There has been an influx of new posters over the last few weeks asking the same questions that have been answered time-and-time again. I was sure that I wasn't those, so I searched.

My first post was "What's Normal ITM Distribution?" (http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showthreaded.php?Cat=&Board=singletable&Number=126 5592&Forum=,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,All_ Forums,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,&Words=&S earchpage=32&Limit=25&Main=1265592&Search=true&whe re=&Name=10938&daterange=&newerval=&newertype=&old erval=&oldertype=&bodyprev=#Post1265592)

Guilty as charged. If you've been around for awhile, what was your first post about? This should be funny.

Mine wasn't funny. Someone ('georgous?') was working on some software and I asked what language it was in.

I lurked for at least a month so I had read about ITM and ROI about a thousand times before I posted.

Where does all this money come from? (http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showthreaded.php?Cat=&Number=1541085&page=&view=&s b=5&o=&vc=1)

That old screen name of mine was too long anyway. ...not a bad post I guess, but that was before I figured out I could post hands and learn how badly I botched them.

Do you mean "post" or "reply/post?" Because I made a reply first and then I made a post. My first post was as follows:

Just calling with (or folding) KK or QQ preflop in sngs. (http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=singletable&Number=1449198 &Forum=f22&Words=&Searchpage=0&Limit=200&Main=1449 198&Search=true&where=bodysub&Name=24203&daterange =1&newerval=&newertype=&olderval=2&oldertype=m&bod yprev=#Post1449198)

Not much to say about it. My first reply was to a post about why this guy couldn't beat bad players. It's pretty funny. All I really have to say about my first ones are that I would like to think that I am a completely different SNG player and poker player in general because I found these forums.

Thanks.

I made a reply to a worst play in a sng thread. In fact, I have never started a thread in STT. first reply (http://archiveserver.twoplustwo.com/showthreaded.php?Number=555617)

granted i've only ben here for 5.5 months, mine was actually a hand posting (http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showthreaded.php?Cat=&Number=1527360&page=&view=&s b=5&o=) . this is a great thread at 4:33 in the morning on a day in which i was a 20x buyin loser. it really is quite remarkable how much i have learned from this forum and more specifically a few frequent posters in it.

Yeah, you do. That is awesome. I can't believe you weren't killed.

My first post was a handily-crafted hilarious observation on the fact that we "gamble to get it over with" (Mike Caro). Since it wasn't the two-thousanth re-hash of a "what do you do with 9-T suited UTG?" or some brainiac, but useless, review of the statistical aberrations that can occur when you play 250 $11 SnG's in one day, it was, of course, roundly ignored /images/graemlins/confused.gif

P.S.: Some pimple-faced Geek, who had been playing poker for 3 days, did correct a spelling error & Irieguy won the unders on how many replies I would get /images/graemlins/mad.gif

Ha, this is sweet. My first post was in the General Gambling section.

US Dollar? Maroon dude vs Warren Buffett (http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showthreaded.php?Cat=&Board=stocks&Number=1295716& Forum=,,,,All_Forums,,,,&Words=&Searchpage=4&Limit =25&Main=1233415&Search=true&where=bodysub&Name=22 022&daterange=1&newerval=&newertype=w&olderval=10& oldertype=w&bodyprev=#Post1295716)

I'm such a nerd.

I'm a noob. My first STT post was a variance question, and I stuck it to the "Beating the party, $10+1" thread, so I could find the thread again ('cos I didn't know about that favorite thread thing yet).

Beating the Party, $10+1 (http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showthreaded.php?Cat=&Board=singletable&Number=131 5347&Forum=,,,,,All_Forums,,,,,&Words=&Searchpage= 4&Limit=25&Main=602767&Search=true&where=bodysub&N ame=22022&daterange=1&newerval=&newertype=w&olderv al=10&oldertype=w&bodyprev=#Post1315347)

How embarassing. I've engraved my stupidity for all time. This is probably the most read thread from this forum. Luckily enough, I was able to post a second time on said thread, to really prove my noobness.

Not true, skipperbob. Your first two posts were both one-sentence replies calling me an idiot.

Irieguy is an idiot (http://archiveserver.twoplustwo.com/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=singletable&Number=945284& Forum=,,,,,f22,,,,,&Words=Irieguy&Searchpage=4&Lim it=25&Main=944926&Search=true&where=bodysub&Name=& daterange=0&newerval=&newertype=&olderval=&olderty pe=&bodyprev=#Post945284)

I think your 3rd post was you calling me a faggot.

I was on 2+2 for years under a different name, before they had the single table forum. But my first post as Irieguy was a reply to AleoMagus' post about him beating the crap out of his furniture after a bad run.
I titled it "thank you aleo."
Thank You Aleo (http://archiveserver.twoplustwo.com/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=singletable&Number=944681& Forum=,,,,,f22,,,,,&Words=Irieguy&Searchpage=4&Lim it=25&Main=944369&Search=true&where=bodysub&Name=& daterange=0&newerval=&newertype=&olderval=&olderty pe=&bodyprev=#Post944681)

There may have been a post about playing AK against a tight UTG player who min-raises before the Aleo post... but I can't find it. So, I think this was my first post.

My first post for the "one table" section was .

A bitch post...go figure. (http://archiveserver.twoplustwo.com/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=singletable&Number=552421& Forum=f22&Words=&Searchpage=0&Limit=25&Main=552421 &Search=true&where=bodysub&Name=8121&daterange=1&n ewerval=&newertype=&olderval=1&oldertype=y&bodypre v=#Post552421)

My second post however was a reply and in the reply I am GUILTY as charged for asking one of the Forbidon Questions.

Hehehehe this is my first post and I did not get any replies. I can see why! It is very embarrassing. Now that I am a better player I don’t care as much, but I still have the question. "Why do I see so many players on PokerStars with the same Avatar?" For example the ‘lily pad’ avatar and the 'cold winter scene' avatar are two that I always see in the low limit SNG’s. At first I thought they were some kind of gang, now I notice that these people whom I used to fear are not that good.

Similar PokerStars Avatars??? (http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=singletable&Number=1154389 &Forum=All_Forums&Words=&Searchpage=0&Limit=30&Mai n=1154389&Search=true&where=bodysub&Name=18877&dat erange=1&newerval=1&newertype=y&olderval=&oldertyp e=&bodyprev=#Post1154389)

P.S. Its funny I didn't even know they were called avatars, I called them icons.

Mine was stupid as well: I have a question! No I don't. Oh, wait, yes, I do!
