Ivan Potocki

Ivan Potocki transitioned to poker writing after playing more or less full-time for about five years. He first discovered poker while studying English Language and Literature at the University of Sarajevo. What started with freerolls and micro-stakes games led to a love for poker, opening gates to a whole different world.

After finishing his studies and receiving his BA, he started to look for ways to merge his two big passions, writing and poker. Small, short-term gigs with several smaller poker blogs and websites gradually led to bigger opportunities, eventually landing him in the world of poker reporting.

Today, Ivan writes for a number of poker media outlets including, of course, Cardplayer Lifestyle.

The Poker Forge is a poker training site set up by Sky Matsuhashi. While he may not be the biggest name, Matsuhashi has been a successful online poker player for over a decade and a half. He’s also a phenomenal instructor and this is apparent via the excellent poker training materials he has developed and constructed on offer in The Poker Forge.

The pricing point is excellent, making The Poker Forge a very worthwhile investment for those looking to become serious about the poker play and take the study process seriously.
