
3.) put in at least 25K hands per month
4.) want to be on stake for at least a few months
5.) are willing to get some coaching during the stake
6.) are willing to sign a contract
7.) are a winning player to date over at least 40K hands

If interested, shoot me an email and we can discuss some things.

Hope all is well!

    6 out of 7 aint bad. 25k hands sigh.(real job, lawn business, football umpire, and 2 kids.)

    when you get some meds for ADD, your poker profits are going to sky rocket.

    It is funny how some of the things in life that make us who we are and enable us to reach the heights that we achieve are also the curses that make life difficult.
    Why cant you swim in a 4.5ft deep pool? Is it not long enough or oddly shaped. If not you should be able to swim in something that is 4.5ft deep, but you would know better then I would about the swimability of the pool, lol did I just make up a new word.
    When will you be announcing the business stuff. I am very interested to see what you have going. Hearing about it for months now has my curiosity at the max.
    Good luck in your stakee’s. I need to setup a coaching session with you soon. Sick downswing at the start of the month and need my poker mindset reset and back on track. Been playing 25nl the past couple of days and been crushing so I think I am getting back in the right mindset again.

    MrTaterhead you ump football?! gawd i loved reffing varsity games! can’t do it any longer as my work schedule shifts around (i’m on call for the railroad now).

    SS, sent you an email. JimmyG is an alter ego!

  5. MrTaterhead says:

    yeah Jimmy just started umping football this year. first game is a varsity jamboree on friday. Cant wait.

    @ Tater: reffing football is a ton of fun. used to help out when I was in High school for little league…enjoyed the hell out of it

    @ Thunder: i do in fact believe you made up the word “swimability”…but in the event it catches on, you are getting full credit for it =)

    It’s a very short pool coupled with the fact that it is shallow. not what i need. o well…maybe ill just go get a membership at 24hr and do it to it

    And just let me know when coaching works for you…

    @ Jimmy: Will respond a little later on today =)
