Hi all Railbirds

I finally got around to write some thing about myself. My wife and kids mean the world to me, they are #1 in my life. I’m glad that my wife supports me and does not try to stop me from playing poker and the kids think its neat that I play games on the computer. How did I get hooked on Texas Holdem. It was in the back of my mind for awhile when my favorite card game was Black Jack. I watch WSOP one night and found it exciting, so I decided to try it. I started to play (learned) Texas Holdem about a 2 years ago. I did not know how to play or even know what hand beats what. I started by playing the play money and thought I was ready after 3 month winning a lots of play money. I was excited so I decided to play for real, wow woke me up. At first I was doing OK, then I tried moving up to the next level, their I was knock down quickly and found myself back down. Where am I right now at the bottom of the learning curve, so the only thing left is to climb back out I 've learned my lesson. I’m still learning but I’ve notice that I have improved a lot by knowing how far I placed in tournaments, Its been a long journey which is not finish yet. I’m always looking for new friends to join me on my journey to learn from them and to be their for them if I can help.
