i liked the last words most : "if you like something, you'll get good at it as long as you put in the time"- this sentence must be in front of most rigtards and new players computers. good luck to him at wsop, always nice to see big names at the tables- and knocking them out too...

I didn’t knew Blom had never went to WSOP. I thought every high stakes players would have that as a regular event in the year schedule. About online high stakes, one could think financial crisis could affect this action but, instead, it seems like it turned even better, just like the increase of sell of luxury cars. Crisis is just for some. And the two SCOOP victories just gives more strength to the principle of patience in the game. If he don’t keep his patience always at the same level, it would be impossible for him to reach the first place twice in a row. “. If you like something, you'll get good at it as long as you put in the time” – a sentence to keep in mind when playing.

He did play a WSOPE (World Series of Poker Europe) which depends from WSOP and finished 16th with a £33,285 earn. You can see it here:
He is a very good player, let's hope he can do well at WSOP main event
As most of you said, "If you like something, you'll get good at it as long as you put in the time". This must be sth to keep in mind always (both for Pro, begginers and medium-experienced players).
