I wont quit my day job - I am a terrible singer!
Únor 24, 2009Ok, so me, Annette Obrestad, Arnaud Mattern and a group of others had our Sing Star challenge.
First of all, let me tell you - it was super rigged! They only had ABBA and Danish songs (and a few classics) - and you would have thought that Annette (being only 20) never heard these songs right? WRONG! She knew them all by heart and never missed a tone!
She beat everybody in the club and I actually think she broke the Danish-sing-star-record or something...
Thank God everybody forgot that it was suppose to be a high stakes sing star challenge, we probably saved our bankroll on that.
Anyways, we left the club with our mouths completly blue after some weird (but kinda tasty) drinks and headed for a VIP party. That party was as stacked as a party could ever be. Annette, Ilari, Eastgate, Lodden, Hougaard, Kongsgaard, (William) Thorson, (Thor) Hansen, (Nebuchad) Danielsson + + + +
The mood was good and we rounded off the evening with some Danish delicious sausages at the local Delhi (Denmark are famous for their sausages)...
Got up early next day and took a flight back home to Oslo where it's stiiiiill snowing

High Stakes Sing Star HU challenge
Únor 19, 2009The VIP lounge during the EPT Copenhagen was a great success!
We had a press conferanse announcing that one of our players, Peter "Zupp" Jepsen had signed with a new sponsor in a pretty cool way. He walked in the hotel lobby wearing a motorcycle outfit and helmet. The press was all there waiting and when he just stood there without removing his helmet, they got really curious about who this player could be(!) We took the press (and Peter) outside to a custom designed bus and only then he took of his helmet revealing himself.
Me and Annette (Obrestad) had some tough HU battles at the Wii console and I'm just really really glad I didn't play for money against her
The girl got skills at Wii also and obviously it's not in her (competitive) nature to give a poor guy a break! There was also some interesting semi-high stakes Ludo going on, but I'm not sure if the poker industry have anything to fear from that game
We also had the pleasure of meeting one of our unsung heros; Andrew Feldman.
He's a great young UK player which we have great plans for. We had a picture of him on the wall in the lounge, but Andrew was quick to let us know he wanted us to change the picture with a better one. I guess men are just as conserned as women
We got the impression that our guests had a good time and look forward to doing it again (!)
Tomorrow we are heading for a party where we have arranged some high stakes Sing Star matches...that should be interesting
Stay tuned . . .

Poker Icons Lounge preparation
Únor 14, 2009( High Stakes Sing Star challenge coming up )
We are having a Poker Icons VIP lounge for our players, partners and friends during the Pokerstars EPT Copenhagen, and the event hotel is killing us!
How can they justify charging $2400 just for serving coffee for 2 days??
I'm not even gonna mention what they are charging us for the rest (beverages, snacks etc etc)...
Anyway, so there is a billion things to take care of for the lounge - but thank god we got people who have done it before and know the drill (thanks Allan!).
Having a poker agency lounge is something new at the EPT (thanks to the EPT organizers for allowing it), and we hope the visitors will like it.
We are sending anything from 10 to 30+ players to each EPT event and want to take care of them the best way possible. After all, being a high paid poker pro is no picnic so we can at least ease the burden by doing this
No seriously, it's something we have are thrilled to do as it's a nice way of bringing together the agency, players, partners and friends...Looking forward to coming to "warm" Copenhagen and escaping the snow madness going on outside my door for a week.
Haven't snowed this much for 40 years they tell meBtw, Poker Icons is now on Facebook also
