Can you imagine that if you knew how little you really "knew" back then about poker you'd have chosen the same path? A professional with 19hrs of 1-3 stud huh? ROFLMAO

I don't think there was much that could convince me that I wouldn't succeed. While running chess tournaments and acting as President of the Boylston Chess Club in Boston, I interacted with quite a few chess professionals. So, I had some understanding of the effort it would take to do this.

However, I was prepared to fail. I decided before I left for Vegas that if it didn't work that I would just have to regard it as a 1 or 2 year super-vacation. Then, I'd go back to the regualar workforce and move on.
