I never moved up in stakes because I was always clipping the roll to pay bills and buy groceries. Poker saved my butt many times in that respect.
I still clearly remember playing 4/8 LHE at the local room one night and the table discussing the new poker show on the Travel Channel, think anybody will watch that?
Holy **** we had no idea of the explosion that was coming.
