What do you play? Hold'em, both Limit and NL. Online I try to mix it up with ring-games and SNG tourneys and the occasional large tourney if I have a lot of time to spend.

What stakes do you play? Mostly the micro-limits online and low limits in a B&M Casino like 1-2 NL and 5-10 Limit. My bankroll can't really afford it right now with paying for school and all.

How long have you been playing? I've been in the game and following it for over 4 years now. I didn't get really serious about until 2-3 years ago when I started learning how to deal and can do it as a part-time job on the side.

Where do you mostly play? I started out in the beginning with PokerRoom, because I could just play on any computer without a software download then I gravitated towards UltimateBet for awhile. Now I find myself looking at other sites and/or jumping back to PokerRoom. Casino-wise, I'm Canadian and live in Toronto, so I either head to Niagara or Blue Heron in Port Perry.

Why did you come to FTR? I want to take my game to the next level. I've had relative success in a B&M but always seem to stink it up online. I've started to pile up a sizeable library of books on poker and they've really helped. Now, I'm looking to benefit from the knowledge of the online community aside from my books and personal experiences.

Do you have any goals? I'm just looking to learn. There's so many aspects of the game that I have no idea or have to improve on such as all the calculations that need to happen in a short period of time as well as reading players both online and in real-life. In the end, I just want to be able to be a winning player, no matter the stakes. If I do well in the lower levels, I want to be able to move up and learn to succeed up there as well.
