Steve McAllister

Steve McAllister, who lives in Copperopolis, a former copper-mining town in northern California, owns SMCS, a software information and technology company, and also deals in real estate.

He's played home games since the late 80s, began playing hold'em a few years later, and now plays all games. He's been a "serious" player for 10 years.

Besides his win in $500 lowball here last year, he has numerous cash-outs in smaller tournaments, and estimates he has won over $150,000. His biggest cash-out was $25,000 in a hold'em event at the Peppermill in Reno.

McAllister says he likes Omaha hi-lo because more cards offer more action and more fun. "You can have bad cards and flop a straight, like I did tonight," he points out. He also notes that more cards make it harder for players to figure odds, something he feels he is better at than most other opponents.
