Jeff started playing poker when a friend brought a plastic poker chip set to his soccer team camp at the University of Michigan.  Here in between training sessions, they would play $5 tournaments or .25/.50 buy in cash games.  Jeffloved this instantly.  Jeff always liked to play board games, video games, any type of games.  When he learned you could actually make money doing this hewas sold.

Jeff shifted into the live poker scene and began to get back on track with a healthy style of living which after graduating college had fallen out of being active physically.  Jeff has worked his way up to playing as high stakes as $1,000/$2,000 NLH cash games and the $100,000 “high roller” tournaments with finishing 3rd at the first ever Alpha 8 tournament at the Hard Rock in Hollywood, FL as well as a 2nd place finish in the $125,000 invite only most recent Premiere League season VII.  Jeff has had some close calls for major tournament wins with a 2nd place WSOP finish and a 3rd place WPT finish but winning a major tournament has alluded him.  Jeff has a tremendous amount of respect for the game of poker and all of my opponents and believe that there are so many attributes in poker that apply to all areas of life.
