Won a WSOP Main Event package but out on SPT

I won my first WSOP Main Event package for this year on Sunday. First try )) This is traditionally one of the most profitable parts of the year for me. I am not sure why but I run very well on satellite tournaments and the WSOP satellites usually have soft fields.
Of course because I [...]

WPT – Final Table, but only 9th

It took me several days to get over my disappointment of only coming 9th on this tournament, that is why I am only writing now.  It basically all depended on a coin flip which I took with all the risks involved and I lost. Had I won it, I would have been the chip leader [...]

WPT Bucharest – ITM

This is gonna be a very quick post. We are in the money on the WPT, 18 players left and I only have 25BB for another 15 mins then only 20BB. Not very good. But I was so card dead all day that it is a real miracle I am still in. For the first [...]

WPT Bucharest – through to day 2

Out, but happy

I played in a €1650 tournament in my home town, Budapest, Hungary. This was the first time ever that I felt proud after getting knocked out. I think it is partly thanks to the Poker Mindset book which emphasizes that if you did it right, the result doesn’t matter.
But previously it did matter and I [...]

Congrats Francesco!

Just a very quick post – I would like to say congrats to our Everest Live The Dream Team fellow member, Francesco De Vivo for coming 2nd in EPT Copenhagen!

NAPT Main Event – busted, but played well

I must say although I was out at the end of the first day, I think I played the best poker of my life. I feel that I am capable of winning a big tournament and that it will happen if the cards come just a little bit my way.
I like the structure on these [...]
