The standard poker story seems to be "I started playing in high school/college. I became obsessed with the game. I made a 20 dollar deposit, a year later I was playing 1/2, and another year later I was playing 25/50." There are a million of those stories out there, so I see no reason to tell my unspectacular version of it. It seems as regular a story as a girl from Middle America who moves to LA to become an actress/model, and in the mean time is a waitress. Trust me, it's a cool story if you don't play poker, but if you do, it's about as interesting as Sally Smith wanting to make it big in Hollywood.
I currently play anywhere from 5/10 to 25/50, depending on how I have been running and how I feel. I think my biggest strength as a player is my very deep knowledge of all my opponents. I have been playing 5/10-25/50 for almost 3 years now, and I have played over 200k hands ...

I have been playing 5/10-25/50 for almost 3 years now, and I have played over 200k hands at each of those stakes. Every hand you play in poker is a building block for the next million you will play, and I believe I follow that mantra well. I try my hardest to maintain as deep a knowledge of every hand I have ever played against anyone, and use it to my advantage. I have a strong understanding of poker theory, which is a good building block to work from to get better. My weakest trait is my lack of work ethic when it comes to putting in hours. When I go on a downswing I play probably 10% of the hands I play when I am on a heater. When you see me grinding every day, it's probably because I have been crushing, if you see me popping in and out for 30 minute sessions, I probably am stuck a lot that month.
