Title: Poker
Post by: Fireal1222 on Aug 20, 2008, 05:35 AM
i got into poker about 2 years ago when a few of my friends began playing heavily. actually i really pushed myself to play more often when my friend won over $60 thousand in a tournament about 2 months ago.

anyway. after just watching it on tv for the past years. and playing once and a while online (pokerstars). i decided to have my cousin jimmy to let me know whenever they are playing cards at his house.  its great because my cousin is my manager at work, so i already know all the people who play since we all work together.


anyway i've played 2 times so far. and so far i've already won twice. tonight i just won 150$


i figured this would be a nice place to stroke the ego. while also making a poker thread



who else plays?

( im talking texas hold em of course )

I love to play Texas Hold Em'.     I play on the PC online sometimes, and play on Xbox 360.   Only played a few times LIVE.

Hey.. it's defintely a game and not a sport but it is awesome. I've been playing seriously for 4 years.. yes I'm part of the Moneymake Effect.. It's the one game where no matter how skilled you are you are still not a guarantee to win. I play home games, Full Tilt and at all the Phoenix area casinos..

Don't you get it? It's like totally uncool to like things that many people love. Like, fight the power, man.

The PBA is actually pretty big.  Believe it or not, I used to be a pretty good league bowler.  When I was in the 8th grade I had a 180 average and a high game of 254.  Peoples said this guy might be on the tour some day.  Then fucking military school ruined it for me :(

It's not even that. I love poker and bowling, I just don't think they should be on sports channels, so boring.

Dude, I was in a league too!    I only did it until 8th grade.  Cuz then in High School I thought it was teh lamez.     My high game was 247.   I have my very own ball and everything.   But my fingerholes would need to be redrilled.   =o(       I've actually thought about joining a Friday night league....yannow.. something to do.   Plus it's fun.    I just meant that  you see poker on TV.. you see Nascar... you see baseball... football... on and on and on.   BUT rarely do I turn on the TV and see Bowling...
