		Marky_Crash needs no introduction to most NewsRoom readers, as the PlayerMod and Pokah regular (7135 posts and counting) is a regular at both the tables and the message boards, crushing his opponents and encouraging discussion in equal measures. It's his success at the tables, though, that's the focus here, as he's off to Valencia, Spain to take part in that leg of the Poker Race Trophy competition, hoping to land himself a seat in the $500,000 Guaranteed finals to be held in November in Austria. We caught up with him to get his thoughts about poker, his chances in Spain, and a host of other topics: How long have you been playing poker? Do you mainly play online or live poker? "I've been playing poker for just over 18 months now and play mostly online. I've only played a few times live so far at the local casino and at last year's WSOP but hope to start playing a lot more live poker soon. What stakes do you typically play? Cash games, tournaments, or SnGs (or a mixture of all three)? I play a large mix of stakes/games, mostly Omaha hi/lo cash games but also NL HE cash games and some sit n go games and recently a lot of O8 multi table tournaments. Stakes vary from .25 PL to $5 PL and $1/$2 to $5/$10 limit and $1 - $2 NL HE; for multi table tourneys I mostly play $20 and upwards. You won the SnG leaderboard for the Spain event by a wide, wide margin. Was there anything special about making the trip to Spain that motivated you or was it just the chance to crush the competition and make a semi-final? Do you plan on making a run at winning the seat to the Czech Republic race as well? I found it fairly easy to get motivated for the SnG leaderboard for the trip to Spain as 1st place was guaranteed a seat and I think this is a very good promotion PokerRoom is running with a very nice prize at the end of the road. I'm trying very hard to get my seat in Austria and obviously a trip to Valencia and the WTCC has to be good. The blog for Brazil made it all look very appealing. I'm planning to try just as hard for the Czech leaderboard and the others as I want as many chance as possible of getting a seat in the Austrian final and the games aren't too expensive at $1+$1 and there are a nice bunch of regulars who play them so they are usually fun games anyway. Have you played in any other major live tournaments such as WPT, EPT, or WSOP events? Any big cashes in those events or other ones, either online or offline? I played last year's WSOP OH8 event which I qualified for through PokerRoom. This was my first big event and although I didn't cash I was happy with my performance. It was a tough table I had with Johnny Chan and Marcel Luske and I was pretty card dead, however I got Chan's chips all in twice and had him drawing almost dead but both times he managed to sneak a split pot on the river. Then I made a move on Luske and had the best hand but he had amassed a tower of chips and could afford to call slightly behind to try and bust me which he did. What's a typical poker day like for you? Do you play full-time, only on weekends, or sneak home on lunch breaks from work to play? A typical poker day for me would be to wake up around midday, have some breakfast and several coffees and catch up on any happenings in the forum, check my emails, etc. Then a long stint at the tables with a movie on in the background. If I get off to a great start for the day then I will usually knock off early and go out for a meal or a few drinks; if not then I usually grind it out and play as long as needed. I know a lot of people advise a break from the tables if things aren't going great but I usually work rightly or wrongly in reverse to that and hate to leave a session down for the day and this seems to work for me personally. What other hobbies do you have outside of poker? Away from the poker tables I like a round of golf but haven't played anywhere near as much as I'd like to have recently as poker has took up a lot of my time; hopefully this summer I can fit a good few games in."
