A stranger is being shown around a village that he has just become part of. He is shown a well and his guide says "On any day except tuesday, you can shout any question down that well and you'll be told the answer" . The man seems pretty impressed, and so he shouts down: Why not on tuesday? and the voice from in the well shouts back: Because on tuesday, its your day in the well .

thanks.

Re: The Well: ikestoys
 

if my memory serves me right you had a great run a month or two ago at higher stakes and stayed there.

Could you share your thoughts on shot taking?

poker story -

i started out playing play money poker on party. I loved playing omaha hi/lo... lol it was fun b/c i never had to fold. I eventually deposited 50 bucks on party, ran it up to 120 playing 10+1 SNGs and lost it.

Feb 2006 I deposited 50 onto a no name site that probably doesn't even exist anymore called pokerchamps and pwned the 2.5+.25 SNGs. I eventually moved up to 5+.5 SNGs. I then won an MTT for about 600 and boom, I had a bank roll.

I switched sites to paradise where I played 10+1 SNGs. I did well and moved up to 20+2. I ran really hot. By May that year, I had made about 2k and thought I was a huge badass. My buddy Killerbees24 got me into cash games. I played .25/.5 for about a month and moved up to .5/1. I played .5/1 foreeevvverr. I started moving up this January and have flown up to 5/10 and 10/25.

Try to describe in one sentence exactly how this happens. Seems rediculously incredible to me.

Edit: Maybe 'surreal' says it best.

Re: The Well: ikestoys
 

wow, good work, how many hands is that?

Re: The Well: ikestoys
 

Looking at your graph I wondered: After being stuck at 100 for so long, did that first $10,000 downswing $*@# you up in the head, or did you handle it pretty well?
