Forum Adventures: Chenny8888's Poker Story
This week, Chenny8888 celebrates his 12345th post by telling us his poker story so far, from the humble beginnings as just another random fish to being New Zealand's poker champion. I also share with you some indispensable poker advice and a tribute video to our dearly missed American friends.
| Did chenny8888 win real money or just play money? |
Hello everybody! After a one week hiatus, I'm back to take you on another new adventure in our wonderful English Community forums. I had to take a break last week to recover from the shock of hearing the news about the developments in the US but we're now back to normal service!
With all the excitement happening in the online poker world, many of you might have missed chenny8888's 12345th post in our forums!
In it, he reveals how he first set foot into the online poker world, and the story of how he became a PokerStrategy.com coach, New Zealand's poker champion and a globe trotting poker pro.

Oops, I did it again
| Jesus, how could I be so stupid? |
We've all had one of those moments where we know that we made a stupid play, and promised ourselves to never let it happen again. However, when things turn bad, history inevitably repeats itself.
berzerger shares some of the promises he made to himself and it got the community chiming in with their own experiences and nuggets of wisdom.

We can learn a lot from each other's stupid moments
A tribute to our American comrades

| Here's to hoping that our American friends will return soon |
As you've already known by now, big changes are sweeping through the online poker landscape, and for the moment at least, it seems that we will all be missing the company all the Americans, who made up a large population of our opponents at the online tables.
They will all be dearly missed, especially all those "recreational players". As we mourn the loss of their company, bohemiagrove has shared a nice video tribute to our friends over there. Check it out, show your support, and lets hope the situation resolves itself favourably soon.
We miss you guys, come back soon!
That's all folks! Your faithful guide fishdianajones will be signing off for another week.
Come back next week, when I will bring you on another whirlwind tour of of your community forums.
Happy Easter!
