THANKS AND GOOD LUCK!
Lottie is just a wee bit humble...she is not awesome...she is TOTALLY awesome. An excellent player and a super person. She pulls out all the stops trying to help others, whether it is an individual or an entire league. If she is able to help...she is there, pronto!
One small example...another league we belong to...used to have tournys which were open to everyone, in order to recruit more members...the poker site had a MINIMUM number of registrants required, and many games were cancelled due to lack of people. Well, Lottie and I hit the various poker sites and went to the ring game tables and recruited bodies to fill the tourny! LOL Sometimes, she and I were so busy recruiting, we actually forgot to register ourselves! hahahaha!
Thumbs up Lottie...you're good people in my book.
dinq and lottie are awesomer than they say!
well thanks lottie i learned a lot about you from this.
all i can add is... do underestimate her... she needs more chips.
did u already try out the use of "notes"-field on the pokerrooms? i can tell ya that it helped me in my last tourney! u can look down at ur notes and may think about calling a huge raise with a pretty good hand! the notes already saved me several times from doing bad calls that wouldve busted me! i really advice u to try out! but well as u trust ur gut u may wont look at ur notes either
u say u dont have bracelets yet? hmm next year itll be the time of lottie531 on winning the ranking of the year and then u receive the WSOP package for WSOP2009! this will end in the win of the WSOP and we railbirds can be proud having one of the greatest players ever in our hood!
we set a new category on railbirds.com only for u! where u tell us the whole story of ur way to WSOP win; u tell us how u bluffed some pros like daniel negreanu or phil ivey and u tell us the most valuable tips u can get in the whole world! u start a video blog and show us the action happening at all the tourneys in the world. u get invited to all tourneys, all the world sees u on TV and u get hundrets of fanpages made by millions of fans! ull be recognized on the streets and everybody wants to hang around with u and play a few hands with ya! u will get into the Hall of Fame of Poker and the tourneys u played in will be shown even 10 years later in the category POKERLEGENDS.
tell me lottie wouldnt it be great? wouldnt u like this kind of future? and if u keep on ur play u can do this!
lottie dont forget, ur awesome! not only as pokerplayer, ur awesome as a friend and as the person u are! dont shift urself into another person! we all love u the way u are right now, so stay that kind of person! UR GREAT!!!
Ch!p
NonDonkish is good advice, lotti!! Thanks again, Cpt.
