Hello, my name is Brian Hastings. I've been playing poker professionally since roughly 2005. I've primarily been successful playing online cash games (I still play them regularly), but also have plenty of MTT experience, both online and live. I started playing mixed games around 2008 or so. I wasn't very good at first, but I've put a lot of work into improving my mixed game play, both at and away from the tables. All 3 of my cashes at last year's WSOP were in mixed events, including 4th in the 5k O8 for ~96k. I've played most of the mixed events over the past few years and am familiar with a large portion of the player pool. In the 50k, I've made day 3 the past 2 years but came away empty handed both times.
I've been living in Fort Lauderdale, Florida for the past year and a half and have cut back on traveling, mainly just playing online and playing live poker in South Florida. I am excited for the WSOP though, have a house booked, and plan to play a ton this summer.

I plan on keeping at least 20% in the 10k events and 10% in the 50k so the tourneys are still bigger for me than a $1500 with 100% of my action would be. Let me know if interested and/or if you have any questions.
