Poker History
Torsten started playing Poker 2005 while he was serving German Army Service, starting with little Tournaments and S&ôs. After Army Service Torsten needed a little side income to have a side income and a nice University Time, that was when he got to know about PokerStrategy.com . With a starting capital of $50 from PokerStrategy he started playing more often and cleared various bonuses from different Online Sites with a short stack strategy. When he reached a $2k bankroll, he moved to shorthanded games and MTTôs.
By that time, he occasionally had some live sessions with friends or in the casinos. The first great big success came in 2009, where he won a 1k event in Enschede, since that time and the necessary bankroll for MTTôs he never had to worry about his bankroll, it worked out very well for Torsten. He added several top online results (2nd @ WCOOP event) and a major live Cash (2nd @ Grand Final in Madrid 2011) to his list of successes.
