The latest post about Donkey Bomber\’s troubles on the Iberian Peninsula reminded me … he was also on the cover of CardPlayer magazine recently. Perhaps this honor is a curse? Three covers ago, CP featured Brian Townsend — and inside was an interview where he explained how one can go from a small-stakes online player to a monster buy-in new-guy on High Stakes Poker. Of course, at the same time, Townsend, known as SBRugby in the online world, was chronicling on his own blog how he had been in the midst of a multimillion-dollar downswing and was considering giving up poker altogether. Oops!
My favorite line from the first Pokerati blogger ever to grace these pages:
Over time, the one thing I learned is that I\’m going to surround myself only with people who make me feel good. It\’s amazing if you do that how much more successful you can be in everything.
