Very bad luck for Titan Poker player Robert Van Den Bogaert as he encountered two fatal hands:
1. AA vs 88 and a 8 on the flop giving 3 of a kind to his opponent
2. The next hand,Robert went all-in preflop with JJ vs AA. J on the flop gave him some hope but an A on the river kicked him out of the Irish Winter Festival.

Marvin Rettenmaier - Titan Pro
Congratulations to Titan Poker team member, Marvin Rettenmaier from Germany, who made it to 3rd place at the Partouche Poker Million in Spain.
At the beautiful Casino Grand Madrid, Marvin battled a tough field of players who all wanted a piece of the one million Euros prize pool.
Marvin gave a wonderful performance but busted out when he went all-in with 99 against 66 pre-flop. The flop came out K36 and the turn and river produced no miracles for him.
Marvin took home 31,000 Euros and a lot of prestige.
Ciorteanu Virgil Marius Day 4
Just like that, the 41st Annual World Series of Poker is left with 747 very happy people at the end of Day 4. Most of the remaining players are sure to be pleased to have made it this far. Among those still in the money are Pro Titan Team member Joel Benzinou who is still alive with 50K.
With a total prize pool in excess of $100 million for the sixth consecutive year, it’s no wonder big things are happening at the World Series of Poker:
Among those no longer in contention are Ciorteanu Virgil Marius, “cidul”, the 3rd place finisher in the 2010 World Challenge Romania, who busted out in 614th place. Ciorteanu was able to stay around long enough to walk away with $21,327.
Some of Titan Poker’s other package winners still in the game include Jack Ellwood of the United Kingdom, and French players Damien Luis and Michael Maitre.

Andre Doehner’s $200,000 win in the Monthly Million on 14/02/10 was not only based on skill. According to him, luck and perseverance both performed a big role in his victory.
In the final minutes before winning the prize, Andre was not nervous and he was feeling sure of his game plan that was working for him. He stressed the fact that winning the first prize did require the drawing out of favorable cards, but his overall skill is what brought him this achievement. This was his third shot at the Monthly Million and it turned out to be lucky #3 in the end.
Andre is a No-limit Texas Holdem poker player and it is his dream to travel to play live poker at the Main Event in Las Vegas. His tip for those who wish to get their hands on the Monthly Million 1st place prize of $200,000 is “NEVER GIVE UP”.

Level 1(25-50): Raise UTG 175. Re-raise from me in 6th position with AK. Flop: 2s 4s QD. Check-check. KC on the turn. Check-check. Check and 300 from me makes him fold. Next hand I have K5S in the BB. Three limpers and the pot is checked to the river when a KD hits the board. One guy tries to bluff the pot with 300 and mucks when I call him. Read More »
