Re: How old are you? Where do you live? Best poker achievement?
Just a realtive newb to MTTs....
32 - August 8 I live in Ohio, with my wife (we got married Sept. 18, 2004) and 2 dogs, Jack & Whippet. Those are our only kids as of now. Many IRCers already know this, but I am a funeral director/embalmer, and own 3 funeral homes(1 in my hometown and 2 in surrounding communities) Favorite movies would include: Braveheart, Million Dollar Baby, Star Wars (ep IV-VI), and Godfather I & II. I really haven't ever had a great poker accomplishment compared to the rest of the forum, but personally, 2 stand out to me: 1 - Finishing 5th out of 410 in some Paradise freeroll that I somehow qualified for that had the winner getting a seat to their Million Dollar MTT, and an entry to WSOP(this weas late last year).... for 5th, I got a whopping $65. 2 - A few months ago, out in Vegas, my wife and I went to Mattista's to eat, then did $200 worth of damage at Red Square... it was after this that I decided that it would be a great idea for me to play some NL HE at the Mirage.... I bought in for $200 at a 1/2 table around midnight and at 7:00 am as I staggered out, I have a little over $800.... Like I said.. nothing major, but fun for me. Here's a pic of the Mrs. and me: Gomez & Wife And a pic of the dogs: Jack & Whippet Oh yeah... I'll be at Foxwoods on August 5 looking to play some of their daily MTTs... If anyone else will be there, let me know.

Re: How old are you? Where do you live? Best poker achievement?
I turned 23 about 2 months ago.
I live in Chico, California. Too young for that stuff. Go to Chico State, studying Journalism. I think it'd be great to be able to be a poker player/writer when I graduate. Office Space. My best poker accomplishment is 1) 5th in a Party Friday Special and 2) playing the main event. I think it was cool to be in the main event after playing for less than a year (a year ago I was just getting online, the highest i had played was $10 house games. and i sucked.) Oh, and I guess busting Erin Ness in the main event is an accomplishment as well.

Re: How old are you? Where do you live? Best poker achievement?
Here goes. I'm 35, married with first born on the way. My day job is in advertising.
My best poker accomplishment--by a wide margin--is cashing in the 2005 WSOP ME after winning my seat in a live SuperSat at the Rio.
