Hello, I am Kevin Johnson, a 31yo poker enthusiast. I supported myself during college playing poker, I was a winning 200nl-400nl reg on ACR from like 2012-2014 and then joined the real world working a 9-5 and only playing ~1 tourney on Sunday.
By the end of 2017 I had the poker bug again and made plans to take another shot as a full time pro. I quit my job, took a short term contract job near a casino and started saving up for a bankroll. By summer 2018, I was ready and drove out to Vegas for 3 weeks at the WSOP, playing mostly cash games. That fall I started travelling around the WSOP Circuit.
I binked a WSOPC Main at the end of 2018 and continued travelling in 2019, with solid results. If you play the tourney Circuit east of the Mississippi River, then we probably have played together. I was getting tired of the full time grind by the end of 2019 and then COVID hit so it was an easy decision to go back to a 9-5 and now I play online on the weekend and then travel for a tourney when I can.
I am attempting to sell $5k worth of action for the WSOP Main this fall. I have never bought or sold action publicly before and have always had the majority of my action other than a few $100 from friends who don't play poker.
There is no markup, due to this lack of history and references. I am confident that I will have an edge over the field but $10k is still too much money for me to drop on one tourney. If I can sell $5k here, and then about 1k to friends, it will be a number that I am comfortable buying in for.
I played the Main Event for the first time in 2019, having almost 90% of my action. I bagged 95k after day 1 and busted 2 hours into day 2. Doomswitch was engaged and I lost every pot culminating with me 4bet shoving 37bb TT into a big stack bb squeeze who had KK.
The WSOP Main is going to be one of biggest and, without many international players, probably the softest WSOP Main in 10 years. I want to be a part of it and hope others want to join me.
I am not active on social media and dont even have a Twitter or Insta. PM if you want my Facebook (although its probably not too hard to find me)
