Getting my engineering degree as an adult is perhaps my proudest accomplishment, but if I had it to do again, I wouldn’t do it.

Same here. When going to The Univ. of Memphis, I had a wife, daughter, house and a nearly full-time job at FedEx working the 3rd shift in the Hub here in Memphis, while getting through engineering school. Looking back, I could never see myself doing that again. I guess I had a death wish, but life is good because of it.

Nice post Andy.

Good thread. Well, I'm the old man of the fourm (Larry and DOC AZ, come back!) at 48.

Married coming up on 15 years, 3 kids ages 11, 8 and 3 months, live in Westchester, about 1/2 hour from NYC.

Work as an advertising writer/creative supervisor for a big agency. Write everything from Web sites to TV spots for big corporate clients.

Been playing poker in nickel dime home games my whole life. Got serious about five years ago.

Best poker accomplishement is being a significantly winning player.

Accomplishement I'm proudest of: co-writing two poker books:

The Pocket Idiot's Guide to Texas Hold'em

and (coming in April)

The Ultimate Guide to Poker Tells

Gelford, I am going to Copenhagen in March...can you give me the lowdown on places I need to hit up?

[PoorLawyer]

How old are you? WIll be 30 in September
Where do you live? Washington, DC
Are you married? Girlfriend/Boyfriend? Children? Girlfriend I met the first day of law school and have been going out for 5 years now and live together...no kids!
Occupation besides poker? Real Estate Attorney right now. Hopeful powerball winner in the future.
If studying (or if graduated), what and where? Syracuse undergrad, George Washington Law
Favorite movie? So many good ones....
Music? Really into indie rock right now...The Stills, The Shins, Elefant, Snow Patrol. Big Soul Coughing fan. Grew up in Buffalo so I like some Canadian music like The Lowest of the Low, Tragically Hip, Alun Pigguns....I could go on.
Best poker acomplishment? Nothing too exciting...taking 500 a couple years ago and adding a zero and then some is probably it. Got into the final 4 on a freeroll for a WSOP seat a couple months ago but blew it.
How long been playing? Sometime a little before that Moneymaker guy got on TV, otherwise I would probably be a hold em player.

[Gelford]

Depends on what kind of places you are looking for [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
