Hey all,
I used to post to 2+2 a good amount under another account (
dexytp) back before Black Friday, was quite active in the MTT Community and Health & Fitness. I don't know the email any longer so we making a new account, eyyyo!
I'm Tom, been playing poker since 2006. Played underage, got money transferred to pokerstars when I turned 18, 2nd in a 10r for 6k and then went onto focus on cash. Did well at 100NL for awhile, got the tourney itch again and got staked. Had a huge downswing, got black out drunk one night in the dorms in the beginning of 2008 and lost $12k. Oh my.
I withdrew everything, quit online poker after that and have sparsely played live in Vegas & Europe since.
Somehow stumbled upon some Twitch streamers playing poker and I got the bug again.
Deposited $300 on ACR in early March and bounced up and down for a bit, won a few small tournaments. Heard about Bovada and decided to deposit $500 on there. Did ok in MTTS, well in cash then I had a stellar week last week and was up over $3k from a few final tables and good cash results.
The Challenge
From April 8th to May 30th
- 1.5k MTTs
- 1k husngs/spin n gos
- 50k hands cash
- 8 hours of study each week
I'm going to be grinding hard and smart. Mostly playing cash on weekends and tourneys/sngs during the week. Planning on going to the WSOP around June 1st and I'm going to be ready.
I also stream on twitch if you want to check out the stream at

I'll be updating this post regularly and I'm looking forward to coming back to the 2+2 community.
