Good luck with this Tim. You mentioned a while ago that you were thinking of starting a diary. Glad that you've managed to get round to it. You're coming across on the forum just as well as you do at the tables. Never seen you moan or grumble yet. A couple of questions Did you work your way up to your present stakes online or go straight in at those levels? I know you play live a fair bit. Any nice binks to brag about? I'll definitely be at the mini. Hope we can catch up. Good luck Posted by Jac35
Hi Jac yep I finally got round to doing it lol. Yeah I don't like to moan not a big fan of moaning at the software or players making loose calls and ranting in the chat box and blaming live dealers for me losing I just get on with it and move on to the next hand. I started being really good with bankroll management about the same time i started keeping diarys and slowing moving up the stakes after that. No my Hendon mob is pretty poor but to honest never really played any comps over £300 and last year maybe only made 5-8 trips live but i wanna put myself out there abit more this year. But yeah should be playing the Grand prix at DTD and the Ukpc Mini so yeah be cool to meet up.

Thought you'd been at it longer Timmy, but you must have went full time around the same kinda time I did. Best of luck for 2015, I'll see you at UKPC no doubt, hopefully we'll have both won our ME seats but either way I'll play the mini.

In Response to Re: Timmyrara 2nd year being a PRO : Caistor mate, work in Boston a fair bit with Western Power Distribution. Do you know the town legend Adie Daubney who was on come dine with me?? Posted by waller02
Haha no I don't no him but my mum and dad have meet him be4 he was pretty funny on come dine with me.
i love town legends. birkenhead has roland 'two-ties', plank and the birkenhead-tranny. with guest appearances from purple-aki. tell me about this character... Posted by TeddyBloat
He's just a funny guy teddy. He works for the same company as me and is always a good laugh. Old school mod, rides around on his scooter.
It has to be said that he is the "self proclaimed" town legend though......but still a top man. He appeared on (and won) Come Dine With Me a couple of months back and had me and the lads at work in stitches.
Slight derail over anyway........all the best with 2015 Timmy

We have 'Plaggy Terry' in York.
-Owns a hairdressers that is as empty on a daily basis as my poker account. -Used to drive a soft top BMW, now bikes everywhere. -More fake tan than Carlo. -Suspected drug dealer and has an interest in girls way younger than himself. -There was a FB group called 'Plaggy Terry, love him or hate him?', that had thousands of members, but it has died a slow painful death. -Often likes to claim he's being considered for *insert any reality show* but thus far his face has yet to grace TV, thankfully. -If you're from York or visit regularly, you'll know who he is. -In case there is any doubt, he's a massive twa....

Most of the people round the town enjoyed him on the show so defo a Boston ledge. Thank you for your support
watched you play a lot and great to see a pro write a diary! I think that having a 15-20k profit is a VERY decent wage. People need to remember that is tax free, so if earning 20k net that is like a regular 30-35k job which is better than average 27 year old! PLUS........ that wage plus your doing a job you LOVE = priceless. Run well and look forward to reading the progres Posted by Nuggy962
Here here! A very decent wage. It takes alot of guts to take a chance on going in a new direction....best of luck Timmy, my namesake.
You've always been sat at all thes table in the DYMs when I've tried moving up, always put me off! The alias, anything to do with this? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rah-rah_skirt Perhaps you used to be a cheerleader, or a teenage girl in the 1980s... GL with 2015 Posted by bbMike
Ha Ha I enjoyed my nickname until now. Named after a cheerleader Skirt FML!
Good luck with the diary and your 2nd year as a pro.
Hopefully it can help focus your game/bankroll and improve what is already a very respectable set of stats. As you know I've always respected your DYM solid style of play and it's always easier to make the last 3 when your not taking 1 of the spots. I'm sure we'll bump into each other probably another few thousand times....lol
