I'm currently an electrician apprentice, pizza delivery driver, and competitive gamer.

There is no need to play the 3 year game in real estate, play the 40 year game.

Well now you have to decide what poker strategy you want, bluff and have them walk or possibly win the hand. 

After online poker was banned in the U.S.

There are quite a few poker players here that I would say are as entrepreneurial as anyone I have ever met.

Having read most of J Scott’s personal blog and following his New Construction diary here on BP, I’m fairly certain he’s the latter.Who needs crime dramas and cable TV when you have the original Dos Equis man right here – investor, husband, father, dog owner and poker player…- He once had an awkward moment during a negotiation, just to see how it feels- If he were to submit an offer without a price, it would still be accepted- The house inspectors often question him just because they find him interesting- He has won the BP Lifetime Achievement Award, twiceNow, in all seriousness, hold that thought and don’t change the price of those books!..

Horrible poker face I guess - or maybe just the fact that I was giddy which was not a common response.A big regret for me was that I was not more engaging with him when I was presented with that opportunity.

Some of my most profound findings on this subject were confirmed when I actually dealt with fellow gamers (strangers) in an internet cafe where they behaved differently to me in person and differently in game chat (they knew it was me).

Granted, I don't play poker professionally, and have a different 9 to 5, but his family life and goals for supplemental income are uncanny in their similarities.A little about me: I'm in my mid-thirties, recently married, and even more recently a new father to a beautiful baby girl.

Its like playing poker.
