Who is moonrat?

May 17th, 2009

“Who is moonrat?”: twice someone has entered that phrase into Google and ended up at this website. I think that is genius. A couple of people (or one persistent person) really wanted to know who I was. Why would be people want to know who I was? Unfortunately I’m not some superstar under a pseudonym; just a mid-twenties British guy who likes his online Pro Evo, got this nickname at work, and has a thing for trying to help others play it too. Maybe I shall reveal myself bit by bit as to what I like.

Here’s my last.fm profile as a start, to see the kinda music I like :)

First Poker Success

April 8th, 2009

One small chip for man. One... giant chip for moonrat-kind

One small chip for man. One... giant chip for moonrat-kind

I’m not very good at poker. I tend to get bored quite quickly, so even when I’m in a good position I’ll get a good hand and lose a load of chips as my blind focus thinks that only I could possibly have a good hand. Which mainly turns out wrong.

But today….. well today I conquered the jinx of never winning a table. I’ve had a couple of 2nd places, and many 3rd places, but never a win. I nearly went out bored; there was 1 guy with 4000+ chips, with the other 3 of us on around 1500 chips, all refusing to commit in case we went out. However, for once, instead of going gung ho recklessly, I stepped up the aggressiveness, becoming one of those players who puts you in awkward situations, pressuring you into tough decisions. That combined with a few good hands led to me grinding down the other players.

It’s …. ALIVE!

After over a year of having nothing on this domain name, I’ve finally gotten around to putting something here. It’s not much, but with an audience of zero for now I’ll just add stuff when I’m bored. I’m quite liking WordPress, very simple to setup, and looking quite easy to modify too.
