Early days

Borg7 started playing HUSNGs at the age of 16 when he was randomly selected for a staking + coaching deal. That's when he started playing the $5 games, moving up to the $100s within a short period of time. In doing so, he surrounded himself with alot of other HUSNG players at his stake in order to improve his game.

Playing self rolled

When Borg7 reached the $100s, he played self rolled for a short period of time, moving up to the $200s and taking $300 shots.

Borg7 spent about a month in Rosarito, Mexico at the end of the summer. He stayed in a condo with another Croixdawg stakee, imtheocean21. Two other roomates were also in the condo, including mbradycf. "The place we stayed at was awesome. It was a 20 floor condo and we were literally the only people there. We had a a private beach, three swimmng pools and six hot tubs," said Borg. He spent his time in Mexico meeting other poker players and enjoyed a month free of rain.
