    The original Big Bet Poker? I hit that $25,000 bad beat jackpot that pretty much put them out of business. I used to play a lot on the Dobrosoft sites such as Americas Cardroom. ACR was my first online poker room back in 2001, maybe 2002. Then there was Popular Poker that had 5 card Omaha8 on Dobrosoft. PokerRoom before it became Ongame was another. That was an interesting time.

    I will always remember 2005 as one of the glory years for online gambling/poker. It was the year before the UIGEA was passed, and when all payment processors worked. What a lovely and magical time that was, I just wish I had a time machine so I could go back lol

    It was also the year Hachem took down the WSOP Although I wasn't even playing poker back then.

    I would do anything to go back to 2004 with my current poker skill set.
