Default Hi from JimG

Hi my names Jim Griffin, I’ve been a full time online poker player since January 2002. I mostly play 2-4 and 3-6 FL which to some might not sound like it would be a good income, but by playing 6 tables at a time I’ve been able to do quite well. I typically work 3-4 actually hours per day (18-24 table hours) playing ring games (mostly non Holdem games) and spend the rest of the day messing around in tournaments and chatting about poker on various forums. Thanks to lots of great bonus offers and rakeback incentives the various online poker rooms offer, I’m able to comfortable make about $70K per year playing low stakes poker.
You can find me most often at:
Games Grid: JimGriffin or Absolute Poker: JimGriffn
I also play Party Poker MTT per week: Jim_Griffin
I have accounts at about 50 different rooms to take advantage of bonus offers and such but the three sites mentioned are the ones I most frequently play at.

Hi I figured I'd introduce myself also in this same thread. I’m the newest and youngest member of an internet poker crew; I guess you can say JimG is kind of the leader as he’s been playing the longest and has been the most helpful teaching me how to play. Anyways I’m 21 years old and earn a couple grand per month playing online. My favorite games are FL08 and 7 Card Stud/8, but I play plenty of Holdem (Mostly tournaments for Holdem).
I’ve always enjoyed playing at smaller sites and chatting in small forum communities. I hope to see this site grow a little so we can have some good quality poker discussions here. I’ll be checking in daily for a while, and will be happy to offer any feedback I can I hands, poker rooms, or anything else.

Yes I get burnt out from time to time but this is the case with most jobs. I do love what I do.
I work 3-4 hours per day playing a ton of tables, after that I'm playing for enjoyment.
