Mad moment in poker: "A group of us played in the EPT event in Saalbach a while back and the night we arrived, I decided to get an early night ahead of the tournament. The others went out for the night, but when they got back, they found a complete stranger had walked into our hotel suite and got into bed next to me! We woke him up and eventually convinced him he was in the wrong room!"

Most memorable hand: The bad beats are always most memorable and I'll never forget losing a $20,000 pot - one of the five biggest I've ever played - when I got it in with top set of Kings vs a set of 6s, only for the river to bring the last six."
