About Me..
February 6, 2005
Hi I am Paul or Paulie, your choice, or online to my poker buddies I am known as Blagger or Blagz. I am a 49 year old (going on 19) male, living in Swindon (yeah I know my bad) England UK.
I started playing poker online about three years ago, after watching an episode of some poker show on the TV. I signed up with two of the more established bookmakers here in the UK and deposited about £25 into each one.Then for the next three months I proceeded to play free-rolls exclusively.
Having eventually won a couple of these marathon games (often lasting 6-9 hours) and pocketing the obscene amount of £2.37 or there-abouts for my trouble I girded me loins and entered my first real money game.
It was at William Hills and it was a £10 ($20) MTT and this is where the barbs on the hook that is online poker really took hold. Only having played poker in any form for three months I felt well out of my depth, so decided on a plan of only playing good pairs or an ace with a picture card.
Unbelievably this tactic saw me get to the final table, finishing 3rd and pocketing a nice little wedge of money! That was it, the proverbial hook, line and sinker was gobbled up eagerly by yours truly. And here we are today.
