Online Poker Musings

Players looking to download free poker  will be contemplating playing at UB, so I would like to introduce another UB pro, Adam Levy. You might know him as “Roothlus” since he uses that alias on all the major US friendly poker sites. The 28 year old professional was born in New York but he has since moved away and now lives in Florida. Before he discovered poker, he made money by waiting tables while also going to school.

Levy’s cashes on the best online poker sites surpass the $3 million mark. An inspiring thing to know regarding Levy’s resume of online cashes is that there isn’t a single tournament win that surpasses $387.5k, yet his winnings are still well over the $3 million mark. This goes to show his impressive consistency as a player. His $387,500 score was obtained by playing FTOPS on his Full Tilt Poker download a year ago. His next largest cash is quite a bit smaller: he won $80,250 for placing 2nd in Full Tilt’s $750k Guarantee. His largest PokerStars cash was back in 2006 in the Sunday Million for almost $57k.

Levy has some live cashes in US poker rooms to be proud of, as well. He actually just won his largest cash ever in the 2010 WSOP Main Event after finishing just outside the final table in 12th place. His consolation prize was $635,011 for his finish. Before this Main Event finish, his largest prize in a live tournament was for $266,445 in 2008.

Levy has his day mapped out perfectly when he plays online poker. He says he usually gets up at least an hour prior to playing on money poker sites because going to his computer first thing after waking up isn’t his style. He, like many other people, just can’t start the day right until he has a shower and some breakfast. He likes to listen to music while he plays although you might be surprised to learn his genre of preference: techno. After his day of playing on the best US poker sites is over, he jumps onto his XBOX and plays FIFA. Judging by his results, it would appear that Levy’s schedule is working just fine for him.

If you are inspired by Levy, go ahead and get a poker download and start practicing your game. There is plenty of free poker training online and you should notice vast improvement in your game if you use your resources properly.
