Michael J. Mooney of The Miami New Times has written a long <a href="http://www.miaminewtimes.com/2008-08-07/news/pro-poker-hurts/1">story</a> looking at the aspirations of a few South Florida players who are trying to make a living in Florida’s poker rooms.  Here’s what one of them said:

Trevor, or T as he’s known in most card rooms, told me I should write about him. "I’m the best player in Florida," he said with an accent. "You follow me around and write about me and get me a sponsor." He said he could take anyone in the world one on one, that he can play all day, every day, and that he never makes a bad move. "Just when you think you might have me, I got you," he said, closing his hand quickly. "I was born with a straight flush in my hand."
