Message: [QUOTE="fishfood80, post: 5928533, member: 133255"] I watched it on tv a lot when I was younger but never really thought about taking it seriously. Circumstances about 10 years ago changed that. I broke my neck and had to stop working at my job as a lumber grader. After a long time of physical therapy and busting my %#* I was still in a considerable amount of pain and couldn’t go back to work. When my savings started running out I took a chance and went to the local 1-2 game and did well. I played my first tournament at the poker room in Hampton New Hampshire and we did a 5 way chop for about 3200 a piece after that I was hooked. I haven’t gotten rich but I’ve been able to support my family for a few years now. My overall plan is when my home is paid off and my son is out of college and my bank roll has less stress on it to give it a real go and play some bigger buy ins. [/QUOTE]
