Poker News: After everything I’ve noticed, would not it be better if you had a secretary who are concerned about logistical problems such as flights umbuchen care?

Anthony: Yes, definitely. I already have a Finnish lawyer, I helped in some matters. In the States I had a former agent who confessed to me was, but we do not work more. I now have an assistant for holdem poker employed, me with my blog and in my new updated website will help, we soon on the Internet. My fiancee helps me a lot, but after it was not to Monte Carlo has come, I probably such things ourselves. Life is not easy, haha.

I see that you take many vitamins. Is it the mark of a true athlete?

Anthony: Well, earlier times, yes. I have tennis at a very high level of play and was about to enter into professional life. Unfortunately, I injured myself and I could no longer recover.

Bedauerst you know?

No, surely it is better to play professional poker, as a tennis professional. It deserves more money and even though I’m now much, but I know that tennis professionals much more travel. They have a really anstrengendes life. I think as a holdem poker player, I can not complain.

You mentioned your fiancee. One hears expected quite soon a child?

Yes, there will be a girl. It will be on 20 May at the world. In less than 2 months, I will father.

What impact will the birth of your life as a holdem poker player?

It will certainly change much. I think I will be more quiet. In my life is currently below and forget it. Maybe my daughter is my adrenaline a little slow.

Is it positive or negative?

I think it is a good thing. I will not for some time away, but then I will simply my fiancee and my daughter to bring the Games. I’m just so happy because I have a child. It will also further strengthen my relationship.

I own a three-year daughter and I can tell you, you’ll learn to be patient, no matter who you are.

I know there is something strange. We now have two Bulldoggewelpen. You know but how it is with puppies, right? It can be the first few weeks not one second out of sight. I’m irritable and easily than I do bad mood one morning in a pile, since I am almost mad. But I guess that’s life is. We will engage a nanny at our hand, because I have so little time. Mostly I play after breakfast 90 minutes tennis, followed by two hours in the gym. After I had consulted a chiropractor is the day already half over. Later I play the High Stakes in Bellagio and during all this time I am not at home. I does not know when I will find the time, but I must find it.

You are drawn to Vegas. What is there for you?

Vegas is good to me. I do not know, it looks as if everything works in Vegas. When I travel abroad, however, it is often bad for online holdem poker and I lose a lot of money. Just last night I lost $ 400,000 and so am quite dissatisfied. In Vegas, I have this problem. If I verreise I often can not train, I also sleep and eat poorly. Even here, it is difficult to eat something, if I hunger. First you have to order, then it takes one hour until the food is delivered, just such things. It is simply much easier in Vegas. A bit ironic is that I almost in a rural part of Vegas live far from the bustle of the city. There are many older people, the streets are clean and the mountains are near. Very peaceful since.

If I am not wohlfühle and can not train regularly, I would prefer to return to Vegas. In Paris or London, it is hard. Monte Carlo is one of the most beautiful places, but I eat the wrong food and not train as much as I should. It would be nice if my personal Vegas from here would be over my shoulder to see.

In Vegas you play the highest limits. Do you have, let’s say four years ago, even what the Big Game?

No not at all. Even as my bankroll $ 30,000 aufwies, I had absolutely unaware that holdem poker on television, or even a WSOP existed. I probably have about two years by the High Stakes rounds. But it was also very fast for me. I had neither a limit off, nor have I ever lost an amount of restricted me in the game. I was always up, step by step, until I reached the highest limits, which it exists. I never had a major downswing, which has forced me to play the game a little slower approach.

When I of the High Stakes rounds had heard I said that I should still win two million U.S. dollars before I started there. Nevertheless, I knew that I would be better than many of these players. Now I can in all 15 variants of each other. However, I prefer to have no game the other.

Gewinnst you in the High Stakes?

Yes, I was some time ago times 2 million in Plus, I now have roughly in balance. Actually, I would have to lose at the beginning because I found some of the variations do not know. I have yet to this part and probably lucky. Now, it is only a matter of time until I times in one day one or two million U.S. dollars in the Big Game win.

There are many rumors about the High Stakes and each has their own opinion. I am often asked why I fell in love with these limits with so many good players wage. However, no game would come only if Phil Ivey, Barry Greenstein, David Benyamine, Chip Reese and I would take part. There is always someone who loses money to us. On the other hand, there are players who have won quite a lot, although they do not have the necessary skills.

Verrätst you their names?

Sure, but you are not allowed to print haha

Yes, this is quite a lot, haha. Until now, I am very well beaten. There was a time about four months in which I fixed limit in 1000-2000 and No Limit 300-600 only three or four days had lost. Certainly one of Gewinnsträhne such a tremendous amount of luck, but I think I have not played badly. In recent years, I have not so much in my game worked. Previously, I have done so much to me. Even as I was not sitting at the table, I
Everest holdem poker
Hands, opponents and situations analyzed. Recently, I play solid poker, but not more. I must still learn a lot, but I can not complain. I think we must consider the overall situation. I master all 15 variants and I am also happy. Most players have weaknesses in some variants. The only variant, in which I have never begun bin is 2-7 Razz, but it is also the latest game that we have. And maybe High / Low Regular, which I do not particularly like, but it is already.

Some people think you are the best. How do you see yourself?

Well, probably it’s good for me, if I think I’m the best because it is my confidence in the game increases. However, it is not good if one believes, the best and then loses against the best.

But you do not have this problem, right?

Not really. But if you all variants, it could still players who are better than me. However, I do not know in which variant the most money I earned. No Limit, Fixed Limit, Pot Limit Omaha, I really do not. Maybe I am, therefore, the number 1 David Benyamine is really good, but I have it already in the High Stakes beaten.

Yes, I know. There are websites, each high-Stakesspiel on the web. Therefore, I do exactly how much you’ve lost yesterday. Is not that amazing?

Yes, this is funny. I do not know whether the sides pursue us 24 hours, but probably. Because of the tax, I am not sure whether the right is me, haha

There were a lot Gambling in Monaco. Chinese poker, Coin flipping and other crazy games. Interessierst you are?

Well, I very much like gamble. Or shall we say it this way: I have noticed that the best players like to bet. If the Gamblen may also improve your game. It is also good with other players to bet, because it then you at the table more action. But I am still cautious. Even if you’re the best you can fairly quickly a 5-million-Pechsträhne. I have one million in less than 10 hours lost. In a session with Sammy Farha, I am the one million plus one million in the red abgerutscht. It is only to risk minimization.

Wettest you to golf or other sports?

I have at the Australian Open and the World Cup large sums of money. When I won tennis and the World Cup lost, haha. Actually, I have no time to bet on sports, or to play golf.

Chinese holdem poker is currently quite announced. Phil Hellmuth said that he yesterday against Ivey has lost $ 500,000.

Yes, I was there. I was ahead $ 100,000, had at the end but lost $ 30,000. The bottom line is the big bets certainly affect your game.

You’ve probably this question most frequently asked: How much is your bankroll?

There are two things that I can not tell. Very private property and my bank roll. Not even my fiancee knows exactly how much money I have. As you can see, it is with good. And it must also, if one plays the highest limit. It is no secret that I am not currently bankrupt. Regularly I count my money. When I but a few months ago but moved balance, there was a difference of two million. I thought it would be a different sum. Now I do not know how much my bankroll, or how much I’m worth, haha.

Is it possible that you ever verspielst your money?

Sure, but I probably would have to be crazy to go bankrupt. I will never go into a situation in which I for my entire bankroll games. When my bankroll is one million U.S. dollars, I would only participate in a game in which I lose a maximum of $ 70,000.

At the moment it would be possible, the entire bankroll to lose, because I’ve invested a lot. This money, I can not just take out. I owe neither players nor banks money and my house is abbezahlt. There is nothing worse than other people owe money.

Where do you see yourself in ten years? Still the best?

I doubt it. I would almost guarantee that in ten years I no longer am the best. It is so many good players in the future. I already see so many talented players, but they all seem to have a problem. Within an hour, I playfully clearly inferior. They celebrate the long term, but stupid mistakes or risking too much. It seems as if they were their game level is not maintained.

I am part of a new generation which has an athletic background. One must be in good physical condition, his best game to recall.
It seems as if at the moment I am far ahead of other, especially because I play all variants. Thus, I have a lot of variance, if I only play a special variant.

What about the jet-set life? Probably your life was not always so glamorous.

I currently lead a good life, but I am also always been happy and active, never have I felt miserable. Since I was fifteen, I always targets for the next one to two years. Last year I stopped for the first time in the future. Everything came pretty quickly and I thought it would take a much longer process. This development had I but never as a target. But there are things that I said in my private life wishes. My physical condition is very important to me and I work very hard to even better shape. I know every day what I need if I am aufstehe.

Wärst dear happy and poor, or unhappy and winner at the WSOP?

Money is not everything. It is easy to say money because a high value, if you do not. At fifteen I have with my friends $ 20 on horse races. The most fun I had with our friends and it was not important whether I lost or won. Happiness means to be able to do what you want. I have learned a lot, the
I did not like. I worked in a factory, as waiters, salespeople, furniture packer, delivery boy, I have completed my military service, I worked as a tennis coach, model, such things are. I know that it is not easy to earn money.

Would you prefer to ten million in cash Game, or a $ 500,000 bracelet in the WSOP?

At the moment, I would certainly prefer the money, haha. In tournaments is less about money, but more a question with another measure. In recent years, all players in the High Stakes less success in the tournaments because they do not get their best game. As is so little money, I would nevertheless like to win a few tournaments. I see myself as a specialist in cash games. On the other hand, yesterday I had a bet with Phil Ivey: everyone sets win of the other top again. If I have half a million in one tournament win, Phil Ivey owes me $ 500,000. I still believe that I can win tournaments, but I play it only rarely. People like Mizrachi Men The Master or play any tournaments and then win the title of player of the year. Certainly I would also achieve good results if I would play all tournaments. I have last year but only in about eight tournaments participated.

I think your helicopter is waiting.

Sure, you’re right. Ok, but now I must pack. Thank you

Approx. 75% of the dealer with the “Poker Royale” have been scrupulously by Mr Zangerl intra-trained. Trials there were already with the “Poker Tour 07″ in the Gasometer or the pre-opening tournaments, since 24 April in the “Poker Royale” have already taken place.

At the opening, mainly players from the Concord Card Casino “and introduced himself one wants to see what’s new. But even a few Wiener Neustadt dared to exercise a table games. From 17 clock started the cash-game tables, was played in This evening everything – Hold’em, Stud and Omaha. Gastronomy was difficult to do, waiting times had to be taken. It will certainly still need a few weeks until the team in the truest sense of the word recorded.

We wanted to know more but behind the scenes look, so we stood Floorman Christian Gorz speech and answer:

Now in the opening phase, the utilization is very good, but how realistic they appreciate the possibilities for the future, such a large casino permanent record?

The team believes in the success, otherwise would have none of us to them. We are from the concept of “Poker Royale” Casinos convinced.

What actions or events are planned in order to achieve the necessary capacity?

We offer daily tournaments, including fixed events are planned. The tournament schedule for the next two weeks and is already our tournament manager Gerald Riener is already in preparation for the next few weeks, he has international experience, was already in Monte Carlo and San Remo, the best contacts. We also want to international tournaments with big points. Of course, we also advertise our Card Casino and the local situation is in a good catchment area. On 6 May is already a big tournament. With a buy-in of € 50, – and an entry fee of € 8, -, we guarantee € 40,000, – guaranteed prize money, regardless of the number of participants.

How many cards they have-dealers currently in the team?

Currently we have 75 dealers in the team, but the changes. On the whole, we are 120 employees.

Who did this huge project financed, who is behind the team of “Poker Royale”?

The Austrian Helmut Strohmaier has a private investor in this project believed, although he comes from the business and still nothing with the holdem poker business to do. He is the financier of “Poker Royale”. Intra he mixes but not a Haindl Kurt is our leader and we, his team, jointly organise the operation and conduct.

Why experienced holdem poker in the past years such a hype? How can “Poker Royale” benefit?

In many television holdem poker is transferred permanently or for tournaments Stefan Raab, comes through this boom and we can thus benefit. And this trend will certainly be even greater.

In an interview Haindl Kurt says that he especially the youth want. How responsibly with guests, they go to for a controlled approach to the game?

We plan and make a holdem poker school, where everyone can participate. And of course look that beginners are not equal to high-limit tables play, but on small tables with low limits – in cents range – begin. For the entertainment value is not the money is central.

What distinguishes “Poker Royale” Card of existing casinos, because they are always happy in a shady corner under pressure, even if it does not necessarily entitled, but in fact that often the social terms.

Through our appearance we lift off even by the clothing or room decisions. The operation will run smoothly without disputes and the structure clear and transparent.

Do they have safety measures to protect players?

Certainly, we will protect players and computer recording can also decide whether or not one accepts other players. No record in detail, but at least the traffic will be covered in order to be able to respond.

According to an article in the “courier”, the police nor the legal situation in terms of Section 168 Penal Code – also on illegal gambling. Although the licence for the casino card reads: “allowed card games without a banker, where the game is not only success and predominantly depending on chance. ” Faith it is the only one negative marketing Neidern? And ultimately a positive effect, because of “Poker Royale” speaks?

True, even negative publicity is good publicity, people are talking God. For over ten years, legally negotiated. holdem poker is not gambling if it would be a television would not make so many transfers and other establishments in Vienna were already closed. Our business is here in a track hineingedrängt who do not understand.
Peter Zanoni, Chairman of the EPSA, is the pioneer of Card casinos in Austria and he litigated for years. I think he is fully within your rights. holdem poker is NOT gambling. The negative image, which we allocate, in terms of gambling, purely from the monopoly position of Casinos Austria – we do not want.

Women are still a minority in poker, where it is often accompanied only as a player, but not at the table. Are there ideas from their side as well as women for this sport can be excited?

We have already considered Ladies tournaments and plan already concrete. Also in the foreseeable future, there will be a Ladies Challenge-type, probably Sunday-afternoon.

The plans of the “Poker Royale” sound teams in any case very motivated and optimistic. A visit is the “Poker Royale” is certainly worth, even if on the opening day of the organization is not so wrong about. But this is forgivable. Despite the size of the atmosphere is friendly and the staff tried. Where there’s a will, there is also a way…

* Omaha

In this variant poker, each player gets not two but four cards face! To win, you need to have the best combination of 2 covert and three open cards. Because each player 2 cards instead of 4, the High sheets are generally stronger in Omaha.

* Stud to 7 tickets

In contrast to Omaha and holdem include the open-visible from any cards, a player during a round receives lying in front of him. Each player gets three cards first (2 covert and 1 open). After the first bidding round, a fourth card face up and even during the game to each player. The next two rounds of bidding allows each player 2 new cards. In open the fourth and last bid round each player gets one last hidden card. If you until the last round of bidding followed, so you get three and four open hidden cards in Stud to 7 cards. To win, you must create the best combination of 5 by 7 cards that are available to you.
