This is almost too coincidental.
The big V is what got me started in online poker. I had mine in June of '03 and basically spent the entire weekend in front of Party Poker. I had been playing for play money earlier, but used the forced "down" time to play with real money.
Recommendation: Get a bag of frozen vegetables like peas or corn. Keep 'em in your pants while you play and don't get up too quickly!!!
