| | | Hi from sunny Australia!
Hi all!
I'm a bit new to the world of poker in general, but I'm definitely keen. I've been playing for a couple of months, and have started to place regularly in local tournaments, building up a bankroll and my own poker set. 
As I'm also a movie buff, the start of my collection consists of the Cartamundi Casino Royale Deluxe set (200 low denoms) as well as 100 high denoms. I've seen the high-roller plaques you guys ordered a little while ago and I've very jealous...
Anyway, it's awesome to see all of the expertise in this forum! I'm looking forward to lurking and reading lots - it's gonna be a while before I'm gonna feel even remotely qualified to voice an opinion on most of the stuff I read here, but I thought I should at least say hi...
So, er... hi!

Welcome to the site - it is a pleasure to have you among us. The only thing you should expect to loose by joining is your wallet. Actually, you will probably be able to keep your wallet. It will just be empty.

It just dawned on me - this site has been here for this long with how many registered users and the name "rounder" was never taken before now?
Crazy.
