how did you choose your screen name.
mine is a combination of my initials (S.I.C.) and the way i feel after another board four-flushes to bail out a 4:1 underdog.

My middle name has a silent z in it. Hence Silentz
When I signed up for Party it was taken, bizarrely. So i chose DogOnMySide... because... er... it was meant to be a sort of play on the phrase "God On My Side" and i thought it might wind up annoying christian yank types
Instead, when i win hands people just say "i need a dog too"
Its a shit name but i couldnt think of anything else

That's how I got my nick too... E-wrestling. I grew out of that hobby quickly, but the nickname worked well for online poker too.

I used to go to a lot of raves in the baltimore/dc area, new york, germany, amsterdam, etc. And each of my friends had a little rave name, pixie, dino dave, little jen, minibuns etc.
So finally at one of dino dave's after parties he caught me using his personal towel to wipe my hands after washing them in his bathroom and he was like you are a little shiesty one aren't you, and it stuck. I changed it to shysti.
No one knew why he gave me the name but they always thought it meant with the ladies at these raves because at the after parties they were around me lol. So I kept the name even though I don't live in that area and still miss the rave scene there!

me and some of my friends all decided to make up funny poker nicknames one day at one of our friendly homegames, and I had just won $275 in a party poker $5 turbo, which seemed like big money to us back then. So I got 'The Bankroll' so I just started using it online.

So if they are clever enough to get it then they will know you are clever enough to make it and it won't scream sucker.
If they are not clever they won't get it and it won't scream sucker. hehe

Got mine from local homegame where lowest denomination chips are white in colour.
Stole blinds so often bulit up big stacks of whites hence the name.

The strong point in poker is never to lose your temper, either with those you are playing with or, more particularly, with the cards. There is no sympathy in poker. Always keep cool. If you lose your head you will lose all your chips.

My poker name is of no particular interest. However, my FTR name was based on the delusion that poker involved no luck. Thus the ‘!’, which in C++ means NOT and the appendage luck. However, after years of playing poorly and winning, my name is the most ironic thing I have created.

I am into a type of motorsport called drifting, Im sure some people have heard of it... its a judged sport, and the idea is to kinda power slide or fish tail or something like that around turns and look cool doing it. A lot of the cars are turbo'd to get enough power to the wheels so they can spin free and get the car side ways. Slang for turbo is "boost" and the idea is to "slide" your car sideways aroudn the track.
When I made accts on PP skins though I had some fun and made "loadedNready" and "steakNshrimp" the first is self explanitory. As for sNs, the idea behind it is that after taking all these suckers money, Ill be eating nothing but steak and shrimp, breakfast lunch and dinner
