Hi!

So going on the "guide" the description'd be 35:EN.

Maybe more like TEN where T = Total.

By way of introduction then, I work as a consultant for our favourite software company (yes, I'm ducking). My interest is primarily in cards. That got seeded way back when I first saw The Sting and watched Paul Newman's routine on the train.

So a big poker fan (five card draw - still haven't gotten my head around Texas Hold 'Em which seems to be the game of choice in the UK) and of course the flourishes and sleights that make it so compelling.

Um, re-reading that last paragraph: not into this to cheat at poker!

Anyways, having decided to do something about my curiosity I signed up and hope to learn, and maybe someday give something back.

Welcome to the boards.

I am a slieght of hand artist and I am surprized that my friends ever let me deal. Infact, when we gather for a little texas hold'em, they usually force me to deal since they are all too lazy. And they don't even question it when I habitually win. (Granted, this is due to employing techniques of psychology, learning NLP had a great advantage there and technically, thats not cheating!)

Anyway, I am all about cheating at poker. As long it is not for money and people don't mind the joke here and there.

:) I do not promote scamming by the way.

Welcome to TM.

I'm sure that you'll find much to interest you here including the odd enquiry about fixing members computers :lol:
