mainly from watching WSOP on tv, got me addicted

it would have to be either daniel negreanu or scotty nguyen, because they joke and have fun at the tables.

online... ness or dark.

to continue trying to play my game, finding ways that i may be able to improve my winning... always try and make it to the final table and railing all monster clan members whenever i can.



#10 What would you consider a weakness in your game/ something you need to improve?

i can get frustrated when after an hour or two of not getting some good cards... i will play stupid hands and get busted...



#12 What are some typical "TELLS" that a online player is bluffing ?

online tells when they bet minimum after flop, or go all in on a flush/straight draw... also when a sitter wakes up and goes all in pre flop, 9/10 they will be holding an Ace, not a bluff but something i've noticed.



#13 How Has Railbirds.com helped your game play?

railbirds have helped me through peoples blogs/strategies, by setting up tournaments, making friends and having clan members who will cheer you on.



#14 Best Moment in a trny ?

best moment was holding pocket 8's and flopped quads, i was able to double through which resulted in me getting to final table to finish 5th...



#15 Most recent trny win?

best recent win this week was in the RB limit stud hi/lo freeroll, made it ITM, as i'm not very good at stud.
