Title: Obligatory hello everybody post! Post by: thetank on November 04, 2005, 01:44:14 PM Rod Paradise told me last night I should put a brief wee introduction post up here.
Sounded like a fair plan so here goes.. I'm Thomas, I'm 23. Been playing poker for 3 years, 6 months professionaly. Trying to break into the live game at the mo. Have done 2 festivals so far, cashed in a couple at the Gutshot (not too fancy 7th and 8th) but washed out in Brighton. I'll do Glasgow next week, would be rude not to as I live there. Probably Blackpool the week after if I feel like it. Highlight of poker career so far was probably on Wednesday night winning a 6 man £500 freezeout at Cincci's. Hadn't previously had any live experience of playing heads-up for serious money and was happy with the way I handled myself. Lowlight, after cashing in the gutshot having my name listed on poker websites as, Thomas Stott(England). Carefully worded e-mails were sent and I think they're now mostly the more accurate Thomas Stott(Scotland). Hoping to get in the top 500 soon, after that will probably set my sights higher. At the moment I'm concentrating on improving my PL omaha cash game. It's getting on ok, won 700 at it last night after dropping 1000 in a disastrous NLHE game that got me re-thinking my "I don't fold KK pre-flop" policy. It was quite embarrasing as it was only a £20 buy-in game so I didn't bother taking more than a grand with me. Yet I had to make a walk of shame back to my flat to re-load.

Post by: thetank on November 04, 2005, 02:12:06 PM The professional thing doesn't mean quality. It just means I don't have a job.
I certainly won't be getting one as a dealer any time soon. Congrats on the 2nd last night. Bah! Call yourself a professional? You bummed that guys cards, not once, but twice last night!!!

Post by: mikkyT on November 04, 2005, 02:18:17 PM Hehe I'm only joking - you've done really well for someone who seems to be so new to live play. I found it tough switching from online to live.
