That is a great "job" to have but after the winnings he has achieved he deserves it.He has lots of videos on youtube and I think he plays as taknapotin on those but not sure if that is his stars alias.

You could look after every Team PokerStars Pro player within the software - it has a whole section dedicated to that and while they are online you could watch them playing cash games, sngs and touries or whatnot. They aren't that hard to find.
gOOD!
