Gone were the days that just playing tight made you a huge winner at NL100 Full Ring. However, the games had become a lot tougher. By the time Toby turned 7 last year, I felt he was independent enough for me to get back into poker. It was the safe choice, as my wife had (and has) a well-paying secure job at Leiden University. I wanted to be able to give him my full attention and not tilt away his milk money. I quit poker in 2009 to raise my newborn son, Toby. When did you join our team at BPC? And why did you choose to play ZOOM? Leiden is also only 10 minutes away from the beach. I live in a kind of suburb called “the district of lakes”, an area with a lot of green and blue nature. It’s a city with a lot of universities, so it’s always bristling with that student life energy. Where do you live and how is it to live there and what do you like a lot about it? So I deposited $100 on Ladbrokes and made a living playing poker for in the following eight years. I’ve been a gamer all my life (the crow and I even owned our own board game store) and loved the idea of making money at home playing a game. How did you get in touch with poker and what made you decide to start playing?Ī friend introduced me to online poker back in 2001 (huge shout out to DutchCrow!). He is learning a lot in the Coaching for Profits ZOOM program.
