Online Poker Musings

Players hoping to download free poker should consider UB, so it would be good to meet another UB advocate in Adam Levy. Levy will be better known to online players as “Roothlus” because that is how he is known on 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 became a professional poker player, he was a student and used to wait tables.

Levy has cashed for over $3 million on the best online poker sites, something most people cannot say for themselves. An inspiring thing to know regarding Levy’s online scores is that he does not have a single win that exceeds $387.5k, yet his winnings are still well over the $3 million mark. This goes to show his impressive consistency as a player. He won that $387k competing in an FTOPS tournament on his Full Tilt Poker download a year ago. He also won $80k on Full Tilt in the $750,000 Guaranteed. He earned his biggest PokerStars cash back in 2006 when he finished 3rd in the Sunday Million and received $56.9k.

Roothlus has some live cashes in US poker rooms to be proud of, as well. His largest live cash actually came this year in the WSOP Main Event after going incredibly deep and finishing 12th. Missing the November Nine was very disappointing, but he must have been pleased to add an extra $635k to his bank account. Before this Main Event finish, his best cash in a live event was a couple years ago for $266k.

Levy has a pretty solid routine laid out when he plays poker. He says he usually gets up an hour or two prior to competing on money poker sites because going to his computer first thing after waking up isn’t his style. He knows his day has gone right so far when he has had his shower and early breakfast. He likes to listen to music while he plays although you might be surprised to learn his genre of preference: techno. And then, when he has finished playing on the best US poker sites, he jumps onto his XBOX and plays FIFA. I like a man that knows what he’s doing!

If you, like many others, would like to see results like Levy’s, go ahead and get a poker download and start practicing your game. It should not be overly difficult to find plenty of free poker training online so even the most inexperienced player should make progress fairly quickly.
