Welcome !
Hello and Welcome to Tilt Monkey!

Sign Up to the Tilt Monkey Game Forums Here!
The purpose of this website/forum is to help you engage in a friendly and informative poker discussion with other poker players across the tampa bay area. We aspire to be your main meeting place for local poker on the web and open to poker players of all levels of interest.
Discussions about poker strategy, events, personalities, history, games, and news are all welcome. You may just read what others have written, or you can post your own poker strategy and gambling tips and ask questions or answer messages. We have a very active user base that is more than willing to offer help or openly and graciously receive it.
Beginners are most definitely welcome here to engage in a poker discussion, as are recreational players and experts and everyone in between.
Here at Tilt Monkey, everyone has an equal voice. This board is ran by a commitee of 7 dedicated members who have dedicated a lot of time an effort in to the organization of this group and board.

A followup to our current active members:
I just want to tell you guys, (you ladies are one of the guys too) I'm honored that all of you have joined our group. I'm humbled by all the support I've recieved thus far. Lets see how far we can take this thing. I would love to see more people sharing in the conversations on the forums, and really talking things through, it is by us doing this we get better, face it, what we are really doing is sharing ideas and thoughts, but more so, we learn to appreciate all the nuances of the game and what makes people do what they do, when they do it, and why.
Anyone that says they can't help someone else get better is selling themselves short, anyone that says they can't learn from someone else, (even a worse player) is seriously hurting their development in a very critical and damaging way; By being close minded.
In poker having a closed mind, is a death wish, this game evolves, as does the styles of play, we must evolve with it, or get left behind.
Helping a member fix or find a leak in their game is the surest way to assure that your still mentally playing a good game of poker and it will help keep your game sharp. So what you waiting on? Get to posting your questions and comments! So be brave and post a recent session you've played, and ask for honest feedback, you might be surprised by just how much help you'd get if you just ask.
Thanks! ______________________________________________________________ Greg W.

Also, if you cannot understand Gary's post, you now know something essential about Gary, i.e. that often no one can understand his posts. This does give him an advantage of sorts in the right situation, but about half the time he wastes the opportunity since equally often he doesn't understand the posts either. - Greebo |
