How old are you? 31
Are you married? Girlfriend/Boyfriend? Children? Gf, no kids

Favorite movie? Impossible to name one, so like everyone else, I will list several, even though noone asked: Color of Money, Star Trek 2, Heat, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels
Best poker acomplishment? Online: Two first places in a 3$ + rebuy satellite on Stars for the Carribean tourney; sold 'em for $500 each. Live: 6th and 10th place at a couple of Elk's Club tournies. Nothing earthshaking, but winning the rebuys was a thrill.

I've only been playing online about a year and i mostly do the Empire nightly guaranteed tournaments (5,000 and $7,500 guaranteeds) where ive taken 1st, 2nd, 4th, 6th, and dozens of 10-20 finishes. (I was top 10 on their MTT leaderboard for Nov. 04) Played on poker stars for a while just doing the daily $10 and $20 mtt's but got really sick of the 1000 entrants every time, although after about 60 mtt's i ended up breaking even (best finish was 4th in a 10$). Other than that i'd say my biggest accomplishment was just to stop being ignorant and stop depositing 50$ every week and then sitting down at 50nl, run it up to around $400, go to 100nl and blow it in like an hour. A few months ago i deposited 100 into empire and since have just grinded 25nl and i am continuing to build (a 2nd place finish in the 20$ buyin tourney doesnt hurt either). Hopefully soon ill be doing larger buy-ins and looking for my biggest win yet.

I won the second live tournament I ever played, netting around $2000. Well, technically, I chopped after getting headsup, but the guy had me outchipped 4-1 and wanted to chop 50-50, so I'd call that a win. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
