I\u2019m 25 from Sydney, Australia. I’ve been a full time poker player for around the last 5 years. I started from a very young age. I first got into poker when I was 15, I seen a TV show called “\u6df1\u591c\u306e\u30dd\u30fc\u30ab\u30fc<\/a>“, I think it was one of the first televised poker shows from the UK. I thought it was amazing, so much fun that these high rollers were playing cards and travelling the world. It was weird when I was young I never worked to work a 9-5 job to me it seemed stupid. I used to read books on real estate and stock markets etc. But after watching this TV series I knew what I wanted to do, play poker!<\/p>\n

I used to play limit holdem, well started out doing this because I read Phil Hellmuths book “Play poker like the pros”. I remember depositing $200 as that was the minimum buy in for $5-10 no limit. I ran it up to like $2000 and thought this was easy. I withdraw and left $200 to play thinking I could just run it up again. Obviously I ended up putting it back on and losing it over time as most do when they start. Anyways I went threw a cycle of wining a micro tournament then losing it at cash games etc.<\/p>\n

About 2 years later I made the 2nd day of a pub special tournament with $5000 up top. The only problem was i was rostered on for work… So I did the obvious thing and went in on that day before going to the tournament and told them I quit. #YOLO. I ended up coming 2nd for around $2500 and this is where my poker career started.<\/p>\n

I discovered a few poker forums and started grinding micro stakes and taking everything seriously. I don\u2019t know what it was that made me a wining player but just something clicked and I\u2019m still here today.<\/p>\n
