My name is Buddha (Rob) and play as “BuddhaX” on the majority of the sites. I started playing online in 2004 on Party Poker. I had a great run playing $20 Single Table SNGs there and a few MTTs. Unfortunately back then I had no idea on BR MAnagement. I quit playing for a few years then was drawn back in 2008 Playing $1-2 NLHE cash games. Again successful from the beginning only to go busto again with lack of BR management.

Last year I began my quest to satellite into the WSOP ME. I was getting deep but not winning my seat. I had 2 top 10 finishes 4 top 20 finishes out of 8 attempts. I decided take my bankroll and get a coach after reading Bluff article on Jeremy “DaisyXOXO” Fitzpatrick. Since then I’ve been working with David “The Maven” Chicotsky and Ari “BodogAri” Engel.

I’ve been having some descent results but wanted to continue my education. I’ve read and heard great things about Casey and Ryan. I thought this was the best site for me to continue learning. I play micro to mid stakes MTTs. I also prefer playing live MTTs.

I’m from Pittsburgh and currently reside here. We are making the move to Vegas as soon as both houses sell.
