    It's been a hell of a run, turned a $300 deposit into $150k in 2 months. I always thought I could to do it, but to actually make it happen, I'm just living the dream. I don't know what to expect in the future, but these last couple months have re-assured my faith that anyone can do this if they put the work in and studies the game. It was only a couple months ago that I was having my brother transfer me $100 at a time, and me going for broke every day. Now I am heading to Aruba, hopefully the Bellagio, and looking up which Beemer to buy.

    To everyone out there who thinks they have the ability ---- KEEP TRYING, don't let anyone tell you it's not possible ... The (poker) world is yours,

    I have to admit your game is sick. You do some things that most people don't understand. You made a call with KQ the other day in the tournament against a huge re-raise and I said to BR uh-oh there is a new dog in the pound. Most people would have had no idea that there cards were live there or they just wouldn't have wanted to look silly.

    Whether its a car or a house. BUY SOMETHING NOW. Have something to show for this great run. You are running well and you have something as a reward. Enjoy!

    P.S. 6 series convertible would be my choice-though in morgantown you might be better with a coupe. Though eventually you will likely end up in Vegas and you can use it there.

    If you haven't been watching the kid has mad game. Eventually people will start to catch up to him but he seemingly came out of nowhere to flat out dominate.

    This is common BTW. Reminds me a bit of Loewa79 or JJProdigy. Just in the runs they had to become the players they are now.

    Great to hear from you shipit, that's an awesome run. I'm a fellow west virginian, and I'm especially proud to see someone from WVU doing so well. Keep up the good work, I'm looking forward to seeing it.

    Could you explain how you got stated from 300? I definitely agree with whoever said buy something now. If you go on a bad run or something you will be happy you bought it
