Message: [QUOTE="Eddie Leeway, post: 1881930, member: 83537"] Glad you enjoyed that story, Calicard...when I read yours(funny as all hell) I figured it had to have a decent tale to come even close to yours so that's what I tried to write and add to the thread I thought I did a good job at editing, but there are two spots that I missed proofreading...oh well Other than that, my most memorable plays came roughly 6 years ago when Party Poker and FullTilt were available(and legal) to players in New York State On PartyPoker I placed 52nd in a $100K GTD tourney I got into via winning two 10-seated games($10 invested in each game and had to win BOTH) for over $2500...after that weekend I cashed out for $3500 after using my winnings to place in 4 different SnG's as well...I sure hope I can make that happen again someday soon...who wouldn't? The other was on FullTilt in a $5-$10 Limit Holdem game with Jennifer Harman...I was able to win roughly $200 that night which surprised the heck outta me as well I don't know if anyone else has played w/pro's on FullTilt. It's a big hero-worship kinda thing where everyone is waiting to sit in and gab with a poker celebrity while trying to impress them as well....the pro replies to about one out of every twenty-plus comments and for many I guess it gets pretty expensive at the table as well. I can't remember if railbirds could chat also, but the chat was constant These wins were few and far between for me, and I don't know how I was able to pull it off back then. It's been roughly 6 years. Maybe the online game was greener and there were more fish in the water? Who knows... I guess, for me it was simply being in the right place at the right time. I had a great time with the experience, and both times I was way out of my league What I do know is nowadays I can't really put much action into any account I have at this time so it's strictly small taters for me, but that's okay too...I'm having fun with the free time I have and that's what it's all about for me. I know I'll be playing for bigger stakes at some point...so don't take all this like I'm some Grandpa...I ain't got no kids. I'm on a challenge to see if I can actually make "something outta nothing" during a 9-month period...then I'll choose what site(or sites) I'll deposit into I'm actually learning more about poker than I ever did before...how did I get so lucky? I can't answer that. I was in the right place, right time, and I was able to make it happen. This is a game of skill, and you need a little luck some of the time as well...especially when it comes to online poker [/QUOTE]
