Hi, I’m Marvin Rettenmaier from Team Titan, reporting on my experiences following the WPT Vienna. We drove back to the hotel and its 4pm now. I just woke up and wrote this, Marko and I are going to grab some dinner shortly and then we are going to the Montesino since the High Roller event starts at 5pm. I am not quite sure if I should play it yet, due to my cold and the tough field, but I think I will probably play it anyway.

I am very mad at myself since I got invited on a trip to Bratislava today, but I just couldn’t get up. So I am missing out on the quad racing and to what I was looking forward to the most: the 4by4 jeep racing…. I hope I can organize a trip like this myself next week when we are in Bratislava for the next WPT anyway.

Since I want to play as many live tournaments as I can this year, it is very important to me to still keep things fun. Here are a couple of impressions of stuff me and my buddies have done within the last 2 weeks:

- Teaming up with Titan dog Shilow playing the 1K EPT tournament

Titan Poker Dog

- International Championship of Pillow Fighting live from the Alpine Palace

- Titan Pride: Blogger Pierre shaving his head… (see below)

I have a lot of fun things in my head that I want to realize. Here under are a lot of musical projects: I want to do a rap session with one of the most famous rappers in France ever: Kool Shen of NTM – we already planned it at a tournament in Marrakesh, but then we missed each other.

In the near future I will also have a heads-up against German reporter Werthan, where I will have to play the piano and announce my bets singing.

And I also have a project with “the most brilliant, sophisticated, multilingual, Croatian poker reporter ever”, Tatjana Pasalic, in the planning process – can’ t tell what its going to be yet, but I am really looking forward to this one!!!

Good luck at the tables!!!

Marvin
