Message: [QUOTE="Dara OKearney, post: 5125551, member: 390655"] First of all: massive apology to everyone for the radio silence last few days. I was flat out at the Irish Open. I promise to do better over the next few days. I was 44 when I switched to satellites as my main game (I learnt poker late at 42) I got into poker because I wanted to do something competitively where age wasn't a major obstacle. I'd played chess, bridge and backgammon competitively at a high level already and when I was 42 I was a top class international ultra distance runner but I knew the clock was ticking down on that. I saw poker on TV and thought it looked like something I could try my hand at. Biggest influences on satellites are Colin Moshman (his seminal book on ZSit N Go strategy started my obsession with ICM which is the crucial strategic concept to understand when it comes to satellites) and Tom Hall, the best satty player I've personally faced. Thanks for your questions! [/QUOTE]
