I will use this thread to post my opinions and thoughts about everything before the game even starts.
Also, as a side-note for post game viewers, I am playing in the Pacific time zone.
First, I would like to start by posting my character's profile here for quick and easy reference.
First Name: Donald
Age: 34
Gender: M
Occupation: Owner of a Card Room
Biography: Write one or two paragraphs about your character. Include what makes him or her unique. Do they have any unique life experiences? Possible thoughts to write on: What kind of childhood did they have, what kind of person are they, what is their job and how do they feel about it, what attitude do they have, what is their family like, how did they do in school, do they have a unique appearance, ethnicity, sexual identity, disability, are they a people person?
Donald grew up under a single mother who was hardly ever there for him. Life was tough, he had to work hard to make it through life. He excelled in school, but played hooky frequently. In elementary and middle school, he made money selling homework and test answers to other students. His brilliance allowed him to have the answers prepared to sell, and the highest bidder got the highest score on his/her respective homework or test.
Donald dropped out of high school Sophomore year. Didn't feel he was going anywhere or gaining anything from it. He believed whatever he wanted could be his. He gambled for a living, but not at casinos. He was too smart for that. He organized his own gambling rings, and always tipped the scales in his favor. He played with loaded dice, learned to stack a deck of cards, all the tricks of the trade. Eventually, he acquired the money and desire to open his own card room. He hired a few guys at low wages to work for him. He pays them enough to keep them happy, but less than he should to pocket as much profit as he can.
As far as ethnicity, his mother is half latino half caucasian. He doesn't know what he is on his father's side. His mother passed away when he was 22, but hasn't been in touch, so is unaware of this. Donald is typically seen wearing a Fedora-style hat.
Also, I love this smiley:
