Bonus Question: Share with us a bit of your poker story, do you still play? And why do you have an English flag!

Well not many people here know I played poker. But long story short; I dedicated myself to poker like I am currently with SC2. I remember the thing that made me want to play is when I saw screenshots of tillerman (ex-wc3 pro) multitabling 16 tables at once and though it was cool as ****. I played online only, read a lot of guides, watched a lot of videos put an insane amount of time into it trying to get good but I never really had any success. I put everything I had into it for about 1.5 years and whilst I made enough to stay alive I slowly lost motivation due to wanting a more stable source of income and not getting to the skill level I wanted to be at.

This is when I tried to take my photography hobby to the next level and turn it into a business. Whilst I was in the process of planning and even setting up my photography business I was watching GSL one day and said to my closest friend "I wish I could compete at that level, it would be amazing." She managed to convince me to go for it since I'm in the situation where it would be my last ever chance to try something like this before I get real responsibilities and stuff.

I have an English flag because I moved here from England about 4 years ago with my parents. Passed my citizenship test, just waiting for the certificate then I have a dual citizenship so maybe then I'll go Aussie flag if I think you guys are cool enough
