Is playing on UB 80/160 now. For his location it says he's "representing Sudan." I feel like I don't even need to ask the question.

Sweden I think. He's from Ljinkjopjing (note the extra J's for effect). I dunno if that's in Sweden or not though. He's certainly from somewhere around there.

No, a Swedish kid half his age with a WCOOP bracelet and a 6-figure online poker income.

BTW, Seidel plays under the handle 'litterbox' on Stars.

Sudan-Sweden, actually that's kind of funny. Pronounced almost the same way. Never thought of that.

Hmm, I would guess that Ljinkjopjing is in China, or possibly in Korea. Is Erik by any chance Chinese?

I bet Joey Bitch could tear up Erik123 on the poker table.

Erik is a limit player!! [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]
I thought he was a NL player.
Erik123: No, I like limit better. I'm better at it and there's more
action. I like that - I don't wanna sit and wait for big hands.
What is he talking about? I don't wanna sit and wait for big hands? I've seen him lots of time playing NL. The tournaments are most of the time NL. He's a great NL player. There're more money to win playing limit, but that's not why there're less action playing NL [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

I don't know what you meant by your last sentence there..

but Erik, as good as he is at NL, his bread-and-butter is actually that he murders people playing heads-up limit hold'em for high stakes.
