The ability of Maryland Live! To create a chokepoint, cutting off traffic from Baltimore and further north, shouldn’t be understated: I'm at Maryland Live cuz I couldn't be bothered to drive down to national harbor. I'm turning into a 2/5 grinder! — Andrew Brokos (@thinkingpoker) December 14, 2016.

About Andrew Brokos
Andrew Brokos is a professional poker player, writer, and coach.
In addition to offering private poker coaching, Andrew is currently the Host of the ThinkingPoker Podcast, a instructor with both RedChipPoker and Tournament Poker Edge, and writes regularly for Two Plus Two Magazine. He was previously a regular contributor to Card Player Magazine and a sponsored player as part of PokerStars Team Online.
Andrew has been playing poker professionally since 2005. He currently splits his playing time between live cash games and major live tournaments, with a few online tournaments series mixed in for good measure.
One of his most notable poker accomplishments is cashing five times in seven years at the World Series of Poker Main Event, including three finishes in the top 100. Other prominent finishes include victory in a $2000 2-day NLHE Full Tilt Online Poker Series (FTOPS) event and third in a $500 World Championship of Online Poker (WCOOP).
Andrew began his poker career as an online regular, grinding sit-and-gos (SNGs) and multi-table tournaments (MTTs) in the early 2000s. He eventually gravitated towards online cash games, as well as major live tournaments. For a little more background on Andrew, check out this essay he wrote for his Two Plus Two ‘carpal tunnel’ post that describes how he ended up becoming a poker pro.

In addition to being a poker pro and writer, Andrew is a non-profit leader. After working with the Chicago Urban Debate League and the National Association of Urban Debate Leagues (NAUDL) during college, Andrew founded the Boston Debate League in 2006 to bring competitive policy debate to Boston Public Schools students. Today the BDL is thriving, and operating with a budget Andrew could only dream of back when he founded the league on a shoestring budget fed by early poker wins! In 2015 while living in San Francisco, Andrew joined the Board of Directors of the Bay Area Urban Debate League.
Away from work pursuits, Andrew enjoys reading and writing fiction, playing games, and exploring the outdoors. Andrew grew up in the suburbs of Baltimore, Maryland and graduated from the University of Chicago with a degree in Philosophy.
