#1 Why did you chose your Railbird.com screen name/ what does it mean? It was a nickname from the friends that I made on Pokerstars.

#2 How would you define your style of play? I had to ask a friend...he says I play TOO TIGHT...hmmm wonder if he’s talking about poker…LOL! I think I play too conservative.

#3 Poker Achievements? Hubbles tourney...placed 24th out of 10,000...never play this if you plan to go to work the next day...lol!

#4 what brought you to join railbirds in the first place, and what keeps u here ? A friend asked me to join RB. What keeps me here…well it’s the Crazy Canuck Clan and all the friends that I’ve meet on RB’s. You ALL are the greatest! Hugs...

#5 Which pro/internet player would you like to face in a HU match and why? Daniel Negreanu as I think it would be fun and a blast!

#6 how have you improved your game from when you 1st stated playing...was it by lots of practice, was it by books you have read and if so, which books, was it by playing live ?? Lots…lots…lots…lots of practice...oh did I say lots and lots and lots of practice…lol! Also by watching other RB’s play when I’m railing them.

#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? This is a tough one to answer…I would love to meet any RB’s in HU…no favorites here

#8 How do you play differently in tournaments vs. cash games? I don’t think I play any differently. But if it is a freeroll tourney then I tend to take more chances and if I lose, well there is always tomorrow.

#9 What would you consider a weakness in your game/ something you need to improve? I have tons…where do I start…need to be more aggressive…learn to bluff (rarely bluff)…and lots more!

#10 What are some typical "TELLS" that a online poker player gives ? I can’t tell…I go by instinct…that’s another thing I need to work on!

#11 How Has Railbirds.com helped your game play? The encouragement & advice that I get from Rb’s.

#12 Best Moment in a trny ? When I win monies…any monies…doesn’t matter if it’s small or big…it’s the thrill of placing somewhere in the top!

#13 Most recent trny win?: (non railbird trny) Same Ole tourney where I placed 2nd on April 13/08

#14 Who introduced you to poker ? My dad. My siblings and I learn a lot of card games from him.

#15 If there wasn't Poker, what would you be doing? I would be busy doing scrapbooking or quilting, reading, and sleep (definitely SLEEP)…lol!
