This sounds nice, but I highly doubt it's as special as a 7 fingered one legged asian (re: Junglen). I mean, just saying.

Turned 29 on the 26th of January

I live in Dublin, Ca.

I have been married for 2.5 years

I play poker full time, because I really disliked my boss and quit.

Some college, and some tech certifications (MCSE, MCSA, etc)

My 2 favorite movies are Shawshank Redemption, and Menace to Society.

I listen to a lot fo different music, from DMX to Def Leppard to the Soundtrack for Les Miserables.

I dunno what my best poker accomplishment is, I guess it's winning a Stars Sunday Deepstack, or finally make 2 simultaneous FTs earlier this month.

If the average age of all respondents were computed and became one person, would that person be of legal drinking age? [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Maybe just over.

Take me and the other borderline geezers out and I bet it's pretty close.

Jeeez, have MTTs become the realm of teenagers spending the college money that dad gave them??
