Anyone remember tillerman?

Well in case u do, you pro'lly also know that he now plays poker for a living. This is his blog-spot(in case u are interested in what he's up to):
http://www.expectsomething.com/

From what I've seen, tillerman plays poker on ladbrokes on the 10/20 nl hold 'em tables under the alias tillerman99, and usually two tables at the same time, and usually winning.

Furthermore if u are into poker, he posted probably the worst bad beat story i've ever heard:
http://www.poker.dk/forum/read.php?TID=5133

On another wc3/poker-related instance, the orc-player Luhrman(former ownage), now also plays high-stakes poker. In less than a year he has graduated to playing up to 6 15/30 or 10/20 tables at the same time on the prima poker network. And usually winning!!what a feat!

Quinine, you say that he goes under the name Tillerman99, but in the badbeat-story his nick is tillerman, ergo it's not him? or...

I have no idea how poker really works and haven't heard all of those technical terms, but it seems Tillerman makes much more money out of playing poker than nearly every gamer is able to achieve. (except: Moon, Grubby, Fatality, Voo, zyz, Stermy and a few Starcraft Players.)

But that one is great: "I failed my driving test again. This is getting old! Three times now."

poker is fun. I used to play poker ONLY for fun, because I was afraid of losing too much money :D

#18 thats probably right but online poker is usual not about winning as much tournaments as possible but its about earning as much money as possible.
You know in wc3, in CS and in BW its about owning the best enemies you can find and dont play against noobs.
Poker is in that point verry different. I know a lot Dudes in Germany who lives from poker and they usual always play against totally noobs... theyr friendlist is full of noobs because they get the money from them...
And if you play on 3-4Tables with stakes like 5/10 you can earn usually more money than with tournaments (ofc not 400$ buy-ins but thats a limit not many people can own and so its another point at this discussion... or... well i dont know how to say, sorry ;) )

I know some people who earn sick amounts of money every month. They play several tables simultaneously and have several screens to view more tables at the same time ~~

I wish I cared a rats ass so I could make the kind of dough they make :P
