DC member you wish you could meet: Ansky - he's my hero! Reason - after watching 2 of his early video's on a Sunday afternoon, that same evening I took down the most prestigious tourney on the site I like to play on that had been my nemesis for months! I'm here on a mission to improve my low level multitabling cash game within 7 days before I start a challenge to hopefully go some way to change my life. It's a massive challenge for me as I don't really play cash, and I haven't multitabled! So I thought I'd call in and say hi to you all before I begin - it looks kinda cool and yeah, 7 days won't be enough and I guess I'll be here a while!

We wear watermelons on our heads, are generally the best fans in the country, and can create watermelon shortages in a city of a million for the Grey Cup Final (our Super Bowl) I'm a season ticket holder of course.
Random Fact: I coined the term "futurenuts" Which can mean a few things, but basically it's a non ranking/made hand with higher percentage to win than the current made hand. EX: a PLO hand where you have 2 flush draws and a straight draw vs a two-pair type thing.

hey all,

i just joined tonight by recommendation of aaron kaiser, i been playing poker for about 10 months now have read about five books including the super system, phil's and daniell's... etc.. playe on both fulltilt and pokerstars although i started out really well taking fulltilts bankroll challange of taking 50 to 500 and completeing it, i then got ahead of my self jumped right up to low/midstakes nl and went on what everybody likes to call tilt. I will admit i am a losing poker player but i feel (apparently just like every one else ) that i have the potential to be good, i am currently a senior at cp (hence the connection to aaron, sorry for the explicit name drop... x2)and would like to eventually make some money off of poker. i definitely plan to join the premium membership but like i said i am a college student so it will have to wait till the winter at least. i am fully open to suggestions from all players, i really like to have fun with poker and not get frustrated when something goes horribly wrong. any way summary time

American Football, I've been a Bucs fan my whole life, but never die hard, more a fan of the game. I've been a musician my whole life, my main instrument has always been guitar. I currently live in Northern Virginia, but will be moving to SC in the next 6 months. I just recently got into online poker on full tilt. I'm just now learning theory, and am still a slight loser looking to improve (obviously).
