Hi all, I,m new to this site and would like to introduce myself. My name is John aka soletitbe on the sites i play on. I like hunting,fishing and of course poker in the nights. I started playing hold,um very late in life on Full Tilt about 8 years ago for play money and moved to PokerStars about 5 years ago and opened an account and put $500 US in it. I,m a widower and live alone in my home with my dog Babe so this is a past time to me and has you will read its a good thing because i would starve to death if i tryed to make a living at it. I never played at a Casino nor with chips live.
I play small buy-in mtts with a large field but after getting my account up to $800 i did buy in to the Sunday Million one time on a dare for $215 and cashed in for $440.94. That was foolish i know. I played 879 mtts on Stars with an average field size of 4,621 players and cashed 26.73% of the time ( as of now ) but only reached the final table 2 times. I cashed out all my money except for $20 dollars just before Christmas and i now got that back to $230 with some ups an downs. The reason i joined is to see if i can reach the final tables more and even the top 3 a few times by picking some of your brains on why my full houses and flushes that got me in the top 100 gets beat all the time there. And if i can help any newbies with small mtts i will do that in a heartbeat.
