Boyd was born in 1980 and grew up as a child prodigy. At the age of 12, Boyd attended college and graduated with a law degree at 18. After serving as an intern, Boyd decided not to pursue the law profession. You can also find here poker player profiles, tournament poker results, poker rules, poker strategy articles, poker books, poker magazines, poker tools and poker training resources. Boyd grew up mostly in Missouri with his mom and younger brother. Dutch and his brother were both very intelligent and had scored well on IQ tests. At age 11, Boyd skipped a couple of grades and started attending college at age 12. He graduated with his Associates degree at 13 and his Bachelor's degree soon after. Rounders because the character in the movie was in the same position he was in - a law student who wasn't sure that he wanted to be a lawyer. He started playing online poker in play money games and then graduated to real money games. He raised $50,000 from family and friends and opened the PokerSpot casino, which operated from 2000 to late 2001 but eventually failed. When PokerSpot ceased operations, the site did not refund $400,000 of player funds. Then there is also disagreement regarding a potential PokerSpot buyout where Boyd claims that the buyer reneged on an offer that would have returned all of the players' money. Dutch says that he would like to eventually pay back the lost money to the PokerSpot players to rectify the situation as well as fix his reputation but he understands that people are skeptical. When Boyd was the chip leader for a short time at the main event of the 2003 WSOP, he was asked if he would pay back the PokerSpot players with any prize money that he won. Boyd said, "If I win this tournament, I will pay off all the players. He went to Vegas for a meeting about a new web site. But the meeting didn't happen so he decided to stay in Vegas and ended up winning a seat to the main event through a satellite. But it’s something that happens outside of the poker table as well, where my thoughts are clear, where I seem to fully understand everything that’s going on around me, and I can come up with great ideas and ways to implement those ideas. PokerSpot. As a result, PokerSpot did not have all the player funds that were being used at their site. Eventually this resulted in PokerSpot being shorted 6 weeks of credit card deposits, which PokerSpot could not cover. I thin slice by consuming the thoughts, views and opinions of everyone else and then make an assumption. It’s one of the most damaging things about our society, but equally an important part of how we function in society. I learned to play poker from my Grandma Sue when I was about ten years old. She taught me and my little brother Bobby how to play five card draw one night when we went to visit. I really dug it. Anyway, there was this bar that you could go to in the game where you could try and make money playing blackjack and poker. I was making more dubloons playing poker than I was setting up trade routes. After making so much money, nobody in the bar would play you. It was a crazy cool game.I started getting serious about poker a few years later. I was in my second year at law school and me and two other law school buddies went to go see Rounders. That movie sucked me in so hard. It was the first time I'd ever heard of holdem. We went back to my place and played a little three-person freezeout for a dollar each. The next day I went to the library and checked out Thursday Night Poker by Peter Steiner and read the whole thing in one sitting. I started playing online for free at a site called 2 AM. You'd play for free and you'd have to click banners once you ran out of chips. I played every night after law school (and sometimes during the day if I decided poker was more important than class). I ran up my thousand up to a million about a dozen times that semester. They finally had to change the rule that you could only win the cash once because me and a few other players were so consistent. One thing that being on ESPN has done is shown me that the poker stars of the world are just people. We were all in Vegas, all pretty much broke, and all ready to make something happen. After we each had enough to stake ourselves, we stopped sharing bankrolls and winnings. I definitely feel like that period accelerated our learning curve pretty drastically. I recently moved to just outside of Fresno to work on it. We've got an office now and we're doing some development. I really think that a model like the one described on the RakeFree website is the future of online poker. The online poker sites are just taking too much money from the players. It really gets to me every time I look at my online bankroll at one of these sites. They take so much from us players, and we just let it happen because we don't have a choice. I felt like I was creating something that would be around a lot longer than I will be. Once you write a book it’s there forever. I’m not saying it’s going to stand the test of time but it’s still going to be there.I love poker but there’s so much I wish I could change. I wish we could take it out of casinos and make it like bowling or chess, rather than black jack or video poker. When you verbalize something or commit something to paper it makes you think about it. It made me think about where I would be if I didn’t play poker. I understand how effected people were. When Full Tilt went down I was hugely effected by it. I’ve been on both sides. I was also cheated by Absolute Poker.I understand why people were so angry with something failing and losing money.
