    Default FTR is looking for a Pro to interview

    Hi guys,

    FTR is looking for a professional poker player within our community who wants to share his or her story about how Black Friday has affected them. FTR is publishing a special article on April 15, 2012 to mark the 1 year anniversary of Black Friday, and is looking to publish an interview that will try to show how the events of Black Friday and its aftermath have affected players directly.

    It'd be nice to have a US player, since the US has been obviously the hardest hit, but it may be interesting to have the perspectives of a non-US player as well. We're looking for stories of people who for example were doing well paying all their bills playing poker pre-Black Friday, but have had to seek other forms of employment afterwards, or have had to make similar drastic changes in their lives to cope.

    If you're interested, please reply to this post or send me a PM. Thanks!

    -eugmac

    edit: okay fine commemorate wasn't the right word perhaps get lost.

    This is going to add to my depression. I'm obviously not a pro poker player, but I would compare Black Friday to losing my job as say, a ditch digger, then having to compete with 1 million other ditch diggers for less money and worse working conditions.

    Nobody? Maybe y'all looking for incentives. Maybe gmml will give incentives. It's not really my place to say. An FTR t-shirt maybe. Maybe these suggestions are going to get me into serious trouble. Oh well.

    I'd be willing to do an interview about my busto microstakes career and how black friday forced me to play busto microstakes at different busto sites. For a free t of course.
