I think this is really big of you (as is not nominating yourself, for those that didn't), but this award is for the newbies. Believe me when I say the vets are thrilled to have a few new quality posters after all that nonsense. Of course the vets deserve contest money and promo stuff too, and they get it now and then, but this one is newbie exclusive.
Because I said so.
BTW... contrary to popular belief (or at least what I think popular belief is), I didn't srart this forum nor do I contribute to it in hopes of getting rich. Sur e, it would be nice to make a few bucks off the site (and when all is said and done, I guess I do), but that's not my motivation. So as appreciation for you guys supporting this site by joining new poker sites through my links, I like to give back to the community too. It's win win win!
