Is he a full blown professional now?

I'm not sure what you mean by that. He has been a full blown professional for about 15 years meaning that his income is entirely derived from playing poker. He only plays about 8-10 tournaments a year though so he isn't playing every weekend. He is in the money probably in half of those tournaments so he is doing pretty well.

Oh I never knew that. Damn for 8-10 tourney's he has a pretty high percentage of making final tables.

my brother-in-law. if you're a poker fan, this might be one to catch on tv. harrington and David Pham are playing heads up and the final 18 action was pretty intense.
