CardPlayer Player of the Year Winner Tom Marchese Sits Down With Poker News Daily

Submitted by Luckylizzy on Thu, 2010-12-30 15:01

The CardPlayer Player of the Year awards winner, Tom Marchese recently sat down with Poker News Daily to discuss the amazing journey that catapulted him to the top of the race. During the battle for one of the most sought after titles in the poker world Marchese made his way to 11 final tables in major live poker tournaments and made an incredible $2 million along the way. He recently signed with Poker Icons and has a bright future ahead of him thanks to his many accomplishments in 2010.

Here are a few of the most interesting questions and answers during the Poker New Daily interview with Marchese:

 PND: What was the highlight of 2010 for you?

Tom Marchese: It has to be the NAPT Venetian Main Event win. Going into that, no one knew me on the live scene, so it put me on the map. I had just final tabled a tournament in Atlantic City and had all the confidence in the world.

PND: When did you start gunning for the award?

Tom Marchese: After the WSOP. Before that, I just played main events and don’t think I played any buy-ins below $5,000. After the WSOP, in the race for the Player of the Year title, I decided to grind smaller tournaments and make a run. I don’t know if I could grind them all the time, but I enjoyed it.

PND: Speaking of traveling, what is your favorite tournament location?

Tom Marchese: My favorite poker trip was to Aruba, which was actually canceled this year. It’s one of the nicest beaches I’ve been to and has a very relaxed atmosphere. When you go to the Bahamas, the weather’s good, but it’s really obvious that you’re at a poker tournament. I also went to Portugal for EPT Vilamoura and played in the Partouche Poker Tour. Those were both on the beach and really fun. I’m looking for a beach and nice weather when I travel.

PND: What goals do you have for 2011? Will we be seeing a repeat Player of the Year performance?

Tom Marchese: The repeat is on my mind. At least for the start of the year, I’ll play a pretty heavy schedule and see what happens. If I enter the WSOP and I’m in the race, I’ll try to defend. I’ll definitely be playing all of the good U.S. main events and will probably make it to Europe a few times for London. San Remo, Vilamoura, and Partouche. No matter what, I plan to play a lot.
