#1 Why did you chose your Railbird.com screen name/ what does it mean?
Well CAN are my initials and i wanted to include that in my name..so when i created my account and added my picture UCanSeeMeNow seemed appropriate.

tight/agressive

A few wins in private tourneys and bulding a bankroll on 4 different sites without ever depositing
#4 what brought you to join railbirds in the first place, and what keeps u here ?
Was curious about railbirds avatars at
pokerstars so i came to see what it was all about..what keeps me here? All the wonderful friends i have made and the great competition especially in the private tournaments.
#5 Which pro would you like to face in a HU match and why?
I would have to say Negrenau, would like to give him a taste of his own medicine when he starts bullying when bigstacked.
#6 how have you improved your game...was it by lots of practice, was it by books you have read and if so, which books, was it by playing live ??
Lots of practice and some great advice by other railbirds. I haven't read any actual books but have read many of the strategy blogs posted at railbirds and they have helped me tremendously.
#7 Who are 5 players you look up to on railbirds and why? or Who do you think based on what you've seen or read, would you like to face heads up on railbirds?
There are so many great players at railbirds, hard to choose just 5 but i would like to go headsup with MarnieT (she's my nemesis) i can never win when shes at my table
#8 How do you play differently in tournaments vs. cash games?
I rarely play cash games, ring tables, but when i do i think i am a bit more agrressive than in freerolls.
#9 What would you consider a weakness in your game/ something you need to improve?
easy one here, bluffing! I rarely do , not to say i NEVER bluff , i will throw a few out every now and then to mix my game up a bit.
#10 What are some typical "TELLS" that a online poker player gives ?
overbetting on the flop and then backing off on the turn
#11 How Has Railbirds.com helped your game play?
RB's has given me alot of oppourtunity to play against some good players and learn from them and learn from my own mistakes.
#12 Best Moment in a trny ?
Heads Up with Otis19 aka Spliff19 in a freeroll for another forum. We were very good friends before he passed away and we played alot of tournaments together. We always would say "meet ya at the final table" and when we got heads up and i won he said "you showed me who the "big dog " was R.I.P.Ken =====>>>> /
#13 Most recent trny win?: (non railbird trny)
1st place in PC freeroll for top 100 January ranking
#14 Who intrduced you to poker ?
well , as a child i was allowed to play in penny ante games with the adults at my Gramps birthday parties but as far as online playing and texas holdem and omaha, my Ex started playing and i thought it was silly that he would play for hours, until i decided to try it myself. Now i am playing 8-10 hours a day LOL
#15 How does your strategy help in Freerolls provided by Railbirds.com?
As a general rule i play very tight the first hour or so and let the donks knock each other out..then i start getting more aggressive.
#16 If their wasn't Poker, what would you be doing?
NO POKER?? omg probably go back to some of the other gaming sites i used to play on alot and do more reading, used to read 7-8 books a month. Now it takes me 3 months to read 1..between tournaments LOL
