Hey everyone! My name is Dylan Duarte and I'm the new administrator. Tyler Cruz, who you know as KiD[ReD], is a busy guy so he asked for my help with running this place. I'm very much an amateur at poker, having only played with friends and a little online, though never for money. I enjoy it though and I'm hoping to pick up some skills from everyone here.

Just a little background on myself. I'm 25 and I've been a freelance writer for around 4 years now. I love movies, videogames, reading, and of course writing, both fiction and non-fiction. I like poker and I have a feeling I'm going to love poker after spending time here.

I live in Lake County, located in the US in Northern California. The county surrounds Clearlake, the largest natural lake in the state. Some would call it beautiful, and while it does have its moments, I'd rather be somewhere bigger and more alive!

I can't think of anything else to say at the moment. If you read this whole thing, thanks! If you have any questions, either about the site or personal, please don't hesitate to ask.

And just to make sure everyone knows, we know have a Twitter account! If you're on Twitter, head over to https://twitter.com/PokerForumsOrg and follow us for site-related news.

After you read this, please head over the Suggestions forum to check out my two new threads. I want your input!

Thanks man!

Welcome.

Hopefully this place can get livened back up some to where it was a few years ago. Not like I've been active recently either though.

Do you plan on depositing and playing online for money?

I'm not confident enough, at least not yet, to play poker for real cash. Plus, I live in California, so I'd have to jump through a few hoops to do so.

Awesome man. Welcome aboard. Even tho I havent been active in God knows when. I think its cool that theres an Admin that isnt a 'pro poker player' .. everyone has to start somewhere - regardless of your ranking on a forum. Good stuff man, good luck!
