Oh man, I used to have the sweetest black deck: 4 Royal assassins , 4 nightmares(my fav), Demonic Horde, Will-o-the wisp, Sengir Vampire, yeah what an awesome card game....

Keep posting hands, commenting on others and good luck at the tables.

Thanks Bean, what an awesome feeling it is when all these aspects of learning start to pay off.

As for what I hope for: Yeah, i do plan on stepping up through the micro's, I'm excited to see what challenges lay ahead in these dirty little micro world. Obv from there i hope to keep it moving up and up. I will post a sort of timeline goal in this thread here soon.

Yepper, And I can say this for sure. I do believe their is a dreaded disease in the poker world: Auto-Pilot!!!!

I'm making a real effort to get reads, put villains on a range , and stay away from the auto-pilot button..

Good luck dude! and have fun!

LOL, no I'm 32 . I guess i just have these little gems of memories. Where i was playing my original NES. Stuck like chuck at one of the latter stages of the original metroid, and BAM. I get bit by the determination bug.

The reason i made the age analogy is because poker, unlike any game i have ever played has challenged me beyond what I think my limits are sometimes. What a sweet feeling that is when we begin to conquer these cahllenges....



Thanks everyone
