Russian Poker Pro Xading Shares His Journey and Family Life


Xading, a 33-year-old poker player, has been actively involved in the poker world for about 8 years. He started his career on Betfair and later transitioned to PokerStars, where he achieved significant success. One of his main accomplishments in poker is winning the Sunday Warm-up tournament, which earned him $98,000.

Xading considers his family and relationships his greatest achievement in life. He is married and has two sons, aged 4.5 and 1.5 years. His eldest son began reading at the age of 3 years and 8 months, showcasing his early intellectual development. Xading's family supports his poker endeavors, and he values their mutual support in all his interests.

In addition to poker, Xading has a keen interest in sports. He played football from the age of 7 to 14 and volleyball in his later school years. He also enjoys playing tennis and watching major sporting events, including the Olympics, World Cup, and snooker matches featuring his favorite player, Mark Selby. His favorite TV series is Breaking Bad, and he enjoys whiskey, wine, and beer as his preferred alcoholic beverages.

I'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.
