After graduating from high school, Howard decided to put higher education on hold for a little while and moved to New York City to participate in some big-time chess. While participating in chess, he was introduced to a poker game taking place in the back of the room. Howard’s initial two years were rough as he played countless hours and lost most times. He made some extra money by being an assistant for the poker players. He believed he might boost his game by analyzing his life outside of poker. He made an effort to acquire more sleep and concentrate even more on poker.
