Re: How old are you? Where do you live? Best poker achievement?
 
I'm 26.
I live near Boston.
I live with my girlfriend of 4 years.
I graduated from MIT in 2001 in chemical engineering and am currently a quality specialist at a life science company.
My all-time favorite movie is Back to the Future.
My best tournament was winning a Stars $22 LO8 MTT.
I've been playing poker since I was 5 with my large extended Italian family. I got serious with it in '01. I started playing online in the summer of '03 playing limit hold 'em and worked up to $15/$30 and a nice juicy bankroll. This past March I switched to tourneys (mostly NLHE) to change things up.

Best poker acomplishment? How long been playing? Got an account a while ago, and in one week of just an hour a day playing I raised it from $100 to $680. Its gone down since then, though. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] I dont play much online really, mainly because I feel im too young to be worrying about making money. Right now Im just reading up, playing with friends, and enjoying youth.

Feel free to add any other information or pictures about yourself you want to share.

I would just like to say that despite my age, Im an intelligent, mature, and outgoing person. You wont see any outbursts from me, and Im hoping that my age doesnt bother anyone. If it does, just reverse the numbers and pretend its 61.

Some of my hobbies include golf, (13-15 handicap) basketball (play on Varsity), bowling, (200 average) and working out.
