Hello everyone
I have been lurking for about a month and this is ny first post. I am an ex horseplayer. I made about a 5 figure income playing the horses from the early 80's to mid 90's. At which time my income eroded with the decline in racing. I eventualy quit about 5 years ago. I discovered internet poker about six weeks ago and have been hooked ever since. I did play some poker in the 80's and did alright. I won a small buy in 4-5 table tournament in Vegas and was able to beat low limit 7 high low. I have never played holdem into recently. I started playing $10 sng omaha8 and did fairly well. My stats through 60 games were 14 wins 8 seconds and 8 thirds. The only problem was it got sort of boring. So I thought I would try hold em. I was hooked immediately. I already see a lot of similarities between horse racing, especially in the mental swings Being what I would catagorize as below par player after 50 games I was 10-10-4.(wow I a poker god). Then I played my last 50 which eneded with 4-6-7. (oh I am a poker moron). I defintely on the begining of a large learning curve. So mainly I will be lurking and reading. Thanks for all the informative posts. Joe |
