In 2002 I was given a $10 comp by pokerroom.com to try their site.By 2005 I had turned that $10 comp into a cash out of $150,000. I was given an all-expense paid trip to Stockholm Sweden for this accomplishment. I also did a little P.R. work for pokerroom with the Toronto Maple Leafs to raise money for underprivileged kids to go to camp. Pokerroom was bought out by Bwin in 2007 and closed. Live--In 2007 I won $30,000 at the Brantford Casino by finishing 4th-in the $500 buy-in. 7th-in the $1,000 buy-in and 5th-in the $1,500 buy-in all in the same week. I had a small write up in the now defunct Canadian Poker Player Magazine. I think the magazine has recently been restarted by new owners. Also in 2007 I played the W.P.T $10,000 buy-in at the Fallsview Casino. I made a mistake on day 2 and knocked myself out to the eventual winner Scott Clements.I have not played live since and spend my spare time playing/grinding small stakes Omaha both Hi and Hi/Lo on-line on 3 different sites.
