I'm an engineer living in Houston. My gambling is purely recreational, and view my bankroll as an entertainment expense. I'm a fairly low roller, and also fairly infrequent, maybe 2-3 trips/sessions a year lately. I prefer games/bets with a "reasonable" HE that allows milking the bankroll for a while, to drink and socialize. I also like some element of decision making, although currently the most complicated strategy I can use is BJ basic strategy. I like studying the mathematical theory of games, just have not yet put forth the effort to implement it -- and, I know my limits and won't play a game unless I've studied it sufficiently.
anyway that's all about me, been enjoying reading the discussions here so far!

Just another relatively new member myself, but since I posted about intro's, and you provided an intro, I gotta come back and say, 'a hearty welcome aboard mate'.
Best of luck finding a game you'd like to focus on, and best of luck ( and recreational pleasure ) playing that game!
Welcome TwoFeathers! I have plenty of games that I know enough about to be comfortable playing, and I'm always going to seek variety, but yeah I'll see if I can find one to learn well enough to reduce that HE further!
