Onlinepoker is not nearl as profitable as it used to be a few years ago, cashgame tables is 99% tight nit textbook poker.

Considering how mentally draining it is I'd rather pursue school and a 'normal' job and occasionally play a MIIT and hope for a big scoop xD

Best bet is to go from pro lol to online poker. If you're serious about it, and really grind, it's almost guaranteed money. It sure is fucking soul sucking, but if you're all about $$$ it's an alternative without an education.

AKA the starcraft strategy, quite a few of the original foreigners in Korea during BW went on to do pretty well in poker.

The education from wickd is only high school. So its not that impressive and you cant get a respected job heobvious needs to get a degree first. But wickd is pretty delusional (just watch his stream for 30 minutes) and listen to what he says. The dude got some weird talks just like the start of LCS with his excuses that they dont play that well because they cant play games 24/7 because their mommy isnt there for all the cooking/cleaning(he is basically a child with a gift for games, but the rest its pretty hopeless).

You can easily get a good job without a degree in Denmark.

Scarra with soledad obrien. Pretty big news

http://www.twitch.tv/scarra/b/469155940


So I watched a bit of this video and I feel a little disappointed. I've watched Soledad O'Brien since she was on the Discovery Channel, and she's a great reporter. She does her due diligence and really does a great job at presenting a story. Scarra does an ok job at explaining some things but he doesn't really suck anyone in. The video is 30min long but they are breaking stuff down by the half way mark. They could have easily been there for ages if he was just a bit more engaging.


::The story Soledad is doing is probably more about streamers than LoL itself but he still could have been more engaging and show why he plays and enjoys the game.

I got a feeling from it like they told Scarra to act like he does when he streams. Sure she chimed in for questions but they mostly wanted him to be himself so they could focus on the streaming aspect of League. Scarra can't be that daft.

Bracket for the OGN Winter qualifier. Remember online part will be covered by nicegametv and the offline part should be covered by OGN again.

Definitely can agree about poker... I've tried building some bankroll but starting at 50 I only managed to go up to around 120 and it took forever. There's no stupid loose-passive fish almost anywhere, most of the players even at micro stakes use advanced moves like checkraising and blindraising and button reraise-folding and while it's possible to make a profit it's nowhere near free money and indeed, I think that getting a proper education and a job would be much easier.

Group A: KT Arrows should have an easy route to offline part
Group B: Probably Group Final between Mook and Prime Sentinel
Group C: Depending if CTU with a new lineup can recreate their powerlevel from last Season. The final would be between Apdo's team (양학하러왔습니다)
Group D: Probably Blastic Gaming
Group E: Team OP, the two new sponsored teams Bigfile and Xenics Blast in one Group. This is pretty unlucky for these teams.
Group F: Alienware and probably Sirius Altair
Group G: Xenics Storm clear favorite
Group H: once again the winner of Alienware and Sirius has the best chance to advance.
Group I: SKT T1
Group J: should be decided between lg-im and prime optimus

Not sure on CTU, they've lost riris/wolf and nonameD so unless someone new steps up I don't think they'll go far.

So I´ve been playing Nasus top a lot. Blind picking it and if they get vlad I just try and get jungle. Doing this with some decent success, but lately red pot riven is shitting all over me level 1-2. Do I just have to stay way back or what is the plan here ?

If I get to 6 without dying or going back its almost always a sure win, but Riven or sometimes even Lee with redpot seems really hard. Maybe I need armor or hp quints ? I´ve been running movement quints.

I'd say just push the lane so you get level 2 first then maybe ask for a gank timing around then.
