Hi Everyone,

Yet another new addition to the TPE Family. I'm Allan, from Brighton in the UK. I started playing poker in 2002, mainly home games and some PL and NLH Tourneys at my local casino. Started playing online on Stars in 2003 and am still playing there now. I guess I'd consider myself an ok player, I made a couple of deep runs in MicroMillions last year but across the year I didn't do as well as I would have hoped. A friend recommended you guys, I started listening to the Podcasts which has given me a new perspective on the game.

My game has changed massively in the past 6 months, when i started off playing I was definately a 'super tight is right' kind of player, just playing the premium hands hard and fast and not getting too involved otherwise, but with the game evolving I'm hoping the changes i've made, plus the help and advice on this site will turn me into more of a winning player, turning the min cashes into deeper runs and the deep runs into final tables! I'm also hoping to play some bigger live tourneys in the UK this year, my local GUKPT event and some UKIPT events. Who knows, if I can run up a roll in time maybe I'll head out for the WSOP Millionaire Maker (although that would be terrible BR Management!!)!

That's it, I'll save the rest for my life story 🙂

Allan (Pikey2003 – Pokerstars)
