Ah hell, in after Fedor (ish) i shall die a happy man after all. Great year for you Fedor and at this stage in your career you are yet to fall foul of anybody so you are universally liked (in Pokersville that is but .....)so you are easy to pull for in a sweat etc.

Fedor it just shows another side as to what makes poker tick in that Ole Schemion was the guy running like Midas a year or so back, but it has been all you 2016 so far. I see Ole is coasting in the Main,first time i seen his name this WSOP but he has a healthy stack so......

Fedor yesday i saw you in a couple of i/views,and on a podcast and that was my first time i heard you speak,but you appear to be a level headed, nice young guy,and exactly what Pokers needs as an Ambassador,along with Antonio,D Negs you slot in there nicely and i wish you all the best for as long as you play pokers.

Daniel Coleman is def not a guy who wants to be an Ambassador it transpires, so we (pokers) are lucky that you popped up actually,plus you are far FAR more photogenic along with being glib with your tongue. (i must sound like your g/friend talking to her best friend.)

Congrats to Fedor on an incredible year of NLHE, arguably unsurpassed in tourmament excellence. You seem like a good, level-headed dude. Enjoy your time away from the game, and I hope you continue to play the big buy-in tourneys every now and again.

He's financially set, too, so why not refocus on subjects that are more fun/rewarding than poker?

Don't want to end up like one of these old pros who are miserable degens. Fedor is GOOD, never seen Dan Smith struggle so much against an opponent. He really got into Dan's head.

congrats

Imagine if Isildurr had done the same after crushing Durrr.
So EPT Barcelona starts in a couple of days - haven't been following the story of Fedor's retirement super closely ... was the plan that Fedor was hoping to skip this event and take a break?

Sometimes maybe it can be hard to change habits if one doesn't have to - like how Michael Phelps at the end of the London games in 2012 said that was going to be it for him?

Wonder if he'll really follow through and take a break?

PS. Guess Neymar won't be showing up to EPT Barcelona this year either - looks like he's still playing in the Olympics ...

Fedor the new human luck box High roller as of late. His results will change when his cards normalize. Just like Colman and the others.

I really enjoyed railing Fedor in SCOOP this year as well, really good player, especially for his young age!
I saw he posted in this thread too so I guess he might read it from time to time

In that case, Grats fedor!

The kid handles himself really good both on the table and off. It's no accident he's won so much money in the last year. He makes good reads on players and gets his money in right most of the time and can get away from bad hands. He keeps his cool under pressure and thinks his way through the tough spots.

He reminds me of Chip Reese, just keeps making good decisions. That's a winning formula in poker. I also like that he stays humble despite his huge success. He seems to be well aware that he could also run bad for a while. I hope for his sake he's smart enough to make some good investments with his money. Ten Million invested wisely will give you a nice income for life! How about 6-9% a year return on your money. That's very possible if you know where to put it.

The caveat is that if anyone promises you huge returns on your investment (like 25-50% in a year or less) you better run!

Triple digit returns per annum occur if you're willing to risk 40% drawdowns
