Much of Patrick McMillan's young life was spent in a pool hall, playing and hustling billiards. It worked, as he never had to work in a cubicle but was always able to pay his bills. But it was not long after the turn of the century that fate would change his course. He went to one of the local St. Louis area casinos to visit one of his friends from the pool hall, and he began watching the guys playing poker. That same night, he sat down in the biggest game going and immediately felt at home there; he's been playing ever since. Patrick began playing once a week at the St. Louis casino and travel down to Tunica, Mississippi for ten days each month for the riverboat action there. It was there that he cashed in his first poker tournament in a $500 pot-limit Omaha event during the Jack Binion Mid-America Poker Classic series. His eleventh place finish had him hooked on tournament poker to supplement his cash game income. He and his wife even moved to Knoxville, Tennessee at one point to be closer to poker opportunities. After qualifying for a seat into the 2004 UltimateBet Poker Classic, one of the stops on the World Poker Tour, Patrick didn't know how greatly that would pay off. He took the trip and ended up at the WPT main event's final table, finishing in fourth place for a $170,000 payday. The following year, he cashed in 28th place at the WPT Jack Binion World Poker Open main event in Tunica, and he has accumulated numerous tournament cashes since then. While he continues to compete for that elusive win, he enjoys the poker life and won't be leaving the poker world in the foreseeable future.
