New to the forums!

Posted 8 years ago

Hey guys,

I thought I'd make a brief introductory post. My name is Fergal and I'm just after joining these forums. I've been playing poker now for approximately 12 years, starting out as an underage 16 year old grinding the play money tables before I turned 18 and could play for real. I was never an atrocious player but I was not a winning player until approximately one year ago when I started watching twitch streams and improving. I work fulltime in the IT industry and treat poker as a recreational hobby on the side where I can make some extra income.

I took a hiatus from poker at the beginning of this year due to college exams and since I've redeposited back in March I've been streaming the vast majority of my play. I started out playing 10NL with $200 and since then I'm moved up to 25NL will be looking to start taking shots at 50NL in the near future. I'll be making some video content for the website in the coming few weeks and I'll be aiming to become an active member in the forums as well.

I'm looking forward to getting to know more of the forum members and if anyone has any questions feel free to fire them at me!

Also, I'm still actively streaming on twitch via the channel https://www.twitch.tv/fergb12345 if anyone wants to come hang out and say hello while I am online.

Welcome, sir! I'm sure you'll be a nice addition to our happy little community. I find myself having less and less time for twitch.tv lately, but I followed you and I hope to catch a bit of your stream in the near future.

Welcome bro but do me a favor and add in a profile pic! Your name at top right of site > Dashboard > Hover over profile pic area > upload

Looking forward to seeing the forums reaction to the content - something we have not had for a while is someone who really grinds the micros producing such content. Really the best I have seen for a very long time!

I will be getting a picture up shortly, I just had no photos on my new laptop to choose from! I'll have one up in the next day or two.

And thank you for the kind words, much appreciated Smile
