Currently top 10 in Live Ranking in Australiasia according to PokerNetwork.

After WORKING THE 9-5 selling luxury cars, I eventually got hooked on the game and quickly decided that this was my new path.

I spent most of my days tackling cash games both live and on the vitual felt.
In 2008 I decided to take the leap and play full time with successful results in cash games both live and online before taking on the tournament scene in late 09.

It wouldn’t be until late last year when I started reaping some reward for my constant efforts when I cashed four times at the Victorian Poker Championships; including two final tables.

However it would be a trip to Macau in August where I would lock away my first major victory when I was the last man standing in the Asian Poker Tour (APT) Macau Heads Up tournament.

So far this year I have played 4 series. The Aussie Millions, JoeHachem Deepstack series (JHDSS), NZPC New Zealand Champs and the Sydney AZPT.

In the JHDSS I had a great run, with 3 ‘Back to Back’ final tables including a $6,000 2nd place in the $230- 6 handed fallowed by taking down The Accumulator for a 1st place $12,000 and my 2nd Title.

The week after the JHDSS I flew to New Zealand for the NZPC where I won the NZ Omaha Championship and locked in my third title.

I then Flew to Sydney where I played the Sydney ANZPT finnishing 41st out of 560 for a $4,014 cash.

I have also just won the March PokerNetwork 'Young Player' of the month award.

With the support from the ChipMeUp community, I’m hoping to make the 2010 poker year the most successful to date as I tackle tournaments around the world with confidence, ambition and a desire make final table after final table!
