Hello, some of you may remember me, the majority of you probably don't.
After a 1+ year hiatus, I've decided to get back into poker.
A little bit about myself.
--
January 2006
I deposit $200 into PokerStars, comb this site, read as much as possible. Start building a decent roll.
August 2007
I start Poker Donors. I play my last hand of poker, and dedicate all of my free time to the site. I cash out my PokerStars account of $1,100 dollars, and vow to not play another hand of online poker while I'm the administrator of the site.
In total, the LP community donated over $2,000 (thanks in a very large part to Saki Saki) in a short 2 months of activity. It's something that I am extremely proud to be apart of. To this day I have 2 kids show up on my statement every month that I don't quite have the heart to cancel.
October 2007
I get a dog, I get engaged, I start a new job, my fiance and I move into a new place. I no longer have the time to administer Poker Donors, so I close the site. The work was a lot more than I was ready for: multiple ideas on where the money should be spent; exhaustively researching charity after charity; possible tax implications; hourly site maintenance/processing of transaction emails. I was basically overwhelmed, and had to cut out all of my side projects/hobbies to keep up.
It was a hard decision to close Poker Donors, because it had such a positive impact on a lot of people. I was once asked to hand the reigns over to a more resourceful entity, and I now regret the decision I made to turn that offer down.

Present Day:
Things have calmed down a bit, and I want to get back into poker.
Poker has always been a fascinating hobby to me, and I have been missing it. My playtime was early in the morning before I went into the office. There was something about jumpstarting your brain at the buttcrack of dawn that really got the day going on the right foot.

Anyhow, I'm looking for a new site - preferably one with RakeBack, and a deposit bonus.
I currently have 21,000+ FPP's on PokerStars, and it says I have to increase my member level to cash them out (?). So I guess I'll just start there for now. My plan is to deposit $500, and start at 25 NL.
Any advice on which poker site to go to from there? Once I'm able to cash out my FPP's, I'll probably be leaving PokerStars to go to a RakeBack/Deposit Bonus enabled site.
I remeber when i started poker i always read your blog
especially some very wired dogpenis stuff >-<
lolz
nah i mostly tried to become as good as u play some Nl25 and Nl50
back then I was a 1.75$ SNG player and some Nl10
U see what i did there with A8 ? He 4 bets and there we go insta jam A8 : ---booooom -- . hahahaha ( Krantz)

what's going on man, i remember you used to badger me about shortstacking and shit. I've gotten a little better since but I still can't really get a roll going. Gl to you sir.
phil hellmuth is genuinely a stupid person and he does not understand poker very well at all - [vital]myth

Since when has dogpenis stuff been weird, and why didn't anyone tell me?!

Hey dawg, gl to you as well. We'll grind it up together.
EscapingR:
Hey Eh, it said somewhere that 20k FPP points can get you $200? That may only be usable on PS.net, though...
IDK, I figure if I spent all that time getting those points, I may as well try and collect on them in some way.
