It's been 3 months... Newbie Update inside...

I just passed a major milestone for me:[attachment=0:6r5i633q]Cake$.jpg[/attachment:6r5i633q]

I can't believe it. And I have you all to thank for this, big time.

This is my account balance on Cake Poker after this weekend. I started the weekend at like $89 and was determined to break the $100 mark by the end of the 3 day weekend. I made it with like 2 minutes to spare. hehe.

I could go on and on about the difference you guys have made in my game. 3 months ago, I never even played a real money hand of poker online. I have yet to deposit ANY of my own money. I have been staked by a few generous people here and have been lucky and successful enough to pay it all back. Thanks again to those guys. You know who you are.

This is my Cake balance, by the way, after cross-transferring $50 to PokerStars recently and several $10 transfers to FTP.

I've played in countless cash games and tournaments. I've made it to 3 Final Tables at MTTs of more than 250 people (two with over 3000)

I'm hope to continue on this pace to become a good poker player and set up a tournament like Johnny's doing a year or two from now.

:bowdown: :bowdown: Thanks again everyone!!! :bowdown: :bowdown:

gj BL! You have the right attitude, initiative, and willingness to learn, all of which will continue to make you all the more successful. I think I speak for all of us when I say it's gratifying just to have made such a positive impact!

This means one thing. $100 Sng. Robusto now!

Well done, I'd be even more impressed except that I already know you have the humility and rational thought to be a good player.
