Theres no doubt that Fedor is one of the greats in a tournament poker setting. Im wondering what aspect of Fedors gameplay makes him so great?

Fedor Holz is only 22 years old and I heard that after earning more than U$10 Million on live tournaments only this year (and another fortune in the online MTTs too) would be considering to retire from Poker Tournaments...

Maybe it can be only a temporary "slowdown" and reducing the huge number of MTTs played online at PS and also selecting even more the Live Tournaments in order to have more free time to enjoy the considerable money already earned and also living with less pressure but...

This just proves that, in small tournaments like 50-100 people, where everyone the same almost plays every tournament. Luck is not the factor, skill is. Big tourneys does he do well? No.

So gentlemen, if you think you have skill, don't bother playing the mega tourneys. Just play in your local weekly $300 100-man tournaments.

Have really taken to this guy as of late. Felt his interview post the one drop win was very modest and he also seems very aspirational in wanting to help others. Good luck to the lad

if i can tell u exactly what he is doing right, i would be a millionaire right now.

so i say, attend his course, he will teach you.

but if u want an answer from me, i say that he knows his opponents very well. the group is so small. he knows them very very very well.

if i make you play the same group every month, if u a moderately better than them all, u will crush after a year.

I think he's proven himself much more than you suggest here. No.1 player 2014 / 2015 online now worldwide no1 2016. I think he has just dedicated his life to the game aince taking it up as anyone with reasonable success finds themself doing.

He has already proved that he is one of the leading players. Whether he will go down in poker history? Let's wait a little time.

he is very good

I watched praticamento all wsop 2016 he was the winner , several Acompahei played and it really is one of the great poker players and with only 22 years. Also I heard that he would retire , however I believe that this is impossible, for who dreams to win a tournament and won ever will always keep playing , guess who already won a wspo rs

in my opinion the most important quality of Itacare is a cool head and the correct calculation

I dont know if I'm right, but having observed his last FT, I think that although it is talented, is having a streak of impressive positive variance that certainly makes up some mistakes in his game, the way it connects flush with 52s vs Ike Haxton in the super highroller 102K to break top set, Lmao !!!.

It's a great player, but personally prefer other regulars of ept as WizoWizo or Negriin.

In an interview he said that a lot of work on his game that would become strong player is 1st, 2nd - and his win 1,3kk online tournament which enabled big BR and now he plays and win tournaments for the most part with a small field, and the third - this is luck :)
