The Lock-In 114 - Felix Schneiders

This week, we are locked in with PokerStars Ambassador and EPT Paris runner-up Felix Schneiders. We discuss Felix’s long road from a $50 deposit and streaming in his parent’s basement to the bright lights of the EPT Paris Final Table. There are plenty of great insights as he analyses the streaming space and how happy accidents helped pave the way for him in the game. The attention then turns to the recent PokerGo studio domination of Brock Wilson who held off a challenge from his girlfriend Cherish Andrews to complete a rare back-to-back in PokerGo events. The recent ‘Mechanics of Poker’ podcast interview with Andy Wilson is used as a leading off point to talk about downswings as Dara weighs in on the lessons that Andy delivered eloquently in his 2-hour conversation. Felix also talks about his own tougher periods down the years. The episode ends with a preview of EPT Monte Carlo which features live-streamed coverage of a €100,000 One Drop Event and a €250,000 Super Highroller. The lads all pay tribute to Joe Stapleton who will be on the EPT mic for the final time at that festival. A huge thank you one again to our sponsors PokerStars and PaddyPower Poker, the latter of which is running satellites to the upcoming, not to be missed MONSTER EVENT in Dublin.
