From here:

Quote:

He began playing poker in low-stakes heads-up games online at age 18 on PokerStars. Soon thereafter, he was logging in long hours on multiple tables. In just a couple of years, Minieri accumulated enough Frequent Player Points to buy a Porsche.

Personally I thought he got his money after a wizard showed up with several dwarves, and asked him to burgle something from a dragon.

"low-stakes" was probably $50/$100 games.

^ this.

Low stakes is always a relative term

That said, whatever level he started at the methodology was the same: he just ground out lots of hours, in a winning fashion.

...and a Porsche that you don't even have a licence to drive.

Most bawler thing ever, IMO

He got staked by his class mate, Harry Poter. Suspect it may have something to do with his luck also.
