My name's Si, I live in Manchester, England. I play on Poker Stars under the name of Verlibs.

I played for 18 months or so about 6 years ago at 888.com if that still exists? I played solely stt's and had a bit of success, it paid for a few a beers while I was a student anyway.

So, for some reason I just stopped playing, got busy with starting work, shagging birds and taking drugs I think!  But roughly 8 months ago I started playing in regular live tournaments at my local casino and did well so decided to start playing on line again. It was a different ball game altogether, the standard has gone through the roof and it took me a few months to come to terms with it.

I've got the ears of some decent players though, one in particular who is a respected reg on Stars and between that, 2+2 and the free stuff on here I feel my game is really starting to come along and I'm making money. Having said that I'm still on a pretty steep learning curve having only started playing mtt's 4 months ago so if I make a twat out of myself once in a while please forgive me.

I appreciate all advice/criticism so the more the better.

And finally, I was playing with DannyN13 the other day, we were both cruising along in the $22 15k guaranteed, he came second, I ****ed up and came 68th, no surprise there… Anyway, I said I'd say hello when I sign up so hello and sorry for ****ing up using your referral code, hope that doesn't hit you in the pocket!
