A Stranger Returns

edited March 2010 in Poker Chat

Hello Sky Poker Forum,

Its been quite a whle since I have set foot upon this website and I must admit there are some nice changes that seem to have occured.

Good to see so many of you still here and thank you for the warm welcome on the tables ...

My appologies for the recent absence, as some will remember I was beinging to embark on a bankroll challenge which apeared short lived.

My sole reason for not persuing this was the birth of my Little girl "Lilly Ann".

Turns out that there is much in common with the birth of a new child and poker ... Lots of late nights, no money and that feeling that its all going to be worth it in the long run !!!

A Year down the line and she is doing very well and I am ready to make my return to the felt, starting a new month with a new agenda.

The "bankroll" Challange is still on and there will be Plenty of videos uploaded to UTube showing everything from games to tactics and methods that I adopt ... Hope to see you all on the tables soon,

    Not sure if you have made any previously, or even deleted them since, but before your break had you posted any videos of your play on youtube? or anywhere else? If so, have you got a link to them? Thanx...

    Lilly Ann - how splendid!

    Welcome back Steve, & congrats on your new arrival.

    PS - Just a quick "nudge" - direct Links to Sharkscope are non-compliant. Perhaps better to suggest "look me up on Sharkscope", which is fine.

    Good Luck with the ongoing challenge.

    Hey ontheriver,

    just a really quick note -

    a had to remove your above post as unfortunately we don't allow direct links to Sharkscope. (feel free to post your stats, just without the links.

    here is your post with the link removed...

    "Thanks Everyone,

    Airwalker its nice to meet you, I'm sure we will have the pleasure on the tables :)

    I'll throw the link up for old times :)

    I'm back to my original £25 and you can track my progress.


    Great to see you all again and although it feels a little sureal at the moment I'm sure the feeling will pass once we all start swapping money again :P

    I'm going to be all over the £1.15 DYM at the moment so look forward to seeing you all there
    ."


    oh and Welcome to the Sky Poker Community - i hope your time with us is enjoyable!

    :)

    Thank you Tony and appologies for not reading the rules :(

    My hand has been slapped and it wont happen again.

    How about posting pictures of graphs and results ... would such a thing be allowed.

    I heard about poor Mr Orfords Bankroll ... Will do my best not to let the same happen ;)

    No need to apologise to me Steve, I don't make or enforce the Rules, but I just thought you'd appreciate the nudge. Bear in mind you can always Edit or Amend your own Posts. I always do that when I say something wrong - remove the evidence! ;)

    Hush, I don't want Orford finding out, I can get them past him easily.

    Only if you promise never to mention _woof_ on the telly ever again. I am now charged with the task of watching every repeat on 865 until I find it, just so she can have it on tape to show her friends :o(
