Mikael Thuuric: 13 Years of Online Poker and Counting
Mikael Thuuric, a seasoned poker player, has been actively engaged in online poker for 13 years. His PokerStars nickname, ChaoRen160, is well-known among the poker community. Thuuric spent four years in Macau from 2011 to 2015, where he experienced the highs and lows of the poker scene.
Thuuric's preference for Pot Limit Omaha (PLO) online is driven by the game's high variance and the excitement of 6-max tables. He believes that PLO is particularly suitable for VIP players due to the significant advantage that can be gained over them in No Limit Hold'em (NLH).
Despite the rise of poker statistics and software, Thuuric does not rely heavily on these tools. He emphasizes the importance of understanding his opponents' intentions rather than relying on numerical data. Thuuric believes that while using software like Holdem Manager is a skill, it is crucial to balance this with a deep understanding of poker strategy and opponent psychology.

Argus RivenI've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
