BallsASteel's Interests
POKER GAMES:
I've won major tournaments in every game but RAZZ and HORSE. My biggest wins were 3k-12k seaters in Limit Omaha Hi, NL Omaha 8, Limit Hold 'Em and NLHE. I placed 3rd in a 2800+ seat Stud tourney.
POKER PLAYERS:
Daniel Negreanu is entertaining. Gus Hansen is fascinating.
LUCKY POKER HANDS:
I'm not a believer in "lucky hands".
CASINOS:
Bellagio is IT in Vegas. Cherokee in Tulsa (my hometown). Have never been to Monte Carlo, but plan to. Same with Macau.
ACTIVITIES:
Love OU football & roundball (no pro ball). Reading, writing, photography, storm chasing, technology, sailing, golf, travel, family, my faith, politics, wanna get back to my pilot's license. When I regain my health, tennis & wanna learn to scuba dive.
MOVIES:
There is no way I can list all the movies I like. The genres I prefer include comedies, action, history, the classics, biographical among others.
TV SHOWS:
Same with TV shows as with movies, far too many to list. Love comedies, dramas, Fox News, sports and documentaries.
BOOKS:
Normally I read biographies, history, business, Christian Living, politics, other faiths books and much more. I own around 2500 books right now.
MUSIC:
Jazz, classical, classic rock, contemporary christian, and good selections from almost any other genre such as country etc.
POKER PLAYLIST:
By playlist, I assume you are talking about to what do I listen while I play? I don't usually. I usually watch tv and surf the net while I play.
QUOTES:
"I may get outdrawn, but I'll never get outplayed unless I want to go take a nap!" ~ John "BallsASteel" Helander (Feel Free To Steal It)
