\"\"Zejnikogoj from Slovenia is one of our latest winners of WPT Vienna package. This televised with buy-in \u20ac3,200+ \u20ac300 is just around the corner \u2013 kicks off March 25th. You can still qualify on PartyPoker tables<\/a>. Here is Zejnikogoj’s story:<\/p>\n

What route did you take to the final WPT Vienna satellite? <\/strong><\/p>\n

I played qualifiers. I started on qualifier for 40$. I think that was on Thursday before Sunday. It was the second Sunday that I played main qualifier. Before I bought in directly for 375$ so I am very happy to succeed in my second attempt.<\/p>\n

Tell me how the final WPT Vienna satellite went. What were the key moments? <\/strong><\/p>\n

I started very aggressive. From beginning I tried to win most pots. So, I doubled up pretty soon. Then when there were 30 players left, I lost some of my stack and I was on tilt, and moved some really aggressive all-ins in attempt of re-stealing. Everybody folded.<\/p>\n

It was hardest when we were only 5 players left. First 4 won package each. The other 4 players were all very good players. 3 of us had the same stack (20-30 bb). There were a lot of\u00a0all-in\u00a0pushes with 20 bb, but nobody called.<\/p>\n

Then I got [Jx][Jx] on the button. I open pushed\u00a0all-in (17bb), when big blind called me with [Ax][Kx]. Flop came [Ax][Qx][Jx]. I hit the set, I won this pot, and this guy was left with only 4bb, so he was out next hand. And I opened a beer!<\/p>\n

Tell me about your Party Poker story. How did you get started playing with us?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I started to play one year ago I think. I like to play tournaments, and my friend told me that Party Poker has good tournaments, and so I created an account. I like to play on Party, because of nice tournaments, specially Sundays.<\/p>\n

Tell me how you feel about your Vienna trip. <\/strong><\/p>\n

I am looking forward to go to Vienna. I played in Montesino casino last December, and I really like Montesino. Also Vienna I know, because it is only 4 hours drive from Ljubljana, Slovenia. I am excited thinking about the huge prizepool and to play good thinking poker.<\/p>\n

What do you think about WPT? <\/strong><\/p>\n

It will be first WPT for me. I don’t know really much about WPT series. But I know that it is respected, and big players come to play these events.<\/p>\n

Any poker players you would love to meet and play against at WPT Vienna?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I would love to play against Isildur<\/a> or Gus Hansen. Because I like their\u00a0aggressive style, I would try to learn something from them, or just enjoy watching them play.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
