    I can see it now...Mike Sexton and Vince Van Patten talking about Gids at the final tableof a WPT Event.
    They will say,"He got his start in poker playing 15,000 SNG's online a week." :)

    Gids- Good luck,Man......I have similar goals myself to where I at least want to make most of my $ playing poker.
    You rock,man!

    Gidders
    It is great to see your posts here and very encouraging. Unlike so many self promoting players on this board, I think you are going to find a lot of support from this community in your endeavors. Your honesty is refreshing and I think setting out your goals for all of us to see is a key element in your journey. You now will have a group watching and ready to help wherever we can. For me it will be most likely saying Good Luck and Congratulations! Keep letting us in on the progress.
