Tell us something about yourself none of us would know?

I work for Cheltenham Town FC as a football scout, have done so for the last 18 months. Travel here there and everywhere, from Carlisle to Yeovil to Scunthorpe! Went to over 55 games last season, watching opposition, new players at Premier League reserve level etc... Really enjoy it although it does involve a lot of travelling... Hopefully in the next 12 months i'll be able to take my UEFA coaching badges at the various levels, and in an ideal world switch careers to this (currently work as a 3D designer, designing playgrounds for schools, councils, holiday parks, theme parks etc)...

If I could change one thing about myself I would?

The need I feel to succeed in poker, and how annoyed I get when the wrong cards fall, when 1 or 2 bad beats hardly matters really in the big picture of the world when you look at some of the awful stuff that goes on, and how privileged we all are just be able to play poker for fun. This is so easily forgotton.
