About you
|
I first started playing poker at a weekly home game. I remember the first time that I got a hand in the first game that I played, boy did i play tight, I waited and waited until I got AA. It was funny how nervous I was, if anyone was paying any attention they would have been able to see my hand shaking. Once that hand ended, there was no turning back, I loved the anticipation of watching the cards fall and the feeling of victory. After I loosened up a tad, the guys started calling me nutbreaker, it stuck.
I than started playing poker online, mostly forum games. I belong to a few forums and have made a ton of friends, last year one I got to meet a few of my online friends for a game in vegas, had a blast and can't wait to see them again this year.

I learnt when I was 14 with a friend. A lot of friends joined in our games, I read a lot into the game, studied the game a lot. As soon as I turned 18 I got a job as a poker dealer at 1 casino, and played constantly at my other local.
|
What are your poker goals?
|
To make a living off it ^^, Still struggle with online, but getting better.
I would like to have a bankroll big enough to comfortably multi table .50/1. So about 2k. But, I make too many frustrated calls that cost me money
|
What’s your biggest ever poker win?
|
April last year, I made the final table of a 150 man league over 6 months. Having made 2-3k profit over the 6 months, I cashed 1.4k on the final table. A few 30£ 70 man tourneys at my local gave me 450-550. But its not regular enough!
|
What do you hope to achieve by being a member of this community?
|
To get better, simple as that. Hopefully by playing whilst keeping up with a poker community will help me improve my game rather than constantly playing by myself.
|
What are your other hobbies?
|
Football and sports betting (mostly football) ;)
And computer gaming, I've mentioned this though already -_-
