I’ve been playing poker professionally since about 2004. Being a true gamer at heart, when I found poker, it was love at first sight. However, my first year playing poker was pretty rough.

I would hold my own in small stakes home games with friends, but always ended up losing my deposit when I took my game to the tougher online poker sites. I know lots of you can relate.

But there was always a belief deep down, that there must be some way, some method, by which I could make consistent profits playing poker.

I was right.

Here’s how. I found a community of pro poker players at online forums and other poker educational resources. My eyes were opened to real poker strategy. It was at this moment poker went from a hobby to a career.
