    soaking up ethanol, moving on up
    the last two weeks i went cold turkey from things I had been consuming too much of:
    alcohol
    coffee
    carbonated drinks
    pies
    chips (both fries and crisps)
    confectionery
    cheese.

    Two weeks is over. I feel much the same as i did before = i still feel pretty damn good.
    Anyone interested in talking poker hand lines etc:

    last night i ate freshly caught trout again, well complemented by stirfried vegetables from my garden and some roast veg. It would have gone great with beer. It was tasty regardless.
    poker is. just fine.

    it seems that i have been banned from ftr
    and nobody has deemed it appropriate to tell me why
    beautiful
    respect
    good luck to everyone here with whatever it is they plan to do

    edit, i note that the thread i linked in my previous post has been deleted. I guess that discussing poker strategy is frowned upon by FTR if nobody is getting paid for it?

    edit 2 - i was planning on posting in a few other op threads to say 'best of luck' and sometimes something a little more relevant. It seems that this account is limited to 10 posts only, someone obviously ain't happy with something.
    So, @ all of you, best of luck with everything you pursue. Don't dare offend the wrong people. They may get upset.

    someone smart said this once:
    "No llores porque ya se terminó... sonríe, porque sucedió."
    my time on FTR has been interesting, i've gained heaps. The last month or so, well, who knows what's happening here at FTR...

    a pm i sent to bikes, maybe why i've been banned? who knows. Judge for yourself. And stay here and contribute here if you think this place is a good place to be.

    ----------
    I get it that you dislike me for whatever reason - fwiw I'm pretty much neutral about you right now. d0zer pointed out some reasons for the strat deletion in a way back when full ring thread and they make sense. You're good at thinking/understanding poker, and other than that you're pretty much just another internet identity that I haven't met. Well, slightly more than that. You're someone who has poker insight that I respect, and someone I have played against for $$ on two poker sites.

    It's pretty toxic for ftr that any historic dislike spreads into threads/posts in the forum = I have been guilty of this and am going to think twice before posting anything that could be construed as a personal attack on you. As d0zer suggested, I'll raise any perceived issues via pm rather than via threads (e.g. that whole questionnaire blowup. It's a shame that the feedback thread didn't just end at the 4th or 5th post).

    re kicking me from redshouse and now banning me - well, I guess you can do what you can do. I'm not sure exactly why you choose to do this, obviously red invited me in there ages back. I'm curious as to your reasons, and would appreciate hearing them.
    fwiw stars does appear to be down straight after my question in there - Two Plus Two Poker Forums - View Single Post - Is PokerStars down / lagging?
    this also seems to be affecting why ftr loading is slow at the moment (cos linked stars advertising etc).

    cheers
    davenout.

    I'm not in banned-land anymore toto

    kudos to all those behind-the-scenes-in-mod-land at FTR for addressing my questions re the ban. The reasoning for my original ban, and the reasons for its reversal (plus answers to some other questions) have been posted in the commune thread here: http://www.flopturnriver.com/pokerfo...ml#post2078047

    thanks to everyone who wtf-ed at my ban. To those who feel i should remain banned, well, everyone is entitled to their opinion so fair enough.

    change of subject.
    I got back Sunday evening from another great weekend of climbing and camping. My fingertips are raw after completing over 50 climbs during a boulder comp on saturday, and then backing it up by climbing a few routes on sunday. My body is tired. On Friday I will get the keys to my new house and start moving in. I'll post some house pics in this thread once I've taken some photos. Poker is going well. Still mixing up stakes. Up about 30bi for the month so far over 20k hands. Things still good.

    still a long way from a 100bi month
    all this house excitement and climbing => not playing that much poker
