How long been playing? Most of my life. Played a lot of 5 and 7 card stud growing up. Only started playing holdem a couple of years ago.

Best poker acomplishment? The first time I played live poker at a casino. It was one of the Indiana riverboats near Cincinnati. Playing $5/$10 limit, in the small blind with 24 of spades. UTG raises, and I'm already prepared to fold my measly 24 suited. Then I watched as EVERY player at the table called the raise around to me. At the time I didn't know a whole lot about pot odds and such, but I knew I'd be crazy if I didn't at least see the flop at this point. Well, the flop came A35 all spades. I nearly fell out of my seat. I'll keep it short from here... UTG had AA and made a boat on the turn, while another player had KT of spades. I raked in nearly $500 on that hand.
