WooHoo too, Don Hayes, 22. Aug 2003 07:53

Thanks to UPF and lots of reading/playing the last few months I am turning the corner to actually making money instead of investing in my poker education. Last night I won 22 dollars in 45 minutes playing .50/1.00 on paradise. Found a nice soft table with lots of calling stations almost zero preflop raising. Played premium hands folded at the flop if it didn't look promising. Won 100 percent of showdowns. I know that 22 big bets is way above the statistical expectation but I have been winning regularly now and my avg hourly rate is rising out of negative numbers. Thanks for the great advice and help all.

Congrats!

And I also have to say the same things about the advice and help here. I also just picked up my first final table (3rd place) the other nite at UB thanks in part to what I have read here.
