Hey Guys, if you saw my post about
https://pokerhousetoronto.com/
Here’s an update; if you think you might want to apply to join the team or stay shorter term then message me very soon as I will soon be choosing and notifying the core team. Check out the pretty pictures on the website, feel free to HMU with any questions and please share with your poker friends. here’s the situation:
I’ve got 5 strong candidates for 2 or potentially 3 rooms available for long term guests 6 months+, all MTT full time professionals who are keen on spending lots of time studying and helping each other with hand reviews. All of them have expressed interest in moving in between December and the end of January. The aim is to get two other roommates to start considering I don’t want the place to feel overcrowded and I would like to keep a room or two open for shorter-term stays, mainly poker-playing friends of myself and the other roommates, and/or top MTT players who just want to come to grind a series like WCOOP. I am also aiming to not have my attention divided too thinly when it comes to coaching, since I want to be sure those who stay here leave feeling they got all the extra value of living with other poker professionals that I have been advertising!
Also among my reasons to start with just 2 other poker playing roommates is that I don’t want to spend my time dealing with interpersonal problems that may arise with a greater number of roommates.
Please keep in mind, for those of you I haven’t already detailed the situation to, that I have a girlfriend who is here a couple nights a week, and a non-poker professional roommate, an old friend of mine named Phil. Phil is a great guy to have around because aside from being awesome to chill with, he’s neat and organized and has a background in tech support for any issues that may arise with keeping your set-up running smoothly. Oh I’m 38 and Phil is 35 if that matters to you.
If having only 2 other MTT playing roommates + Phil doesn’t sound like it will present enough of a social life for you (or too much?), then maybe this isn’t the house for you. I like to try and keep some balance in my life so I’m not saying it will be 24-7 poker and studying, but it certainly will be the focus. Feel free to ask me for details about my social life and what activities/entertainment are available in the area - I am sure you won’t be bored and will drastically improve your poker abilities should you come and stay here!
