About Me

My names John and I'm a professional poker player. From a career standpoint, I support myself playing poker, and then invest my profits. I'm doing my best to become the next Oracle of Omaha (aka Warren Buffet). I love discussing philosophy and religion, and enjoy traveling and seeing the world. I love physics and astronomy, and I love to learn. I watch anything pertaining to things like the birth of the universe, to black holes, to when the sun will burn out on discovery/history/science channels. I know how cool that all makes me sound, but hey, who am I trying to impress? I'm a big sports fan, and I'm a huge Yankees and Giants fan. Boston sucks. :) I work out a few times a week with my brother, but I eat terribly, so I'd hardly call myself a health nut. I'm working on it though. I watch Mike and Mike in the Morning, I like all kinds of movies, from a total chick flick like Love Actually to guy movies like 300. I like most types of music, from country to rock. I'm an active Nintendo Wii athlete, as well as a guitar hero. I like meat and potatoes, I can do a rubik's cube in under two minutes,and I love my friends more than anything else in the world.

The Departed is the best movie I've ever seen...Rounders was largely the inspiration for my career choice...Diggstown is a movie few people have heard of but is the best boxing/gambling movie out there...A Few Good Men is just classic and makes you really think about right and wrong...Love Actually because I'm a woman...Family Man is thought provoking and emotional...I love movies that make me think
