Re: How old are you? Where do you live? Best poker achievement?
 

here we go


I'm 20yo. June 11, 1985.

Live in Los Angeles, CA (in the dorms of UCLA) or Torrance, CA when i'm not in school.

Girlfriend of 1 year and 3 months. No kids, but soon an uncle.

Student/Slacker.

English/Sociology double major witha minor in geology. Probably dropping the sociology major though.

High Fidelity!

I've been playing for 2 years or so now. My biggest accomplishment is recovering from all the debt I put myself in when I was a losing player who would always play way above his bankroll. Biggest cash in a tourney is 10k.

Re: How old are you? Where do you live? Best poker achievement?
 

I am 29 years old, my B-Day is June 25

I live in Jacksonville, FL

Got married last year, no children.

Am currenlty a 2L at Law School - had a real job for a while, hated it so I decided to go back to school. Am lucky because my wife has a great job.

Favorite movie is Goodfellas.

I guess my best poker accomplishment would be building up my bankroll to 1K from $50 playing the micros and bonus whoring alot. Havent played many MTT's, probably around 20 or so, but have made two final tables on Pacific's 15 K gauranteed, once busting out 8th and once busting out 7th.

I have played poker for a while, but only got "serious" about the last year or so. I use the term serious loosley though because I am still not all that great but have learned alot reading the 2+2 books, especially SSHE. I have been kinda bored with limit poker lately - being a gambler at heart it's sometimes hard to be so patient. Currently looking to get more into MTT's and have been playing some heads-up NL SnG's on BoDog.
