About

I started playing poker in a weekly Seven Card Stud game in high school. I enjoyed poker's social aspects more than any profit I ever saw at the tables. In college, I didn't play again until the Texas Hold'em boom began and eventually became very bored of the $1 or $5 buy-in SNG style games we had in the dorms. This caused me to move away from poker, focus on my studies, and graduate with a Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration on the Dean's List from CSU San Marcos.

Poker would return to my life in the form $5 sit and gos on PartyPoker. I was able to grind a $50 bankroll into approximately $600. When the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act (UIGEA) was enacted in 2006, I unloaded all of my money and quit poker yet again. Finally, in January of 2008, I decided that driving one hour each way to my local card room wasn't worth the expense when hundreds of thousands of players were logging on every day and decided to learn No Limit Hold'em cash games, starting at the very bottom levels and working my way up using proper bankroll management techniques.  With a small deposit of $240, I worked my way up in stakes and currently grind away at the $100 No Limit tables on PokerStars profitably.

Currently I am the President of Powerplay Interactive, a website interactive design agency. A lot of what Powerplay Interactive does is content development for our client websites. This means that our company writes copy articles and films videos exclusively hosted on websites to help build their content sections. Of course, poker is a part of that content development, as we make content for a wide variety of poker themed websites.
