I've been playing poker since I was 5 (at least I knew what the hands were, etc). I started playing no-limit Hold 'Em around 1996-97 and introduced the game to many of my friends, before it grew into the monster it is today. I love playing dealer-call-it home games as well with a great group of players. I hope to be semi-amusing on my blog and it won't always be about my bad beats, I promise! :-)
