My name is Craig Gold, and I've been playing poker as a lucrative serious hobby for several years now. Recently I quit my job to start my own business and took some time off to play poker
From the middle of January - March 31st, I spent about 6 weeks grinding in Vegas. During those 6 weeks I played in 29 live mtt's and cashed in 9 of them for over 34k which yielded a profit of 19.9k. Please feel free to check out my results on Hendon Mob

I live in the San Francisco Bay Area where there are very few tourneys that report results (if any other then the WPT Shooting Star). If they did, I'd have a ton more results reported over the last few years.
During the same 6 week Vegas grind I also played over 288 hours of cash games ranging from 1/2 - 5/10 ending with an hourly of $32/hr (of the 285 hours, 227 of them were played at 2/5)
I have been in Vegas since the Series started and am currently making $67/hr playing cash games(primarily 2/5nl) and unfortunately, I've been running icy cold in BIG tourney spots that has resulted in me only being up $1,100 in tourneys so far this summer
I will be tweeting out several updates during play. Updates will include pictures of my tournament receipt, chip counts, some hh's and I'm sure some random thoughts along the way…. Investors can PM me for my personal contact information and my twitter feed can be found at
