I'm glad because you have succeeded to improve your health condition and i hope your health to grow even more. It's not easy when peoples have health problems and all we have to do is to protect our health as much as we can. I can ask about the name of this YouTube Channel or is not allowed here?

To be honest I am not sure if it is against the rules to give out my youtube channel name or not. however I have not actually started doing anything with it yet but i most likely will very soon.
hope things have been going well for you. wishing you all the best be cool

So I have made a small cash deposit into poker account on Pstars. I have play 1 Sit & Go so far and won it
Found playing that one game very tiring. so I immediately took a break. it seems I do not have the stamina for playing I had before. this really sucks out load.

It might have been tiring, because it took too long, and you got bored with it? Some of us cant play the game for too long. I know this for a fact, since i cant stand playing for too long in a tournament. I cant say i get tired but i really get bored with it And when that point comes, in a couple o minutes im out

You might be right. I might have been because the game did seem to go on forever. I was so glad when it was over that I just wanted to go lie down. maybe the next one will go better for me time wise. hope you are well

The fact you ended up in first place even if you were getting tired of it showed you still have to skills of playing profitable. Playing just 1 sit and go table can be annoying , same is for 1 cash table. As especially in low buy-ins you just have to wait for the big hands and try to make money of them.
But hey maybe you better play cashgames because then you can lie down as you feel like it,

Finishing in first place is a booster. Not only in your bankroll, but also in your game. So besides the fatigue, you got a nice prize for your troubles, and like thefly said, you saw that you still have what it takes to play the games. Just cross your fingers and get more results like that

Welcome back dude, how can i forget the dude that helped me with couple of buyins on PS in order to finish the series our poker federation had there, and clash with you on the poker tables glad to see you are better now (health wise) but it looks like that pause from playing poker has manifested with you getting tired from just one S&G maaaaan that sucks, guess tournaments are out for now, but i have a hunch youll get on the horse in short time, so keep on it dude P.S: Plz restrain your self from talking politics, its the easiest way to alienate people and create devision, by the comment you made about Trump u sound like those leftist that would eat their child first then admit something good trump did, btw if he was so bad and evil how the hell did he won the presidency?!?!?!

Welcome back Ronin, glad to hear you're feeling better and looking to get into some action. I can relate to your story quite well. I've been away for quite a long time myself, over a year, and just got out of the hospital with some serious complications last month. Although I was only in for a week so you got me beat there.

Yea being in the hospital really sucks. It was so pissed that they would not even let me log on to BRM and read the forum. The hospital would not allow anything even remotely close to a gambling site to be accessed. I was so glad to get home, they wanted me to stay a few more weeks but I wanted out way to bad. later mates

Ha ha I know that exact feeling my hospital has the same blocking service that negates anything gambling related. I know it's a big country but seeing as the majority of Canada lives in Southern Ontario it's worth a shot: Were you at Toronto General or a hospital in the UHN network by chance? If so we may have been in at the same time.

Well that is news for me. A hospital not allowing gambling sites to be accessed. I had never heard of this before, not even thought about it. I can see a reasoning on this, well i think but never thought there would be an implementation anywhere in the world, once you are allowed to gamble anywhere else in the country. Or you have other places also, that you are not to gamble from?

Well it's not that they target gambling sites only. It's just a general blocking software they use to try prevent people fro doing things that may be illegal or costly on their network. It would block porn sites and torrenting for example too. Basically they're providing free internet there but don't want people abusing it. If you bring your phone and use your own mobile internet you can gamble all you want in the hospital, it's not illegal they just don't support it.

The problem with the hospital is that I was in an isolation room with heart monitoring equipment in use next door so so cell phone use was allowed in my room. I had absolutely no option available to me for my entire 3 month stay.

When it comes to health, then you can leave the technology to the side and watch TV. You can read books or to make crosswords. You do not have to participate in gambling if you are a person who gets angry quickly. The important thing is to fix quickly in any hospital.

That definitely sucks, at least when I was in I could use my laptop and the hospital had wifi. I hate the TVs in hospitals, tiny scsreen, rip off price, and crap television, lol. At least here in Canada. 3 months without internet would be what did me in Glad you somehow survived it, ha ha.
The East coast is nice did some road tripping out that way a couple years ago.

It is logical blocking some sites, when you are offering free internet. You want it as clean as you can. And from one point of view, if for example you are paying for the hospital, you dont want patients losing their money in gambling sites. Better keep the money to pay the bill later
Now you are free to play poker whenever you like ronin

Oh yeah Mober I totally agree with them putting restrictions on their network, I mean they're giving it away for free it's not much to ask that you use it in a way that doesn't put them at legal risk. Online gambling is still a bit of a grey area here in Canada so I totally understand why they'd pretty it not on their network.
glad to see you are better now (health wise) but it looks like that pause from playing
