sevens

Name: Jaron

Age: 24

Location: St Paul MN

Profession: College student

How long playing poker: I'd say about 3 years or so. I started out playing limit because the first book I read was Phil Hellmuth's. I learned slowly, read a lot, played cash games with friends, and 2 or 3 weekly tourneys. Last summer I started playing real money on Full Tilt after winning $5 from a freeroll. I have steadily built that up playing sngs and 10NL.

Poker Sites: Full Tilt - sevens113

Interests: Music is my LIFE. I am currently going to college in pursuit of a professional career in music, playing guitar. That is my top interest and passion, both in playing and singing/songwriting. I also play the non-meathead sports, like bowling, golf, fishing...and the dude-brah in me loves playing hockey (14 years =P) . Of course, poker ranks up there as well. Yes, for the goal of one day making a decent side income, but I also love the challenge, and the fact that its such a mental game. It keeps me sharp.

And finally, my ugly mug:
