King's Resort CEO Says Poker Should Set Trends, Not Follow Them

Level 27 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Federico Brunato
Federico Brunato

When Federico Brunato looks across the live poker landscape, he doesn't spend much time worrying about what other operators are doing. In fact, he thinks that's one of the biggest mistakes they make.

The King's Resort CEO believes too many venues shape their schedules around competitors instead of building a long-term identity of their own. For Brunato, success comes from setting clear goals, sticking to a strategy, and creating ideas that others eventually want to copy.
