The Well - Michael Weisbrod aka Mrw8419
In our recent video interview you could get to know Michael a bit, but we are sure you still have many questions. We asked him whether he'd like a "The Well" forum topic, and he gladly said yes. So shoot your questions!
1. Who inspired you the most in terms of poker?
2. Person who you really would love to meet an talk?
3. What is you avarage income/hour?
4. What is your goal for the next few years?
Hey guys
1. Who inspired you the most in terms of poker?
Phil Galfond for sure. Everything he does on and off the table should be a role model for every poker player.
2. Person who you really would love to meet an talk?
If we are talking in terms of poker, it would either be Galfond or Sauce123. I think those two are def the sharpest in the games but for completely different reasons.
3. What is you avarage income/hour?
:cool: nice try IRS. It's enough to pay the bills
4. What is your goal for the next few years?
Keep travelling and moving up in stakes. Would like to make a splash at 25/50 by the end of next year in HUPLO. Need to take my game up to the next level by studying more and challenging myself more often.

Hey neomorf
Welcome ;)
Biggest losing/winning day/month?
Cash games biggest month is +28k usd, biggest losing -25k usd
biggest winning day cash game wise is 12k or so, and biggest losing -18k its funny how your biggest losing days are usually bigger than the winning days.
Thats excluding last months wcoop win which is def my biggest day/month
Favourite country/city, food/drink?
Its hard to pick an overall favorite, each place I go has a bunch of good and bad things about it. I'd love for the chance to live in Barcelona, but the online poker legal issues prevent that. This was probably the best summer of my life living in Budapest, spending a week at Balaton, and travelling through Croatia for 12 days. Really enjoying living here.
I really enjoy travelling/eating/drinking so each time I go to a new city eating the local foods and seeing how good there ethnic food is very important to me. I loved finding out how good the local and ethnic food is here in Budapest. If I had to pick a fav meal its steak for sure. Def a beer drinker as far as drinking goes.
Hey!
Have you been to other hungarian cities? Which ones? Which one was your favourite?
Why did you choose PLO for your main game?
Do you have any financial plan? I mean do you have investments or share in an enterprise? Or do you leave all of your extra money in your bankroll?
Do you really think that the public transport is good at Budapest? :D (You said that in the interview) I am not a big world traveller, I have only been to several european cities but i think the public transport here is awful compared to other countries.
Anyway its good to hear that you like Budapest, enjoy your time and good luck at the tables!
