Post by infolock »

I've always been a big gamer and a big card player so maybe this won't be true for as many people as I thought... but i'm telling ya. texas hold em has almost ruined my chances of keeping a steady woman =) heh I can call about 10 different people for 10 different 8 people games, or play online, and instead of just getting a cartoon picture to shoot a gun, i get cash in my pocket. Not to mention free beer most of the time too ;)

Past 3 weeks i've won over 1400$ (760 came from a $30 entry to a 85 person tourney). I'm telling ya, this game gets a HOLD ON YOU heh.

Not a big card game fan, but playinig SOCOM II online on the PS2 is my current gaming obsession.

I love the tactical military experience it offers. 8)

No money involved though. :x
