This is me
February 3, 2006
Here is a little bit about me.
My nickname at most sites is svcmgr or a vaiant of svcmgr = Service Manager.
My name is Dave. I live in Wisconsin with my family. I have been married for a pretty long time. I have 2 kids. One boy - 17 years old and a daughter who is 22 years old.
I am a Service Manager for a CNC Machine Tool Distributor, hence the name.
I have been playing on line for a few years now. My game did not really significantly improve until I hooked up with my fellow members at this site. I can’t stress enough how having other good players evaluate your game and offer suggestions for improvement makes you a much better player.
I enjoy helping other players get better at their game. So, don’t be afraid to ask for help. All of the players here feel pretty much the same way.
Sometimes I work long hours or have to travel for my job so my playing time can be limited.
I play, pretty much, any of the games. I prefer No limit but I also enjoy Omaha H/L. I have played Stud, Razz, and HORSE but those I play just to do something different.
My goal is to become a very solid player with the hopes of someday, maybe playing in the WSOP.
I play live about once a week in a local Tourny which adds to my experience of live action.
I am pretty much a SNG or Multi Table Tourny player. I don’t mess around at the cash tables too much but I am going to try to do that more often this year.
I can be reached on Skype. My name is svcmgr.
Welcome to the Forum and good luck on the felt
Who am I
February 1, 2006
OK after been running this blog for almost a year nowI thought it’s time to reveal a little bit about who I am!
1) Swedish, female
2) Love racing, have my own 6-gear 100 cc gocart and have been racing cars. (speed-junkie he** yeah) 
3) Collector of something called micromachines. Have my own little town in my livingroom with houses, cars and a spaceport with spaceships added to it. (Aaaawww toys!!!)
4) The only one who have been allowed into, then escorted back and deported from a european country all in the timeframe of 30-45 minutes. (Hummm, forgot the greencard-insurance on the car back home nicely on the kitchentable and loudly refusing to buy a new one at the border, so forgetful yep that’s me)
5) started playing poker early, some 35 years ago now. Uhmmm knuckle-poker anyone? It’s either 5 card draw or 5 card stud but with high/low where the high gets to punish the low, a red card gets you a burn on the lower arm and black card hit you on your knuckles, all done with the deck. (Painful poker, you have to improve so you don’t have to go around bruised and burned)
6) Hate to sleep (would love if that habit could be gotten rid of)
7) Been hosed with cold water by the working ladies of the night in a european big city when checking where my company went. ( 
the bouncer dragged my male companions into a uhm uhm “bar” Of course i go check they are ok. Well what a compliment to me if they thought i was competition and nooo i wasn’t dressed for the occasion exactly)
After driving for some 12 hours, pulled over to get me some sleep just to be awaken a couple of hours later by some angry germans for totally blocking the service-entrance to the restaurant so they couldn’t open it in time. (I come from the land where the sun never sets during summer and in germany it’s pitch-black! Didn’t see the door, sorry! But on the other hand i really believe i was in a totally different land/city ….. Argh missed my ordinary ferry to west-geramany and uuuhm got on another one and landed where i wasn’t supposed too uhuh in east-germany)
9) Got my identity mixed up with an 18-MONTH old male-baby when trying to get back from yet another european country. (Hard to explain to the borderpatrol, of course they tried to say they didn’t do anything wrong at the travelagency but still to be accused of being 18-months when 30-years is a bit too far out even for a female who doesn’t wanna get older. 18 years hmmmmm maybe but months naaaah)
Well that’s a bit about me and more to come later
