Right now I'm 24 years old. I was born in Uppsala in 1982. Most of my life I have been living in Motala before moving to Gothenburg to start my studies in 2001. Two years later I came in contact with poker as my neighbour Carl Boman fooled me into playing some 0.5/1kr NL cashgame in our kitchen. I lost a bunch the first time.

Then it all started with $5 sngs at Multipoker. Moving up slowly in level to reach the medium high cash games. Then my life took a big jump when I qualified for the EPT Deauville early this year. What was first meant to be a fun trip and hopefully bring back some money ended up making me a millionare.

After this I have been keeping playing a lot live with good results as you can see on my result page. I have also had the time of my life travelling all around the world meeting lots of wonderful people.

My plan for the future is to keep living this 'hard life to make an easy living' and win as much as possible.

This fall I will play the EPTs and some other live tournaments. My goal is to be the first ever to win two EPT main events.
