Hi, My name is Dan aka herebigfishy

 

I am a 35 year old male and have been playing poker since 2003 (just another Rounders / Moneymaker made me want to play poker guy) and I have been taking poker serious since 2007. I am moving to Vegas on May 14th to take my shot at playing poker for a living (My fiance of 7 years took a job as a nurse at a local hospital). I am very lucky to have a fiance that is VERY supportive of my poker and belives in me 100% so she is going to pay our living cost as I take my shot (a woman like mine is hard for a poker player to find!) I joined TPE because I know that I need to always be on top of my game, I looked at several training sites and this one is by far the best that I found.

I am going to still spend most my time grinding out online tourneys but I cant wait to get to the WSOP and other tourneys like the Venitian Deep Stack events. I have over $20,000 in live tournament cashes with my best (not the most $$) cash being a 24th place finish in the 2007 WSOP S.H.O.E tournament (my only WSOP cash to date).

I am really into forums and I have spent alot of time at 2+2 so expect me to get real involved in the forum here at TPE. I look forward to learning from the guys here and especially bigdogpckt5s (I have HUGE respect for your game!)

 

Thanks, Dan

Hi,

I'm new here myself, but I wanted to say good luck with your move to Vegas and I hope you are very successful. You are lucky to have a lady that believes in you, but I think that is because you deserve to be believed in laugh

Good one mate… smash it!

I'm another newby and I must say I'm loving these posts from gritty X-geners who balance their poker grindage with work and family.  It makes me feel that playing +EV poker after work hours, whilst also enjoying quality time with my wife and kids is indeed a viable option! Great community feel TPE!
