Hello,
I thought I would start up a topic so people can ask any questions they may have about me. I'll start with some basic's
I'm male, 32 yrs old, played poker for approx. 12 years, Used to play mid stakes on pokerroom 5-10 up to 25-50 Lhe under the names squidmonkey and seadonkey (or something like that - could have been a "_" in there) I was pretty good, but tilted easy and spewed chips often - so I guess I wasn't that good - I was a losing player. But I managed to luckbox some good finishes in tournies to keep my roll up. It then got around 10k frozen in Net teller for awhile(probably safer frozen there) - and eventually I got it back. I didn't redeposit this money.
After this I starting playing on full tilt and pokerstars - mostly low stakes donkaments with the occasional sunday million etc mixed in - still not good - losing lifetime roi on both sites (opr adam76 on stars or adam_g on tilt for proof)

I moved to the US from Canada about 4.5 years ago (work related) and now live in Rhode Island. Had a house built in June and live there with my girlfriend, my two cats and a dog.

I still play poker on tilt (adam_g) and pokerstars (adamg762000) and still suck - however recently have been playing low stakes plo along with the low stakes hold em tournies.
I also try and head down to foxwoods when I have time and play 4-8 or 5-10 Lhe and smaller tournies and sng's - my results there seem better - or maybe it's just because there isn't a website keeping track..... who knows.

Well thats all I can think of for now - feel free to ask any questions you may have - poker or otherwise. I'm sure there will be lots!


EDIT: PLease only up to 3 questions per post

If everyone plays by the same math rules we all lose to the rake.
If your a 70pct favorite to beat someone in general, why take an allin with them at 66/34 ? your giving them the edge.

I don't think it's really breaking any rules per say - so not sure if it will, I'm sure it will be off the front page pretty soon tho.

No you don't "win"...starting your own well is hardly a winner move.


If everyone plays by the same math rules we all lose to the rake.
If your a 70pct favorite to beat someone in general, why take an allin with them at 66/34 ? your giving them the edge.
