Yes, it has really done. The last 5 months I was at GIGA, especially in the Poker Night and was employed there drafting work, and the moderation of the TV show take over. Previously, I have almost 2 years almost exclusively on poker and have lived of course in my free online game on my work.

Betsson What is now on they send? What will be their professional future? In what direction do they want?
With Betsson at my side is a dream come true and I would of course all enjoy. There are many people and communities, such as Poker Mania, which from the beginning stood behind me and have helped. Which of course I now want to meet. What my professional desires beyond concerned, I leave everything open to me initially. I have a very solid and can be trained to fall back, but generally, I would naturally like in the big, colorful poker world will remain and who knows, maybe yes, I write in a year for poker news?
When did it with the poker games started, and how was it?
A good friend took me to the game. He knows me very well and said "I have the perfect game for you found." Then followed lesson on lesson, because every day I discover more. Tactics, position play, the mathematical component, etc. When I started a few weeks after the players to read, there was no stopping anymore. I like to compare this feeling with my second favorite hobby, windsurfing. There's a moment in which the entire training, the blue spots and failed to pay off. The Finn, stands out from the water and you glide at full speed then. It is as if you grew wings.
What was your first thought in their first game?
Oh, that's probably the same with every thought and Stefan Raab very vividly: "When I'm on it? What should I do? And how much should I put the aces; D "
They play mostly online?
The PC is usually closer and easier to achieve than a casino, so I play mostly online. The crucial advantage of the virtual table, are the diverse and extensive experience, combined with little time. Experiment eight times at the casino tables at once to play? It has also made much easier in the anonymity of the Internet – especially at the beginning.
What makes them the mixture of live and computer game? Where are there differences?
Where it is beautiful? On the computer or live? I think this question can best be compared to answer. We ask Jimi Hendrix "Are you, or prefer to live in the studio" The answer certainly similar. Online or in the studio provides the necessary power, extended its own style, collecting experiences and tried here and there from what. The acid test comes Live at the table – the poker player's stage. If it tough enough to be worked, ie the self-confidence and bring fun to the case, then you can rock the stage and enjoy the whole event.
"Hayami" is her nick name – why?
Hayami character is a character from the manga comic, Blue Submarine No.. 6 '. Hayami, also an ER, is a bit difficult, but very candidly and sees the world through different eyes. I was reading eight years ago so impressed by this character that I've taken over the name. Today I hear on Hayami, as well as to Meike.
What is this Nick?
It means setting sun ', I only learned much later.
Before I came to poker, I have many first-person shooter played. Since then the name fits very well accidentally.
They are known for the world record in the "duration-poker" – before not too long time with the club "Hot River" a second time on How to get this idea?
I am very happy to test my limits, physically as mentally. There is a world record in continuous poker ideal. I also wanted the title does not diminish in the same year that in which I had him up. The first record was so in the spring of 2008. The 100 hours in me, however, cracked. Now I just count on quality, not quantity.
How can the organization at a time poker tournament imagine how does it work?
It takes a lot of motivated assistants. You can not simply stand up, walk to the kiosk and get the coveted hot coffee to buy. This would be the record for thee gone. In Hinterglemm stood us well for a dozen helpers page. Even after 4 days they still had a smile on his lips, massaging us, brought us food / drinks at the table, or heiterten us with funny stories and jokes on. Then there was the time account. Each player could in one hour, 5 minutes work. Every minute, saved by the helpers put on paper and if you ever had to get up, was immediately called a number. For example: "You have 15 minutes!" After 40 hours without sleep, will you not even have to calculate 1 +2. These are the true heroes of each world.
What's in the coming period in relation to poker planned?
What I currently am most pleased is the Betsson Estoril LIVE poker event on 12-16 February in Portugal. Among other things, because the casino from the James Bond film "Casino Royale" is. Currently running qualifying tournaments in January and that we are planning a live finale, where the qualifiers with or applies to be against me. It is therefore an exciting time.
