Jimmy

Poker Instructor

Jimmy is from Monterey Park and speaks three languages. He attended Mt. San Antonio College before coming to San Diego's Mesa College, and he then became an editor. In 2007, he won a World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelet circuit event at Harrah's Rincon Casino. A well known poker pro asked him to join their team, but he decided to remain playing as a semi-pro. He trained as a Poker Dealer in 2004 by professionals at Sycuan Resort and Casino and later, furthered his education here at AIBCD. He became a most welcome addition to our team in 2008!
