Poker players remember their first big poker milestone — the first time they played online to kick of their career, the first time they won a tournament, the first time they lost a $5,000 pot. In our new series, My First, we catch up with various poker pros and personalities to get the story on a significant "poker" first in their lives. One goal that every serious tournament player has in their sights is winning a World Series of Poker bracelet. In this edition of My First, we talk to Tristan Wade about accomplishing that goal.

More of these articles especially about the unsung poker serfs out there as opposed to poker pros that get hit by lightning (although those are good too ...)
