Lee Childs is a 35-year-old aspiring poker professional from suburban Washington, DC. He is married and has no children. Childs holds a BBA in computer information systems from James Madison University in Virginia. Just two months ago, he voluntarily took some time off from a high-tech position with a firm affiliated with the National Geographic Society. He worked on “The JASON Project,” which is an educational foundation for students dedicated to scientific expeditions and research, founded by the person who first located the Titantic. Childs had been on his own for a few months when he decided to pursue one of his dreams: play in the World Series of Poker. He did so in 2007 and ended up finishing seventh in the $10,000 buy-in main event. He won more than $705,000.
