Kasey Phillip Baughan was born April 18, 1987 to Marcia Petterborg and Joseph Thomas Baughan in Greensboro, North Carolina. His mother refers to the laboring process of Kasey's 9.12 lbs birth as "hell", but she was inspired by Kasey's father's quoting from Thomas Paine's "The Crisis". "Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph." This statement has been proven true with the birth of Kasey Baughan, as his legacy and prestige grows without restraint in the modern world.

The K-Vegas Investment In the summer of 2005, Baughan had tired from the usual summer break grind of a part-time job and was looking for ways to invest his new found capital. At the time Baughan was deeply involved in an underground poker circuit known to members as the KSOP (Kernersville Series of Poker). Baughan took notice of the talent that was around him, and decided to microinvest into these players' skill. June 26, 2005, Baughan wrote a check to Ultimate Bet for $25USD to be deposited onto the online poker website.

Results were immediate. The first sit and go tournament ended in a second place finish with profits of 9$USD (36% ROI). The second game followed as the first. This time though, Baughan's ambition for "nothin' less than frikkin first" got the better of him after again placing in second and caused him to punch the laptop monitor and cracking it, rendering the laptop useless. This minor setback put Baughan at an overall loss of $311 (-1244% ROI). But the future gains made would not only put Baughan's investment back in the black, it would put Baughan himself on the cover of Forbe's magazine for the top investment of the new decade.

Baughan's personal success from the online poker undertaking began to draw attention from his cronies in the KSOP. Baughan began to make microcredit loans for amounts as little as $10USD.
