I work in the software industry, and back in 2007, I was introduced to poker by a friend of mine who played a lot of limit poker in the golden days (pre UIGEA). I played the game for a bit and was a huge nit, didn't play a ton and just messed around when I had a chance. A bit later in 2009 I started to put in a bit more volume and play more seriously, put in ample time at SSNL and made a solid move to MSNL games. I grinded a decent amount of the midstakes games until black friday and had to move my play elsewhere since.

The majority of my play has been centered around 6-max, but I did spend a decent chunk of time playing heads up, but eventually returned to 6 max when the lack of action and abundance of hit and runs was too tilting to deal with.

My approach to the game is very flexible and post flop oriented. I am very focused on developing reads on individuals and classifying player types, and being a detailed oriented person this comes naturally to me. I love to talk/teach poker because I can articulate my thoughts very well, and I believe this will be evident in my videos/coaching.

In my spare time I'm usually just hanging out, training bjj, or playing starcraft like a huge nerd, oh and also hanging out with my soon to be wife.
