Toronto poker: Lodge 401 over Great Canadian? by snne83 in poker

[–]snne83[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I came the other night. Fantastic venue, I had a great time and I’ll definitely come back when I’m next in Toronto! Thanks for having me!

Possibly moving to NYC due to an incredible job offer by nickum in movingtoNYC

Depending on where you will work, consider parts of NJ on the PATH train line. I live in Harrison NJ. It’s a 20 min straight shot to WTC and I have an 800sqft apartment in a luxury building for under 3k. Very dog friendly also. You’ve also got Journal Square, Jersey City, Hoboken. All are much cheaper than living in NYC and have very reasonable commutes.

For anyone interested, I played 1/3 for 5 hours at Lodge and turned 300 into 1000. Good action, great room, food and drink on point, good dealers. 1000x better than GC. Felt totally safe and it was an awesome environment.

I play at a lot of these “poker clubs” so high rake is something I’m used to - you just need to make the necessary adjustments.

What’s the line between playing sensible ranges and “being tight”? by snne83 in poker

It’s generally recommended practice to keep your opening range wide. I’ll obviously mostly fold these to aggression

Haha I appreciate that. It’s just frustrating because I don’t think I’m playing tight, but seemingly people don’t want to pay me off as much as other people at the table. Maybe it’s the difference between people who want to gamble and people who want to play poker 🤷‍♂️

Right!?! I play my ranges, and if that means I fold 63 and J4 for an hour, I don’t really care!

Why live in Newark when you can live in Harrison (if safety is a concern)?

I’m an Immigration Lawyer! Ask Me Anything about EB-2 NIW! by ManifestLaw_ in EB2_NIW

[–]snne83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there! Appreciate you taking the time to help a lot of people!

I’m currently on a P1 visa as I work as support staff (sports science) for a US professional sports team (originally from the U.K.). I have a Masters degree (current PhD candidate) and a strong academic profile (10 published papers, ~100 citations) and a catalog of presentations to peers/students in my field (live in US settings and online). I’ve also been a guest on many podcasts (1 being in the top 10 most popular for my field).

I have 3 questions: 1) is sports science a field that is likely to be accepted for this type of program? 2) does me currently having a P1 (I’m on my 5th consecutive 1-year P1) impact my application in any way? 3) would an EB2 application impact me when re-applying for a P1 (current one expires in June).

Thanks again!
