Age: 31

A little about your signifigant other: She works in commercial lending in a large Irish bank. She's pretty supportive of my poker playing, mostly because I keep telling her she'll be able to buy stuff for the house with the money I win. I wonder how long she'll keep buying that one!

Misc stuff I haven't been posting much lately (not that I was ever a prolific poster). My wife and I just had a son four weeks ago. It's amazing how little time you have for things like poker and posting/reading 2+2 with a baby in the house! I've moved to 1/2 6-max recently and I'm barely keeping my head above water, but it sure is fun!
