What's up fellow Academy members? 

As most of you probably know, the poker industry has experienced another boom: TWITCH. Poker pros, the best of them all, have been streaming online poker daily! That's right. Daniel Negreanu was live on twitch, winning tens of thousands of Dollars playing from his hotel room, and at times from his bathroom!! Friend of Poker Stars Jaime Staples and Team Pro Jason Somerville are amongst the Pros streaming regularly. 

But you know who else is on Twitch streaming online poker, live with commentary? ME! That's right, I'm streaming poker on twitch. Had anyone told me this a couple of months ago, or back when I started playing poker at my Grandma's house 9 years ago, I would have probably laughed out loud at the idea. 

First of all, why would I let other players (who might be playing against me, or will play against me in the future) see the way I am playing, and hear the way I reason out a hand? What fun could there be in speaking in front of a camera alone for 7hrs straight? 

Well boy would I have been wrong about that! The truth is, I am having a blast!! Everytime I play poker and I'm not live on twitch, I actually feel bad about it! It has been a lot of fun, and the good news is: This is only the beginning. Me and another Team My Poker Academy member, XEOFLEX have also been hosting dual sessions. Where it is me and him, hanging out, playing some poker and discussing strategy together. Here's what we get out of it: It's fun! It keeps you active and it's tough to fall asleep when you have people watching. AND it helps our poker game. When you're discussing strategy about a hand out loud, you are bound to make better decisions. 

What do the viewers get? Well I can show you better than I can tell you, so be sure to check out our next stream! In general, viewers get to hang out with us in the chat while watching us play poker. It is educational as we discuss poker strategy on the go. Viewers can ask questions and will get a response after the three minute delay elapses. Most importantly, I try to make it as entertaining as possible for the viewers. 

I mostly stream MTTs in the evening (Central European Time) and sometimes other games like cash games or sit n gos.
