No. Graduated from Fairfax high in Los Angeles. Seeing as "Los Angeles" is about as descriptive as stating "I'm from Earth" =), I was raised in Sherman Oaks and then Sunset area.

I've decided that I'm going to splurge on an auto-start for my car. I can't handle the first 10 minutes of my morning commute when it's 1 degree outside.

Hi,
Im Allison, a female old fart from Atlanta.
I've been playing NLH for a little over 5 years. Started online with the post-Moneymaker boom like alot of folks, moved to free bar games to continue learning.
My husband and I are serious students of the game and own maybe 50 poker books, all of which have been well-read.
Now we run a weekly or twice weekly home cash game and I crush it regularily. Im up over +$3000 in 4 weeks

Since we are in Atlanta, we don't get to casinos as regularily as we want to, but we are building the bankroll to help pay for more frequent trips.

These days I play more live than online, although I am thinking about depositing again.

Nice to meet everyone.
Alli

Isnt that always an S.O.B. freezing to death when a heater IS on in your car full throttle but for the first 10 minutes you cant feel your legs and feet

I am originally from California and am now attending law school (I know I know). I play poker quite consistently online and have been doing so since I was 17 in California (using my brother's driver's license to get into hollywood park casino).
Anyway, I am now 31 years-old, study constantly, and recently found your site after getting yet another bad beat.

Anyhoot, would love to make new friends and see what this is all about.

Hi there, I wish I could understand where you are coming from but here on the south coast of New South Wales in Australia we haven't used a heater since we came here in'99. Guess you hate me now! (oops already did OK). Have a great day guys!!!
