The year of 2011 started off well for me with two good results at the PCA. Like most people, a good start gives you an optimistic feeling for the rest of the year and things are looking good when I look through my new poker glasses.

With two cashes at the PCA I really wanted to play EPT Deauville but I had to skip this great event because of the last tests of a project we are working on for a pretty long time now.

We are developing the websites that go with the projects we have worked on with the guys from Pokerharder.com and it’s fun to work hard on this. But now we are near the final release it get’s even more exciting because we can clearly see the progress and the beauty of these!

So, no more unfortunate beats. That’s behind us and now we can only look at the future.

I do my best to prepare myself as good as I can because I want to give more and I know that it’s payback time!

The last two years I had enough time to observe how it went wrong and why the new generation has taken over. I had to lick my wounds more than once after getting runner-runnered at very important stages. But now it’s time to do it different and be fearless like there is no tomorrow cause I like the new, and very clever way of playing by those young internet kids. At first, I stood the pressure but then I lost the power of good hands to catch up with them and when I finally found some good hands, they outplayed me more than once. I guess they can play very well & screen names of these new poker monsters are al something like IShallNotFold, ICallUDown, IDontGiveUp or ITakeUDown but it should not fool me anymore :-)

My plan for 2011 is to strike back so IWillPlayMyAGame and IWillTakeNoPrisoners? ;-)

Good luck and see you @ the tables!
