Default DERF is still Alive !

Hello Everyone, it's been a while since I have been lurking around the UMW.


Some of you know what I do for a living now and my First Big Break has happened. I placed 2nd in last Sundays 1,500 person WSOP $40,000 Freeroll and won a little cash and a $5,000 seat to the WSOP Main Event at Caesers Indiana Casino on Sunday the 13th of April.

I have been playing semi-pro Poker on a limited BankRoll for four years and have made just enough to pay the bills, but not enough to move up the ladder to the bigger high stake games. Last Sundays WSOP Freeroll was a blast and I had to finish in the money in this game without ever catching a Boat, Flush, Straight or Set. My reads on the other players were right on and now I have a shot at the big time.

Anyways enough about me, Who is going to the Dragon this year from the UMW ?

Pretty sweet. Maybe one day we'll see you taking on Johnny Chan or Scotty Nguyen.

I'll play some Poker with ya, you seem pretty smart and know when to come out of the rain.



Maybe you could teach me how to play, Moonliver.

I would love too take them on, they would not be the first Pros that I have knocked out of a tourney.
