We will heard a lot about this kid. Just hope he doesn’t finish himself “tired” after just a couple of years, like others. It is not easy to pass from the fun time passed playing poker, even if already winning nice commissions, to start doing it professionally, and the sooner one starts, the sooner he might get depressed with it. But he sure has lots of time in front of him for everything.

oh i believe i smell a rich fish over here...considering that blom lost what 4-5 mil in one night- this youngter can spend his 30 millions in a week or so- someone should seriously look after him for his own good or he can end up being poorer that before the "money from the sky"...see what tv/internet does to kids?

lol, many of us are talented, but its though to make a single $ nowadays, especially online. But with that wealth he probably played high stakes from the begining, so $375,000 is not so big achievement.

spoilt rich kid - probably
talent - perhaps
will he blow his inheritance? it's definitly likely lol
i think it's bad for anyone to start playing high stakes straight away, i'll guarantee he never worked his way through the limits. but if he's good enough not to have lost a lot then best of luck to him.

Comparing him to Viktor Blom isn't a good comparison according to me. This kid haven't played his way into the big games, he was given the money to do it. My guess is that he doesn't have the experience to keep his winnings up in the long run.
