“I HAD TO PLAY!”

KKPoker chatted to Patrick, our first Canada Star winner, to get his thoughts on his amazing achievement.

Patrick, congratulations on becoming a KKPoker Canada Star! Share with us your journey in poker and how you became a part of the KKPoker community?

“I’ve been playing poker recreationally since 2003.

“In 2023, a friend introduced me to KKPoker, and I was playing the weekly Canada’s Best tournaments and discovered other games, such as PLO5.

“I really like the KKPoker promotions, the Instant Rakeback system, and the overall tournament schedule.”

What motivated you to enter the Canada Star sponsorship?

“I usually play $5-$30 buy-in tournaments and recently I saw this wonderful Canada Star promotion.

“I had to play. I did 100 SPINUP games, and played about 10 hours at $0.25$/ $0.50 PLO. Then about 10 hours at $0.10$ / $0.25 FLASH-NLH, and 20 tournaments.

“Those are all games that I knew I could beat or at least break even. I managed to complete these missions quickly and made a $500 profit while playing. I knew the Canada Star promotion was a golden chance for me to try and move up stakes.”

How are you planning to use your sponsor package?

“I’m planning to play two CAD$1000 tournaments at Playground Poker in Montreal, Quebec, and hopefully get big cashes and improve my live poker game.

“I also received 10x $100 Glory tickets. I hope these will help me increase my KKPoker bankroll, so I can move up stakes and play more $50 and $100 tournaments.

“My biggest online score is currently USD$6,600 on KKPoker, achieved in December 2023. In live poker, where I’ve played about 30 tournaments, my highest score is $2,500.”
