I was an Army Brat growing up moving around a lot. My brother and i grew up on board games a lot to keep each other entertained. This made us very competitive. We were always good at video games and sport. I broke my leg very badly after I had a full ride to college. This caused me to never play soccer again.
My friend asked me to come to his friends home game back in 2001. I lost about 50 bucks in a nickel-dime game. I was horrible. I ended up going out and buyin 3 books because i enjoyed it and since I was stuck since i was in full leg cast.
I did a search engine at the time and found Pokerroom.com and played there for a while before internet poker became popular and loved it. (You mean I can play video games and win money for it)
I still have my competitivness from sports and my brother but now a new outlet to unleash it on.
