Lily Kiletto: the formation of a professional poker career

Lily Kiletto was born on December 28, 1986, and grew up in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. There were absolutely no prerequisites in her youth to think that in 5 years, she would become a professional poker player. No one in the family was fond of poker. Lily was studying for a degree in finance. Together with her college studies, Lily Kiletto combined work as a blackjack dealer in a casino. She worked in this position for two years until she soon found herself on the other side of the table. Trial poker sessions were held at casinos in Los Angeles and Las Vegas.

Lily Kiletto played the first Battle at the Beach No-Limit Texas Hold’em tournament in 2011. The starting buy-in for the game session was $550, and the earnings were $2,167. It was with this small but significant achievement for Lily that her professional poker career began. Lily gradually got involved in the gameplay. She liked to play at high stakes, where she managed to win from 5 to 10 thousand dollars.

However, as noted in the poker community, Lily Kiletto can not be called a major professional poker player. She is just an average poker player whose card game is not the main income. Poker for her is just a hobby that brings her pleasure.
