One year ago today, I ...

1. Joined 2+2 (almost literally)

2. Played SNGs at Absolute Poker

3. Hid that I played poker for real money from my wife.

4. Single tabled on a 17" LCD

5. Played $22s with a $100 BR.

6. Was a losing poker player

7. Had a son who was 1 year old

8. Was only a few days away from meeting someone (Negative EV) who changed my poker life while playing on a table on Party Poker.

Since then, I have...

1. Posted far too much on 2+2

2. Played SNGs at Party Poker, Empire, Eurobet, Pokerstars, Bodog, Battlefield, Absolute, Pokershare, and Colosseum.

3. My wife supports my poker hobby

4. Have bought 2 Dell 2001fp’s. Don’t know if I could ever use a computer again without 2 monitors for things even non-poker related.

5. Play the $22s, $33s, & $55s pretty consistently. 8 tabling. Don’t feel that I’ve developed as fast as I should have.

6. Have won more $$ in 2005 than I have at any job I have ever had.

7. Have two sons, a 2 year old, and a 5 month old.

8. Have taught one 2+2er. The experience has taught me that I have far too much to learn to ever do again. It has also enlightened me as to how much I have learned over the past year. That being said, the best experience that has come from teaching is the friendship that developed.

Poker has become an important part of my life. Not only have I learned a lot about the game itself, but it has taught me things about life as well.
