What Happens If You Rent Uhaul For In Town

Rush Poker cash game

Today I want to make this gift
Claudio Russo excellent poker player and friend wrote an article on Rush Poker FullTilt
The strategy we propose is' that for low stakes but personally I think with the right fixes you can apply even to the middle if the thinking process and 'obviously' articulated at levels above the article 'presented very well and I think it is very useful and necessary to read if you want to try in this sport that attracts us very much.
Thanks to Claudio that he knew very well argued!

FT continues to give satisfaction to those GD deny me, and without going into much detail (if not touched on BlackSaphire write and otherwise make Rush ... showing too many things I do not like) I put down an analysis of the Strategy Game I'm taking this month.
The specific analysis of the numbers is done on a session about 1.700 hands, but the average of the results that I am taking home is the one from earlier this month (20,000 hands, and hewed to 13bb/100).

A premise: I will not speak of the Range (mica want me completely disgraced the game ... for what is to be paid coaching) Game-only plan.
The% you see is ... Action Dependant not make the mistake of reading as a range of cards.
Given the underlying riskiness of the strategy, the range you have to decide for yourself so that it is Pocket you are able to play successfully in post-flop.

Other caveats: you will very often on a roller coaster ... There will be sessions in which
Op will always be full as turkeys at Christmas, CS who will follow up with Air at the River and then win with bottom pair and most mundane situations where Op will close too many strengths.

The first 15-20 minutes of each meeting will also be hardly profitable, as it will be the stage where the pulse to the Field.
Also in high-traffic times, after about twenty minutes multitabling you were at the table more than once with the whole field: take the opportunity to write down who knows how to fold, some calla infinite, who plays for you.
knowledge will be a "costly", as In the meantime, however, will apply your strategy, but valuable for the pursuit of the session.

The risk also depends on the fact that our strategy will benefit greatly from playing Deep, so we'll get up from the table only around $ 50 ... Gamble Air 180bb with notes on the front without having Op is not a strategy, it is a suicide attempt.
For this we will carry out the attack that will always tell a story "credible" in terms of betting pattern ... we do not gamble, we're playing poker.

Part of the strategy to omit in this post is exactly that elative to play post-flop, where you still have a big advantage over OP: they play with the cards you have, you can change your mind about what rappresentre depending on what falls Flop

Personally I prefer to sit still short ($ 10) so as to risk the slightest knowledge of the phase field and then when I push more I know who the front.

Speaking of risk played absolutely in BR!
Having a swing of 2 / 3 buyin (meaning as a "buyin" the total field that you put in on 4 tables) is a second with this strategy, so watch the pen. And the first sign of

(EV adjusted) $ 72.83 16.18
bb/100

bb/100 As you can see is good, too if not sensational ... what makes a profitable strategy is the large number of hands per hour and we play to those who have it, the rake (the session that we are looking at producing about $ 7 rakeback, which are other 28bb).
Note that although we are the hyper-aggressive, we have also Sculati slightly (that's the difference between $ 5.5 and $ $ EV).

VPIP% 16.7% 16.0

PFR PFR / VPIP Ratio 96

Globally we see a game only slightly Loose than usual, and in any case extremely aggressive (do not enter almost never flat call), but things change when we analyze the positions.

Preflop Positional Awareness 5.31

closer we move towards the button, the more we extend the range.
interesting exception is the SB. You play two opposing factors:
1. BB knows that making a Raise we patiently waited for everyone to fold, therefore tend to give us a minimum of credit.
2. We OOP for the whole hand ... and we like to have known little less clear on Op

Unlike our range Steal from anywhere that OU is on Pot O, extremely broad range of the general re-Steal and Steal from SB and BB tighten significantly.
This string is much more dependent by the action of our previous papers (though clearly not going to create more action with 83off).

The result of a careful selection of the spots come into play where and how to do it regardless the cards is clear from the data of showdown.
Our strategy is to respond successfully pre-showdown (see below) and it will arrive in SD only around 20% of the time.
A correct reading of Op we can still win the majority of the time that we are in hand to the SD and more than 50% of hands in which we see the flop.

the level of aggression has two main features:
1. Extremely high
2. Continuous!

Our strategy is not based on groped a C-bet the flop and then give up the Pot .. mentalizing we need to keep the maximum pressure from the Flop to the River.
It 's interesting to see the value of Success several fold in the Street that gradually we get during the hand.

One thing that is not read by the State (and on which I would like to remain vague) is the Bet-size ... Bet those 90% of the 3 street are extremely variable as size and bind to the need to tell a story that is both credible and scary for Op ..

River Call Efficiency 3.26

An important indicator of our ability to read and Board Op is given by the River Call Efficiency: This indicator is nothing but the ROI on our hands that we play until the showdown.
I think it's obvious that we are applying the strategy that will lead to extremely inflate the pot, so even a relatively ROI% low results in a number of $

Flop Fold vs 80 Cbet
Flop Raise Fold vs 50%

Last but not least, indeed crucial to bring positive results, we show that the ability to fold in front of Action despite aggressive we will almost always making a reasonable investment pre-flop.

In some cases we will surely Call / Bet Turn rather than direct Raise the flop, but remember one thing: we're playing on pressure and position, most of the playing cards Op ... Op out if a betta after we betta 3-pre-flop, in 80% of cases will be the case to give him credit for a hand more than decent. How much you see folded

Raise a less of our C-bet the flop ... it is clear that depends on the situation, but many hands are worth a further attempt to turn to bring home the Pot Op
Some will try to steal the pot raise on the flop, very few have the balls to resist further aggression on the Turn .

Anyway, sometimes you even have a real point at hand.

In The Deep End By Kate Cann Read Online For Free

The Business "doped" the supplement

Description: Alan Aragon sheds light on what are the realistic results that can achieve a natural bodybuilder, compared with the claims of Biotest and its representatives on site Tnation about their latest product.







This first article is a translation of an article by Alan Aragon and aims to shed a little light on the techniques adopted by some companies unbridled business. In this case we refer to Biotest, which produces supplements advertised mainly through site-mirror T-nation (now Tmuscle) and assigns the role of voice to authors (by now very few saw the clear purpose of the site Articles and spread it) self-proclaimed elite part of the preparations. T-nation is an example of a good project gone bad due to greed, if years ago you could read articles enlightening and communicate with employees of the caliber of Ian King, Charles Poliquin and Paul Check through the forum today just a few moment to realize how the noble ideal of a free transmission of knowledge has been devoured by the business integration. If before the revolution it was possible to discuss civilly the texts of the authors and the choices of the site, now who is pulling against censored posts were closed and all the indifference of almost all users, who idolize the few active members of the staff (who obviously have their own benefit and their party, more or less) and they prefer big words plucked out of thin air to the evidence of scientific studies.

How to write an article earlier in the presentation of the Blog, it was founded as a container of articles and translations that the only interest to do a little light in a darkness that makes it almost impossible to our already difficult path to a physical muscular obtained without shortcuts.

Supplement Marketing on Steroids


by Alan Aragon

bold statements VS realistic expectations.
has recently been brought to my attention by an avalanche of e-mail an article on T-nation. These emails expressing all but the most common feeling was disbelief. "I, Bodybuilder" is the prelude to the launch of a new supplement called Anaconda, and is proposed as a conversation between the staff-writer Nate Green and the owner of Biotest, Tim Patterson.

For most of the forum members of T-nation waiting for the release of "I, Bodybuilder" and Anaconda seems to have the same capacity as the second coming of the Savior. To quote the video present in the opening page of the article, the product / protocol was "the result of a secret project" with which the consumer may have the experience to "build muscle mass at the maximum speed allowed by a human being."

This exaggerated propaganda is part of a business course, but there is no doubt that many young people who will hold on blindly believe in it. These are the statements in the video and the third page of the article:

Christian Thibaudeau earned 12.25KG in 6 weeks and increased the load of the seated overhead presses up to 170kg for 5 reps in clusters.
Sebastien Cossette 9KG earned in 8 week and has increased his squat of 45kg front.

In contrast with previous reports, that's personally collected data about realistic gains in muscle mass depending on the degree to which it belongs. These data were collected over 15 years working with athletes in particular natural:







Realistic Rates of Lean Body Mass Gain Based on Training Status





Level Training Definition Monthly Gain (% of total weight)
Beginner Less than 2 years of training consisting 1.0-1.5% (0.7-1 kg / month)
Intermediate 2-4 years of consistent training 0.5-1.0% (0.4 -0.7 kg / month)
Advanced More than 4 years of training consisting 0.25-0.5% (0.2-0.4 kg / month)

* Women Can Expect to Achieve the lower end These ranges of at best.


personal note: The problem of realistic gain of muscle mass has been discussed in detail in the article: What's My Genetic Muscular Potential .

The cream of Bodybuilding.
As you can see, the expectation of T-nation are far greater than those experienced by my clients and real students. Doing some simple calculations we can say that the staff at T-nation state a gain of about 1.6kg per week (6.3KG per month), or 4 times earnings higher than those experienced by beginners and 15 times higher than those that could realistically achieve an advanced.
Let's take a step back to look General. It 's rare for an athlete from the full skeletal development between 20 and 30 earn more than 25kg of muscle throughout your career. Imagine a graduate of becoming an athlete of 84kg 107KG between 25 and 30 years. This is a terrific result. How much?
To give a clearer idea, here is a list of 12 Mr.Olympia:

Winners Mr.Olympia




Name in Victoria .. . Height Weight Race
Dexter Jackson 2008 5'6 .5 " 104 kg.
Jay Cutler 2006,2007,2009 5′9″ 116kg.
Ronnie Coleman 1998-2005 5′10″ 123 kg.
Dorian Yates 1992-1997 5′10″ 116 kg.
Lee Haney 1984-1991 5′11″ 107 kg.
Samir Bannout 1983 5′8″ 95 kg.
Chris Dickerson 1982 5′6″ 86 kg.
Franco Colombu 1976, 1981 5'4 " 84 kg.
Arnold Schwarzenegger 1970-1975, 1980 6'1 " 105 kg.
Frank Zane 1977-1979 5'9 " 84 kg.
Sergio Oliva 1967-1969 5'8 " 102 kg.
Larry Scott 1965-1966 5'7 " 93 kg.

* These heights and weights are averages from Various sources online.

For anyone who does not agree that our example of 107KG (% fat with a number) is not impressive, consider that only 3 of 12 Mr.Olympia weighed more, and it is assumed that All winners were certainly natural. If we consider that these 12 people had undoubtedly an extraordinary genetic which added the use of anabolic substances, we can better understand what the real expectations for a natural genetic engineering in the media.
Returning then to the statements of the staff of T-nation, that is comical claim that in 2 months or less you can gain a mass muscle that would normally take 2-3 years of work! If perhaps a small number of people from genetics and unusual (not only) can aspire to these results, most of the gain would still KG KG resumed after a long period of ipocalorica.Tale diet re-gain weight usually concomitant with the honeymoon with creatine and / or other substances (anabolic steroids). However, one of the statements in the article is that Kevin Norbert has lost 6kg of fat while increasing lean body mass 11KG of its own weight. We're talking about a total gain 17kg in 8 weeks? At the end of the article
tones are lowered, and the same Tim Patterson says

"Anaconda + Using" I, Bodybuilder "we expect the athlete 9KG average gain muscle, and perhaps more, during the first 15 weeks of the program. We define this as an average athlete a man accustomed to training in the form of 80KG hard, dedicated work hard, who wants to build muscle mass as quickly as possible. "

Research shakes his head.
is that 6.3KG/mese promised to become top of this article 2.4, which is still double the as noted in Patterson says that while beginners will gain from a intermedio.Bene ... But what does the research? ?
compare these expectations with the results obtained from athletes supported by anabolic substances, through a study of Hartgens and Kuiper [1] :

Although many strength athletes bring back about 10-15KG gains resulting from the use of anabolic substances, such alterations have not been documented in studies well conducted. Most of the studies shows that body weight may increase by 2-5kg in a short period (\u0026lt;10 weeks) of usage of anabolic substances. higher gain was measured by Casner and colleagues after 6 weeks of administration of stanozolol (7kg in 6 weeks), while in another case was registered an increase of 12.7KG in 2 years of recruitment.

gain greater known in the literature is therefore of 7kg in 6 weeks, about 1.1kg per week, or half kg per week less than is claimed by the staff of T-nation, and about half a kg more than stated at the end of article.
However there is no need to use the term higher than the results obtained from doped athletes. As seen, the norm for a doped athlete is a gain of 2-5kg in 10 weeks and 2 years in 12.7KG.
E 'must be underlined that these results were obtained through the use of anabolic substances Taking into account that the staff at T-nation considers realistic gain of 2.4kg per month for natural, this gain is still 38 % faster than observed in athletes supported by anabolic substances. Keep in mind that the more creatine supplementation for 12 weeks has been shown to lead to average earnings of 2KG in natural athlete [2] .
So if we think the association of creatine + anabolic substances would have a gain of 1.7kg per month, while the gains from T-nation protocol would still be 30% faster.

Another study of subjects supported by anabolic substances, duration of this time year, was led by Alén and Häkkinen [3] who examined data from a an elite bodybuilder. During the year, the lean mass of the subject went from 83 to 90kg (+7 KG). The intake of Anabolic was interrupted for 4 weeks during the total period of 12 months. So if a bodybuilder elite class supported by anabolic substances 7KG earned in 12 months, how is it that a natural bodybuilder in the middle and not beginner get the same results but less than 4 months?? Only the staff of the Biotest know this secret ...

return to Earth.
Let's get real ... if we wanted to go in 5 years by a common weight of 83kg to that of a deity olimpiaca 107KG we should gain about 5kg of the year ... A principality can earn twice that 5KG in its first year of training? The answer is yes.

However, moving towards a more advanced level, the gains slow down to about half, and fell progressively as you get closer to their potential. With respect to their potential, perhaps the most comprehensive study was conducted on subjects from natural Casey Butt. You can learn more by checking on its website The WeighTrainer - Your Maximum Muscular bodyweight and Measurements.
Finally, here is an excerpt from the article that could be addressed in some way to respond to my article (...) An objective comparison between milk chocolate and Surge: ( LeFaticheDiSisifo : This article will be translated to short)

Nate Green: Nick gained 9kg of new muscle and increased his bench press of 25kg, one thing is addictive.
Tim Patterson: Having experienced similar results from week to week, it is impossible to be satisfied with anything else. These guys have become fanatics - we are completely set - and simply refuse to train in another way.
Nate Green: I can not give you wrong, there is none at this point.
Tim Patterson: Oh, I'm sure there will be two dozen internet trolls moron filled with pus that can not wait to prove that they had no benefit from surges of insulin and HTH (hypertrophy of the fibers fast-twitch. nd LeFaticheDiSisifo ) and everything you need is just 'chocolate milk and a banana'.

... Talking is easy scientifically unsupported, on the other hand statements blatant marketing can be expensive, they are $ 80 for a jar of Anaconda. The name is appropriate, because the product sounds like a good way to choke your wallet.

In The Deep End By Kate Cann Read Online For Free

The Business "doped" the supplement

Description: Alan Aragon sheds light on what are the realistic results that can achieve a natural bodybuilder, compared with the claims of Biotest and its representatives on site Tnation about their latest product.







This first article is a translation of an article by Alan Aragon and aims to shed a little light on the techniques adopted by some companies unbridled business. In this case we refer to Biotest, which produces supplements advertised mainly through site-mirror T-nation (now Tmuscle) and assigns the role of voice to authors (by now very few saw the clear purpose of the site Articles and spread it) self-proclaimed elite part of the preparations. T-nation is an example of a good project gone bad due to greed, if years ago you could read articles enlightening and communicate with employees of the caliber of Ian King, Charles Poliquin and Paul Check through the forum today just a few moment to realize how the noble ideal of a free transmission of knowledge has been devoured by the business integration. If before the revolution it was possible to discuss civilly the texts of the authors and the choices of the site, now who is pulling against censored posts were closed and all the indifference of almost all users, who idolize the few active members of the staff (who obviously have their own benefit and their party, more or less) and they prefer big words plucked out of thin air to the evidence of scientific studies.

How to write an article earlier in the presentation of the Blog, it was founded as a container of articles and translations that the only interest to do a little light in a darkness that makes it almost impossible to our already difficult path to a physical muscular obtained without shortcuts.

Supplement Marketing on Steroids


by Alan Aragon

bold statements VS realistic expectations.
has recently been brought to my attention by an avalanche of e-mail an article on T-nation. These emails expressing all but the most common feeling was disbelief. "I, Bodybuilder" is the prelude to the launch of a new supplement called Anaconda, and is proposed as a conversation between the staff-writer Nate Green and the owner of Biotest, Tim Patterson.

For most of the forum members of T-nation waiting for the release of "I, Bodybuilder" and Anaconda seems to have the same capacity as the second coming of the Savior. To quote the video present in the opening page of the article, the product / protocol was "the result of a secret project" with which the consumer may have the experience to "build muscle mass at the maximum speed allowed by a human being."

This exaggerated propaganda is part of a business course, but there is no doubt that many young people who will hold on blindly believe in it. These are the statements in the video and the third page of the article:

Christian Thibaudeau earned 12.25KG in 6 weeks and increased the load of the seated overhead presses up to 170kg for 5 reps in clusters.
Sebastien Cossette 9KG earned in 8 week and has increased his squat of 45kg front.

In contrast with previous reports, that's personally collected data about realistic gains in muscle mass depending on the degree to which it belongs. These data were collected over 15 years working with athletes in particular natural:







Realistic Rates of Lean Body Mass Gain Based on Training Status





Level Training Definition Monthly Gain (% of total weight)
Beginner Less than 2 years of training consisting 1.0-1.5% (0.7-1 kg / month)
Intermediate 2-4 years of consistent training 0.5-1.0% (0.4 -0.7 kg / month)
Advanced More than 4 years of training consisting 0.25-0.5% (0.2-0.4 kg / month)

* Women Can Expect to Achieve the lower end These ranges of at best.


personal note: The problem of realistic gain of muscle mass has been discussed in detail in the article: What's My Genetic Muscular Potential .

The cream of Bodybuilding.
As you can see, the expectation of T-nation are far greater than those experienced by my clients and real students. Doing some simple calculations we can say that the staff at T-nation state a gain of about 1.6kg per week (6.3KG per month), or 4 times earnings higher than those experienced by beginners and 15 times higher than those that could realistically achieve an advanced.
Let's take a step back to look General. It 's rare for an athlete from the full skeletal development between 20 and 30 earn more than 25kg of muscle throughout your career. Imagine a graduate of becoming an athlete of 84kg 107KG between 25 and 30 years. This is a terrific result. How much?
To give a clearer idea, here is a list of 12 Mr.Olympia:

Winners Mr.Olympia




Name in Victoria .. . Height Weight Race
Dexter Jackson 2008 5'6 .5 " 104 kg.
Jay Cutler 2006,2007,2009 5′9″ 116kg.
Ronnie Coleman 1998-2005 5′10″ 123 kg.
Dorian Yates 1992-1997 5′10″ 116 kg.
Lee Haney 1984-1991 5′11″ 107 kg.
Samir Bannout 1983 5′8″ 95 kg.
Chris Dickerson 1982 5′6″ 86 kg.
Franco Colombu 1976, 1981 5'4 " 84 kg.
Arnold Schwarzenegger 1970-1975, 1980 6'1 " 105 kg.
Frank Zane 1977-1979 5'9 " 84 kg.
Sergio Oliva 1967-1969 5'8 " 102 kg.
Larry Scott 1965-1966 5'7 " 93 kg.

* These heights and weights are averages from Various sources online.

For anyone who does not agree that our example of 107KG (% fat with a number) is not impressive, consider that only 3 of 12 Mr.Olympia weighed more, and it is assumed that All winners were certainly natural. If we consider that these 12 people had undoubtedly an extraordinary genetic which added the use of anabolic substances, we can better understand what the real expectations for a natural genetic engineering in the media.
Returning then to the statements of the staff of T-nation, that is comical claim that in 2 months or less you can gain a mass muscle that would normally take 2-3 years of work! If perhaps a small number of people from genetics and unusual (not only) can aspire to these results, most of the gain would still KG KG resumed after a long period of ipocalorica.Tale diet re-gain weight usually concomitant with the honeymoon with creatine and / or other substances (anabolic steroids). However, one of the statements in the article is that Kevin Norbert has lost 6kg of fat while increasing lean body mass 11KG of its own weight. We're talking about a total gain 17kg in 8 weeks? At the end of the article
tones are lowered, and the same Tim Patterson says

"Anaconda + Using" I, Bodybuilder "we expect the athlete 9KG average gain muscle, and perhaps more, during the first 15 weeks of the program. We define this as an average athlete a man accustomed to training in the form of 80KG hard, dedicated work hard, who wants to build muscle mass as quickly as possible. "

Research shakes his head.
is that 6.3KG/mese promised to become top of this article 2.4, which is still double the as noted in Patterson says that while beginners will gain from a intermedio.Bene ... But what does the research? ?
compare these expectations with the results obtained from athletes supported by anabolic substances, through a study of Hartgens and Kuiper [1] :

Although many strength athletes bring back about 10-15KG gains resulting from the use of anabolic substances, such alterations have not been documented in studies well conducted. Most of the studies shows that body weight may increase by 2-5kg in a short period (\u0026lt;10 weeks) of usage of anabolic substances. higher gain was measured by Casner and colleagues after 6 weeks of administration of stanozolol (7kg in 6 weeks), while in another case was registered an increase of 12.7KG in 2 years of recruitment.

gain greater known in the literature is therefore of 7kg in 6 weeks, about 1.1kg per week, or half kg per week less than is claimed by the staff of T-nation, and about half a kg more than stated at the end of article.
However there is no need to use the term higher than the results obtained from doped athletes. As seen, the norm for a doped athlete is a gain of 2-5kg in 10 weeks and 2 years in 12.7KG.
E 'must be underlined that these results were obtained through the use of anabolic substances Taking into account that the staff at T-nation considers realistic gain of 2.4kg per month for natural, this gain is still 38 % faster than observed in athletes supported by anabolic substances. Keep in mind that the more creatine supplementation for 12 weeks has been shown to lead to average earnings of 2KG in natural athlete [2] .
So if we think the association of creatine + anabolic substances would have a gain of 1.7kg per month, while the gains from T-nation protocol would still be 30% faster.

Another study of subjects supported by anabolic substances, duration of this time year, was led by Alén and Häkkinen [3] who examined data from a an elite bodybuilder. During the year, the lean mass of the subject went from 83 to 90kg (+7 KG). The intake of Anabolic was interrupted for 4 weeks during the total period of 12 months. So if a bodybuilder elite class supported by anabolic substances 7KG earned in 12 months, how is it that a natural bodybuilder in the middle and not beginner get the same results but less than 4 months?? Only the staff of the Biotest know this secret ...

return to Earth.
Let's get real ... if we wanted to go in 5 years by a common weight of 83kg to that of a deity olimpiaca 107KG we should gain about 5kg of the year ... A principality can earn twice that 5KG in its first year of training? The answer is yes.

However, moving towards a more advanced level, the gains slow down to about half, and fell progressively as you get closer to their potential. With respect to their potential, perhaps the most comprehensive study was conducted on subjects from natural Casey Butt. You can learn more by checking on its website The WeighTrainer - Your Maximum Muscular bodyweight and Measurements.
Finally, here is an excerpt from the article that could be addressed in some way to respond to my article (...) An objective comparison between milk chocolate and Surge: ( LeFaticheDiSisifo : This article will be translated to short)

Nate Green: Nick gained 9kg of new muscle and increased his bench press of 25kg, one thing is addictive.
Tim Patterson: Having experienced similar results from week to week, it is impossible to be satisfied with anything else. These guys have become fanatics - we are completely set - and simply refuse to train in another way.
Nate Green: I can not give you wrong, there is none at this point.
Tim Patterson: Oh, I'm sure there will be two dozen internet trolls moron filled with pus that can not wait to prove that they had no benefit from surges of insulin and HTH (hypertrophy of the fibers fast-twitch. nd LeFaticheDiSisifo ) and everything you need is just 'chocolate milk and a banana'.

... Talking is easy scientifically unsupported, on the other hand statements blatant marketing can be expensive, they are $ 80 for a jar of Anaconda. The name is appropriate, because the product sounds like a good way to choke your wallet.
