A little introduction of myself:
My name is Luna Bluffgood and im currently in my 6th year at Hogwarts. I'm about 5.5" and have blond long hair and my voice is all weird...
Ok that's a lie.
I'm no girl actually and I'm not pretending to be one just to get any pedophiles' attention. I am just a little harry potter fanatic (thx to Emma Watson, who was the reason I started reading th books) and found this nickname to be quite amusing.
My real name is Simon (I do have blond hair though).
I'm currently on semester break from law school. I study german law the University of Passau, Germany, which is situated at the rivers Donau, Inn and Ilz in Lower Bavaria right on the austrian border. I'm also doing the external law program of the university of London to study english law.
During the semester I don't have that much time to poker, because of the sick amounts we law students have to study (Hello Cutsss), but since im on break now I've been putting in quite a few hours.
As for poker, like most here I guess, I got into it through my StarCraft friends, when we played a few sngs at the infamous ToT LAN with Strafe, Muhweli etc.
I still play StarCraft occasionally (my nick is PfiliTheDwarf on europe, TheDwarf being my clan -ATTENTION BRAG- we play in BWCL-1a, but we'll go back to bwcl-2 
Of course I didnt't know jack about poker that time, but I eventually got the sick amount of 5$ from PokerStrategy.de and started playing 0.01/0.02 fixed, which kinda helped me to get a good theoretic undertanding of the theory of the game. Eventually I rose in stakes to 0.5/1 fixed with around 300$. Then I hit a nice downer to eventually go near broke.
I got lucky at the right time though and used my last 4.40$ to play a 180 man sng. I got farely deep in chips, but then had to leave and Strafe took over and made 4th place for me and I got shipped the sick amount of 57.60$. I tried fixed for a while again, but was bored eventually. I got lucky once again and won a sunday million seat in a 3+r with the help of my peers and then started out with NL. I pledged that I would continue playing fixed, because I found the risk of losing so much money in NL so quickly to be unsuitable for the nature of my character. Well, that promise didn't last, and I don't think I played a hand of fixed online since then. I didn't really enjoy getting called down until the river with bottom pair and that happened a lot since I played FR. I guess fixed limit can be quite fun, but I estimate that the real play starts at 2/4 6max and I never got that high.
Well, anyhow, I was taken right in by NL and managed a fairly easy transition. I think my fixed knowledged helped me a lot there, as well as Strafe, Muhweli, Mondi etc. so thanks for that.
Well i already bored you enough. I've been playing NL for a year now. I got up as far NL100 with a bankroll peak of around 4k. When I started studying last October I stopped playing for good until Christmas, when I went to Vienna with Dissy, Rob and Arthur to the Concorde Card Casino. After that I was infatuated again, so I started rebuilding my BR, then hit a downer, and combined with bad play that's not something you enjoy. After a nice February, where I made around 1,5k, I didn't have a winning month until this August now.
Due to my semester break I've sick amounts of time now (although I probably should be studying criminal law, but nvm). I played around 23k this month so far, which, for 4-tabling is quite a lot, compared to how little I played before.
Here are my stats for the month.

Not particularly great, but I am just glad to have a winning month again. Unfortunately I can't get a grip on tourneys atm. More on that in the next episode. I've been writing way too much now anyway.
I'm on a sick run btw the last two days. Feels good.

My nicks are NineOne0ne on PS, manyfold on FTP and Sushi-fish on UB, so don't be shy to say hi.
So long
