After reading this thread there are a lot of posters who are younger than i thought. Since this sort of thread hasn't been done in quite a while, I figured I'd start it up again.

I'm 25, I attended Ohio State for about 4 years and partied way too much, as a result I'm still working on a degree at a smaller school here in Columbus. I quit my job waiting tables in April, and am now 8 tabling the 33s (soon to be the 55s).

Graduated law school in May, studying for the bar right now. After that either going for one more year of school to get my L.L.M in taxation or working in real estate securitization law...leaning towards the former.

Started playing poker a year and a half ago, been playing online for about 6 months. Attending University of Wisconsin: Madison, and considering a law degree. Currently 4-tabling the 10+1's, going to move up 8-tabling gradually. Hoping to use poker to pay for school.

Going into 3rd year at UW-Madison in nuclear engineering. I have grown to hate engineering and general and am giving it one last semester before looking to possibly switch to something else.

I highly reccomend finding the easiest possible way out if this is what you plan on doing as this is the exact same reason that I am still in school at 25 (i.e. engineering, hated it, have switched majors and schools etc.)

"Nukular," it's pronounced "nukular."

I'm 20. I just graduated from McGill University in Montreal, QC. I will be attending a one-year MA program at University of Chicago in the fall. I'm a student/research assistant/semi-pro poker player.
