Message: [QUOTE="belizebum, post: 6787738, member: 349221"] The Moneymaker effect was quite personal to me. Never really heard of Texas holdem. I mean I knew about poker, but the usual games, Stud etc. He was all over the news with that win, and when I found out he was just some Accountant, like me, well the bells went off. I know I will never get to where he is, thats for sure, but it brought Texas holdem to me. Think I started on Stars first and gradually ended up on every major site. I was watching it on TV every chance I got. It was really a few years later that I actually realized there were courses and online training. As much as I lose or bust out, I love this freaking game and hope to continue getting better at it every day. [/QUOTE]
