Wow it's been almost 15 years since I posted here.

I work full-time as a civic plumber and have a part-time casual plumbing job at a provincial facility in Canada still.
I've been mostly playing online mtts the past 15 years with some decent success. I played full-time for a year or so doing really well.

I don't have so much time now for mtts I'm married and we have a baby. I will try to play MTTs Sundays and Thursday nights and PLO cash games whenever I have short amounts time in between.

I have to check my bankroll but I think I have about $3000-3500 CAD. I had much less but went on a heater in microstakes making almost $2000 CAD in one day recently.

I am allowed to use the income from my part-time plumbing job and from side jobs to deposit to poker to add to my bankroll so this won't be a bankroll challenge where I increase it fully from playing.

I hope to get my bankroll up to the level where I can play a full Sunday schedule of $22-55 MTTs and I'm hoping 6 card PLO200 level.

I currently play $5-20 MTTs and microstakes PLO. Sometimes 5-card PLO 10c/20c to take advantage of promos but mostly 1c/2c to start and learn. Sometimes I play NLHE to take advantage of promotions and I try to be decently well rounded.

If I have time and the bankroll the live PLO cash games in my area are probably the best thing to play but it's hard to get away from home.

I'm 36 years old turning 37 this year and it's great to see how far I've come in the 15 years since I posted and I'm curious how far I'll get in 15 years. I'm hoping I set myself well up with a couple good jobs that have good pensions so I can retire comfortably in my early 60's and play a bunch of poker then if the games are still alive and well.

Welcome back and looks like you posted in 2021 for the last time on here :f_wink:

Good luck with a fresh start :gl:
