Poker Brothers: Aleksandr and Viktor Malinovskiy Share Their Journeys

Alexander Malinovskiy, known as SašGoku, is the brother of Viktor Malinovskiy, a well-known poker player. Alexander started playing poker in 2003 or 2004, initially without much success. His father was a sportsman, and the family lived in various countries including Germany, Tunisia, Israel, and Poland.

Alexander moved to Malta in May 2017 with his family. He mentioned that living on NL100 was not enough to comfortably support his family, and he had to find additional work. He also started playing in Chinese poker rooms to adapt to the new dynamics of the game.

Another notable figure in the poker world is Nikolai FCLM, a lawyer who started playing poker in 2014. He initially struggled with the rules but eventually became proficient, rising through the ranks from NL2 to NL25. Nikolai's journey highlights the challenges and rewards of balancing a full-time job with a passion for poker.
