poker experience

In '08, me, Jake, Mike, and Sarah started online poker with $100, inspired by Rounders. We flopped hard at $1 NLHE but found Two Plus Two forums. Studying strategy, we set a 10k-hand challenge to hit $500. Tilt hurt, but rules kept us sane Sarah crushed math, Jake hit heaters.

Months in, we entered a $10 MTT. Jake and Mike ran deep; Jake won $1,200 heads-up, 12x our seed. 2+2 cheered us; we posted "Basement Syndicate" brags. Cash funded dreams—Jake quit his job, Mike proposed. Variance hit, but we grinded back, bonded forever. Now scattered, we Zoom monthly. Poker with friends and 2+2 wisdom?

Unbeatable. Start small, study, win big. GL.
