Much love! - An introduction!Hey all, my name's Mike, 25 and I'm from Brighton UK. I've been trolling a little bit and just wanted to actually introduce myself to the TAGpoker community, it looks like you've got an awesome thing going on here.
I've been playing poker for a few years with mixed results, just recently been making my eyes bleed playing about 70k hands of Rush over a month. I've had some success with it but it's dawned on me that I was straying away from being a thinking player and more like a robot.
With that in mind I stumbled upon brokers coaching posts, I remember seeing this site way back when and thinking that the videos were great but then I've not been on here in ages so I started going through the videos and dear lord, they're amazing.
Jumped onto FT and started playing some HU games, just at $2 just to try out what Broker talks about and it was just amazing how well it all seemed to come together. I've signed up with Broker for coaching in December and am now a little bit too excited!
Anyway, that's me, just wanted to say hello, I hope to make all your acquaintance soon and contribute positively to this great forum.
Peace
Pingu
PS: I've got a $220 bankroll, what stakes HU should I be playing? Cheers

Hey welcome,
With $220 just start at the $5's, as the rake is too high at lower limitsplus its as soft as it gets anyway.
When you get a feel for the games and build it up to $250-300 move up to the $10's when you feel comfortable.

Oh dear god, no no no.
Well, okay, if you're after some trampy teens who dress like hookers and respond to every other question with "is it?" Then yeah, it's amazing 8P Otherwise there're some great little bars and clubs around, depends on what music you're in really.
Thanks BMM, look forward to chatting game with you guys.

Fine! We'll go there, but I promise it'll all end in tears, and a possible trip to the clinic...

Why should I care if they have to visit a clinic afterwards? And they can keep there tears too, I don't care much for that.
