Jason, 37, from BAHstahn.
Photographer, network engineer and programmer by trade, currently working on a web-based program to help people improve their hand-reading skills. Former
Go player which actually goes a long way toward explaining why I like poker so much.
Moved from Rockport, MA to upstate NY, affectionately known as "the armpit" (and correctly so). A lot of people ask why I'd move from an
oceanfront apartment to here and the answer is my fiance, a harpist, physicist, linguist and RPI grad.
Which means that when we play Scrabble, well, I get my *** kicked.
Besides being amazing in general, she puts up with my swearing at the monitor and spending about 3-8 hours per day,
every day, playing, reading or studying poker.
Picked up poker a few years ago, read Ken Warren Teaches Hold'em which is, by far, the sh*ttiest book ever written on the subject. Luckily I stopped playing after about two weeks so none of that mindrot gained any footing.
Refound poker in June of '09, don't even remember how or why, discovered 2p2 shortly thereafter. Started with 2NL, moved to $2 SnG's, moved back over to 10NL Rush and happy to say I'm beating those stakes at a modest 1ptBB/100. Deposited $80 to start, ground that up to around $270.
There are many people who have taken the time to post replies but particular thanks goes out to Cry, Aces, ajrenni and Wilcox.
