My friends call me Gerva (although it has nothing to do with my name. Another time I can explain...lol) and I live in Curitiba - Paraná - Brazil, whose universal city code is CWB. That's why I chose GervaCWB. 🖖

I have one different nickname in each poker room because I made an account in different period of my life. I like them all except Poker Stars, I really would like to change, but unfortunately they don't let us change the nickname. Here my nickname is Cooking, because my favorite hobby is cook and anything related with food.

For me, finding a nick name is always like a little nightmare. No matter what I want it's never available. Now I've made Mina271 and it somehow sticks to me now, but it certainly wasn't my first choice, but people get used to everything and I've now also got used to this nick name.

hahaha it's a silly story, since I don't like my nickname but at the time I didn't know what to put and well it's like this and I think I'll always use this nickname, it makes me laugh but it's for something I guess

I was looking for a name and while I was thinking Limp Bizkit played on the Radio. They had that album "the chocolate starfish and the hot dog flavored water". So I thought that sounded ok and I took the name.

Honestly, I didn't even think about it when I came up with a pseudonym for playing poker. Somehow I got used to it, but I would not trade for another.

Mine's is a typo. Scotalad. It was supposed to be Scotslad. I'm Scottish & we call generally call boys/men > lads. Scotslad. But instead of inputting an "S" when i signed up, i put "A" typo, it is next to S on the keyboard in my defence. I have asked PokerStars if i can change it, but i got back some message that i cannot & it's a technical reason.

During registration at Pokerstars, the system offered me some numbers, I just agreed with that and that's it !!! I absolutely do not care what my nickname is, I am more worried about the level of my game, and the nickname does not affect this in any way !!!

In some sites it's just my real name . On Bwin and sports betting.gr I used some funny names from internet just for fun . On PokerStars I chose my existing username by mistake , when I realised my mistake it was too late , I am pretty sure you cannot change your username on PS , which sucks . It would be good for many reasons to be able to change your username , at least once per year .

It's a piece of the Phrase that Kio Kusanagi says when he does his best attack 😅 I didn't copy it right but I liked it that way.

My nickname is simple, my name is because of my town where I was born (Dennehy), the added number (1974) is for the football championship year obtained by our local club in the league of our district, belonging to the city of 9 de Julio. My father played in that team and it was the last Championship won,
The club has not existed for a few decades, work is being done to refloat it.
That's why my nickname is Dennehy_1974
