Team PokerStars Pro gets shaken up, and interviews with Mement_mori and jungleman12. It’s all in today’s PTP Hit and Run.
PokerStars pro shake up?: According to this story, Gavin Griffin and Hevad Khan might be out as pros for Team PokerStars. Peter Eastgate is also listed in the story, but since the former main event champ has said he’s retiring from poker for the time being, that’s not really news. In as a pro? Apparently, Dusty “Leatherass” Schmidt, according to this article.
A moment with mement_mori: Mickey “Mement_mori” Petersen is one of the best online MTT players in the world right now, and a CardRunners instructor. Card Player caught up with him for an interview, in which he talks about how he got going in online poker, and some advice for players just starting out.
Welcome to the jungle: Earlier this week we shared an interview with Tom “durrrr” Dwan. Pokerstatic.com completed a double play by getting the other half of the durrrr Challenge, jungleman12, aka Daniel Cates. Enjoy:
