Hey everybody.  I've been lurking for the past few weeks, mainly watching videos and learning a lot.  I used to play poker quite a bit and just came back to the game recently.

I've always been a bit of a nit, but it works for me, particularly in getting deep into tourneys.   I could never close the deal on MTTs though, I'd always end up foldiing my way to 5th or 6th, if I was lucky.  Watching bigdogpckt5s vids really changed my perspective on low 10bb to 20bb play.  I love the three bet shove, especially when it doubles me up from 20bb to 40bb!  I was able to take down the FTP Daily Double B the other night using a lot of what I've learned here.  That wasn't a huge win, I know, but it's the biggest I've had.  I'm starting to feel that killer instinct the Big Dog wrote about recently when I get deep.

I've still got a lot to work on with my game, but I know I'm going to be able to get better with continued study and experience.  See you guys at the tables…
