    BadAzz

    This nick was officially created for online gaming purposes. Just a tweaked version from badass obviously. The nick stuck and nowadays I use it a lot on the net.

              I try to play to maximize profits; Shamwoof calls it 'Hoggin (guilty as charged). I'll also hedge favorable positions to guarantee a win (sometimes opening up a middle). Thus the term HedgeHog.

                As long as '94 wasn't your year of birth ('49 is alright), it's ok by me! Being from the US, I don't want to see gambling laws violated (God forbid).

                  I thought when I signed up after lurking for a couple months that I might end up becoming another jjgold.

                    Not sure I understand. Did you aspire to be JJ, or fear it?

                      I go to vegas at least once a month. I'm known amongst all my friends as "mr. vegas".

                      Anyway, I love watching the roulette board and when I get an intuition I throw bejamins down and I don't have time to exchange for chips since the ball is in motion. The dealer always yells to the pitboss 'moneyplays!!!!' so ever since then I went with it.

                          I was very drunk at the time

                          It was kind of how I felt.

                                good question. I'm not sure. Maybe a little of both. There's no doubt, though, that his name is where my name came from.

                                      Long story short I've got big stones....

                                      In the UK testicles are called bollocks. I'm the kind of gambler that's never afraid to test the limits, and I certainly don't have to have the ball to run with it (be it at the poker table, sportsbook, racetrack, etc.). One day years ago I put in a 500 pound wager on a boxing draw at 18-1, the sucker hit, and the guys around Paddy Power kept telling me "son, you have some mighty gigantic bollocks."

                                      I would say I'm in the top .00000001% for crazy ass swings, and can tell you some wild stories of both success and failure....

                                        Bull is my nickname, but it is taken as a screen name nearly everywhere I go. The suffix was a whimsical add-on as I was reading a book about Persia at the time.

                                                          As most of us know, there is no such thing as a lock.

                                                          So of course I picked, TheLock.

                                                              Pearl Jam is my favorite band. A few years back as I was signing up for PokerStars, the song Immortality was on so took it as my screeen name. Decided to use it here as well. Kind of like my gambling nickname now.
