Its cool, I've tried to keep some anonymity outside of MTTC.

I started out grinding limit at like 2/4, then met stevepa and pacmann who taught me stuff, and told me I should be less of a nit(ie. not playing with a 3kBB roll), and started improving, then moved to tournaments, ran sick hot(made like 150ish between Mar 06 and July 06 without being very good at the time), from running good in donkaments, I got entry into a winner take all 1m prize pool SNG, which I chopped 3 handed for 330, from there, I started staking lots of v. good players, who have done pretty well since, and I've also been playing lots of cash on other networks as well as shortstacking the big games on FTP(I'm super -EV fullstacking, but when Watts and I got into it, no one could adapt well to short stackers and they all just spite called us etc.)

Heres the shortstacking thread

My parents have above average jobs(probably about average for people with university degrees), and are good at saving money, but are certainly far from rich, and because they save everything, they seem poorer than most people with equivalent salaries and worse spending habbits. I've never used my parents money to gamble, and the initial $100 I put online through their credit card, I payed them cash before I made a desposit.

Wait, you were shorting 200/400 NL and made 250k when you were 17 [censored] years old? I think it was 250k if I am remembering correctly from the graph you posted. Wow, how long have you been playing online? Thats a sick amount of money to make at that age, congrats

[/ QUOTE ]

lol at thinking 250k is like the high point of Timex's profits.

Oh, and [censored] Timex. Happy birthday.
