Wildric
I've never really been a big gambler, the odd fruity and roulette table here and there but my good friend is a different story.

I went to school with Ric (aka Wildric) and this guys ability to do maths was unbelievable, I remember him watching countdown at the age of 15 and wiping the floor with the contestants. Anyway he went to uni to do accountancy, maths, pure maths and further maths or some bollocks like that?! And this is where it all went wrong/right.

He found ladbrokes.com...

Within 2 years he'd won their yearly poker tournement worth 50k (i think it was that figure anyway) and has gone on to win plenty more. He now co owns/runs SharkPokerSchool.com and since leaving uni all those years ago if hasn't done what I would call a days hard work in his life.

Yes, I am jealous!

Impressive though that undoubtedly is,
the chap's soubriquet 'Wildric' is one of the most arse-clenchingly awful ones I've ever heard.

*EDIT* I think my problem is principally with the idea of 'Wild' 'Ric' - the accountancy and maths graduate. Keerrrraazzzy guy!!!!

That makes more sense...
In my head his name was Wil-dric (cf Baldrick).
