My Gratitude

I would like to thank the folks who have decided to invest their money in my abilities as a poker player. These people will remain nameless but they know who they are. Effectively people who know my abilities with the game of poker have purchased a year long stake in my newfound career.

I would also like to thank several people who may or may not know how much their support or knowledge has really helped me through some recent difficult times in my life.

Jan Bergstrom - My mom has been more than supportive of me over the last 2 years and has really been there for me in my hours of need.

Chad Major - My roomie, my brother from another mother, my friend when at times I felt like I had none. This guy has been there through it all and has my most sincere thanks. Oh and Majah you really shouldn't try wearing that thing as a hat anymore. Chad is also a very good player and still finds his way into games now and again.

Brian Oswald - Kind of funny but I remember when we were growing up and playing poker in Boz's basement, my garage or at a number of friends houses Boz always wanted to play these silly games called Hold Em, Omaha and 7 Card Stud, in our infinite wisdom we mocked him and promptly told him no one would ever play such silly games. Ahh to be young and stupid once more. Boz introduced me to the game of poker when we grew up and still plays the game and plays it very well.


Other people that have been important to my growth as a human being that eventually led to this path are: Carol & Rex, Jerry & Kari, Terri, Amy, Millah, Boyles, Shelly, Jessica, Tressa, Stephanie, Rex II, Race, Raymond, Buddy, Amber and of course I can never forget one of the greatest if not the single greatest influence on my life Gator, I know he is watching me and probably calling me a funny fucker as we speak.


I will be keeping this updated weekly (I friggin hope) and I hope you all stop in frequently and keep up on how things are going for me in this new and crazy life I have decided to pursue.
