Hi ATE,
I am just posting to let you know something that i feel is very important.
I have registered on this site just to post to you and let you know how much i love your articles, i have read all of thema nd knew of you on the other poker forum. However, here you really really shine. I have read all your stories on things that i would probably never think that would interest me like your dealer info. I loved the part about saying thanks and not rapping the chip tray.
Seeing as i know so much about you, i am going to tell you a little bit about me, I play poker everyday online and live and i focus more on tournament MTT and SNG play. I reside in England and the poker scene is really up and coming, but all live tourneys i go are PL !!! What you think about that?
I am not rich, and i haven't really had the oppurtunity to make a bank roll, until one time not so long. In just SNG alone from a 100 dollar deposit on a site i made it up 817 in less than a week at 30 dollar buy ins. I unfortunately went stupid and went on cash games, and lost it all in less than a day. This still upsets me now but i really know what i can and can't do more.
So as you want more questions here is one for you. I think i am going to start up on Poker Stars when i next get money to buy in because of the Micro Limit games.
I realise its much different to what i am used to but its just in interest of building up the cash level part of my game, and jsut grinding it out so i can move up the levels, Then when i get a managable i will move up the levels..
Ok but heres the question, could i realistically learn anything from the microlimits, even if it just is bankroll managment for cash games, as i realise that making big plays, bluffs etc.. will not work at this level.
Also note i would love to here when the book is coming!
Lots of respect and admiration your way brother!
Matt
