The Needs of Nitsche
Team 888Poker Pro Dominik Nitsche had a fairly disastrous High Roller tournament, but is still in the hunt for the London Live Main Event title. He told us about his time so far in England's capital.
"The High Roller couldn't have gone much worse. I'm hoping to run better in the Main." he said, but also confirmed that he's been having fun pranking his new Team 888Poker team-mate Natalie Hof.
"It's been great. I used to live in London, but I didn't like it as much as where I live now in Edinburgh. I have friends there and I love being there."
Nitsche spends a huge chunk of his time on the road, of course, but has no plans to slow down this year.
"I'll be going to Manila and Macau for some big tournaments, and then Prague."
Nitsche isn't focused on titles like winning a WPT or EPT as opposed to just winning tournaments. He clearly loves the action and a shot at glory and he's still going for that in the Main Event with 75 players left. With only 20 into Day 2 from yesterday's thrilling Day 1a, everyone has Andrea Volpi's overnight lead of 302,000 as a sighter.
