Share

Original Huesca, based in Tarragona, young, brave, feisty, steadfast, transgressive, these are some of the adjectives with which this player it can be defined. But above everything in your life is a constant, apart from their great game, this is “breaking new ground.”

There is a long time, and unfortunately some are bent on keeping the poker player stereotype of beautiful and sexy before poker player really. And even as a publicity for some newbies or people outside this world, could strain for a while, but eventually those claims are no longer valid, and eventually emerge the results of good players and bad.

Not that we will go to the opposite pole, which is not so, but as always in this life is a universe of gray in the monochrome (or polychrome depending how you look) there are many players who compete, fight and win as the best poker players in the world and that many times for not being girls have no impact 90-60-90 due.

We’re going to go ahead is Paula Annette Obrestad, and I apologize for the Norwegians, but the product has always been better Iberian like cooking, is not the same our acorn ham chop of Saxony or our anchovies Santoña meet the kippers.

We, in short, if not go into another debate …. And is not the site or place and far from my intention. So, if you like our readers, give way to this interesting interview with this girl, that could happen to our side and so … we do not realize it could also plucked on a table and there they would realize that we and our portfolio more!

Hello Paula, how are you? You look tired I see … Is it by staying up all night playing Adventure or the “Beijing Express” you’ve lived a little?
As a bit of everything … the experience in Beijing Express was tough and lately I’ve traveled a lot because of some poker tournaments …

Who comes up with pitcher soul! Do not you had enough with the fierce struggle of the tables?
Well, this was a fight a little different … also went there with the most important person in my life is my mother, that was his dream and we were lucky enough to live together.

It seems that the sacrifice is very attached to your person, right? Have you ever been so in the world of poker?
I think everyone makes sacrifices in your life at certain times and / or circumstances. That’s why the coins have 2 sides … On the subject of poker I guess like everyone, sometimes leave a little parked touches other aspects to focus on the game, but I’m keeping my friends, going out for drinks, shopping, partying … the life you lead any person of my age. Although it is true that when a tournament is postponed it all … the good thing is that I can say that in the poker world and I have friends not just acquaintances.

With the athlete who you are and your qualifications, why not poker and other activity?
Plain and simple curiosity … I saw him on TV once and it caught my attention. I started searching and Internet documents, videos … I caught the bug.

From time to start playing today, how have you seen evolve your game and even where you think you could get?
Since starting the truth is that if there has been evolution. However, rapid evolution is the beginning and slow later. When you start from 0 and acquiring concepts and take contact with the game, you see that you are evolving quickly, but there comes a point where it costs a lot more evolved. In poker there is always something new to learn, ways to improve, optimize sequences, variants that apply to maximize … stagnate and no good thinking “and it thus.”

Any story worthy of note at your beginnings? And have now?
In the first tournaments I played, to sit at the table a man she snapped: And you who come from? Who pays you to the tournament? At that time I offended a lot, but well, everything in the world … Well recently I made my first royal flush in vivo, which is not very anecdotal, but I always look forward! :

Thank anyone who supported at this time as a poker player?
Especially the family, who are always are when you need it most. And people like Dani Gómez “Garnerus” Raul Horta “Rayu” Javier Piazuelo “Pizu” always been there not just poker players, but as friends.
Well, Reuben, who’s who “avocados” day to day, both upstream and downs graphic …. And of course Poker Mambo for trusting me and giving me the opportunity: Brais thanks!

Going into flour, what do you think the stereotype that the public has great poker players (addicts, gamblers, ruined, etc. ..)?
I think it’s fine, but the mind must start being more realistic, we are no longer in the west … Those who carry the flag ignorance are those who do not realize that we are not sick, not sick that the gambler for a given game, but by his own personality and / or trend that can be ruined even the owner of a factory Bibles (with all due respect) and that there are vicious everywhere.

What about the role of women in this world?
I have never expected them to treat me differently for being a woman, when I sit at a table, I am with players, regardless of race, sex, age … So good, the role of women.

How did a girl as young as you the first time you went to a big tournament, surrounded by men at the table? Or at the least attempt to steal your blind made a reraise all-in? In order to be reassuring
The truth is that the first time is overwhelming. Not because they are men, but because your “debut” in a tournament buy-in higher than you normally play, the level of players was higher … But hey, I do not scare easily, so it is relatively easy not give me a hand to blow bet …

What advice would you give to all those girls today start playing poker and perhaps check back are all guys in this game?
This is good! Nothing, except that the kids do not bite. And do not give them more initial stack be kids, so nothing to fear. More and more women around the tables and no time has happened.

What future goals in the short term you get? And in the long run?
In the short term to keep learning, trying to increase profit bbs at the level that might be able to play and level up. In the long run … but the truth is not what I’m going to eat tomorrow … so we’ll be watching. I think it’s important to go to meet goals that created an expectation tiny too big and then be unable to comply.

Your partner also plays poker, are you or are you usually peel usually pious?
When the tables do not agree we’re a couple, their chips are worth the same as those of others. It would be fair to other players respetásemos us, plus it is prohibited. We have a long history of mutually busts, most recently in pre-final table Castellopn Deep Stack … got mad a little, but then it passed.

Any variance request to the goddess? That here we plug
What’s mine for me and what not, Split pot!

Cash, MTTs and Sit & Go? Why your choice?
Online cash game practically, that’s where the benefits (now every day it gets more complicated). MTTS live and that the truth is that I love. It’s different playing behind a screen with hundreds of stats that seeing the face of who you have at hand.

Tigh, Ultratigh Looser …?
Tight ¿? What is that? Rather loose aggressive
