I've been playing poker all of my life, but didn't start playing Texas Hold'em until Moneymaker's World Series win. I do play cash games, mostly $3-6 and $5-10 NL, but like to focus mostly on tournaments. While I sometimes play the local weekly tournaments at the Hustler casino and have played few large multi-table online tournaments, I focus predominently on $500-2,500 professional tournaments at WPT events in Los Angeles and Vegas.

I have played quite a few events at the World Series the past two years, including the Main Event in 2005. My best finishes to date are a 2nd place at a $500 rebuy event at the Commerce, a 1st place on a Partypoker $100+9, and a few top 15 finishes at various events in the $500+ buy-in range.
