Hey there everyone, my name is Dan. I love this site, just joined the other day, I really am getting a lot from the strategy guides and videos, and learning some stuff I never knew.

A little bit about my poker history. I started playing online when I was 20, when to the casino for the first time on my 21st birthday, played blackjack for an hour and wonn 100 dollars. I have to say from this point on I was hooked. And I love every second of action.

I have been playing a total of 4 years recreationally, and I have had my ups and downs, nothing probably compared to some people here but some good stuff.

Overall I am not a winning player, but I work on my game all the time, and hopefully this site and everyone else will help.

My biggest tournament win was 1st place in a 6 max nl holdem for 4500 in 2010, and my biggest win at the tables was an 1100 win (2200 dollar pot) in 2/4. Very proud of these things but I need much improvement.

I am down probably 3500 for the year, which I don't consider too horrible considering I play online and brick and mortar casino twice a week, and like I said, I have a lot to learn.

I love playing cards, and talking about poker, I love reading about hands and learning from my mistakes, and most of all, action, action, action!!

Nice to meet all of you and good luckk!!

Right then Dan, hello there and welcome to the community sir!

Now, since you play at 2/4 may I suggest - alongside our fantastic hand evaluation judges of course, a couple of threads you may find useful.

In adittion to all the strategy material and videos and live coachings, this young man is giving his time freely to help with 6 max poker at midstakes and he's extremely knowledgeable and helpful.

*Ask me anything about 6max*

Also, there is a forum specifically for more advanced players where you can discuss strategy and post hands for evaluation.

I hope you have fun here at PokerStrategy and if you need help with anything else just ask.

Very best regards - and run hot!

Mal.
