Lamberto FloresLamberto "DocThatRocks" Flores AKA B.J. was born in Elizabeth, N.J. His ambition in life was to become a doctor some day. He realized that dream and became an OB/GYN. He always had a passion for gambling, doing well at blackjack but never a serious poker player. While watching the World Series of Poker in December of 2006, he became highly interested in learning more about the game. He started playing on NLOP in hopes of winning a seat to the WSOP in 2007. He made it to the weekly tournament with 500 players hoping to win a seat. His dreams were cut short when his internet connection failed for over 40 minutes leaving him shortstacked and eventually knocked out in the top 200 players. He began reading poker books and started playing online to further his knowledge and experience in the game of Texas Hold 'Em. Just before he entered his first major WPT Tournament in Biloxi, MS he was able to read the first two volumes by Dan Harrington. He was able to play in the WPT Gulf Coast Championship Tournament in September of 2007, but was knocked out in 66th place out of 250+ players. With his newfound experience, he immersed himself in more books learning about the different playing styles in poker. He read at least 5 more books on the different playing styles. As his knowledge expanded, his online success improved dramatically as well. He returned the following year in January of 2009 in the WPT Southern Poker Championship and finished in 16th place out of 283 players.
