Here's how PokerMillion, known as Sam Tiwana to his friends, answered some of our questions:

PokerStars Blog: What was it like to make a final table at WCOOP and finish as well as you did?

PokerMillion: I enjoy Omaha a lot...it was great to play with some of the best players online and even pros. I wanted to finish at least 27th to break even since it was a rebuy event and things didn't go as planned for me in the beginning. Once I got there, I decided to play a bit aggressive and
build up the stack.... lady luck was with me (my wife) so there was no stopping for me till I was heads-up. It was a great experience and I really enjoyed it.

PokerStars Blog: Are you a full-time player or do you have a regular job? If you have a day job, what is it?

PokerMillion:I'm not a full-time player and play when I get time from my business. I'm in civil construction business.

PokerStars Blog: Do you have any plans for the money you won in WCOOP?

PokerMillion: This is bonus money....like all my poker winnings that gets spent on eBay for newest gadgets, I plan on upgrading my Benz and get a special plate "PokerMillion" with this money.

PokerStars Blog: How long have you been playing at PokerStars?

PokerMillion: I was the first to beta test PokerStars software and I used to play for fun. After learning the game a little, I decided to try it out for some real money and have been learning since! I don't have much live play experience and don't prefer it as well. My first live play experience was WSOP 2004 after I won a seat from PokerStars.

PokerStars Blog: What is your best poker game?

PokerStars Blog: Any particular moments in the tournament when you thought, "I'm going to make the final table?"

PokerMillion: Yes, when I was a chip leader with two tables remaining...I decided to turn off my aggressive mode and wait until final table...getting there was a great feeling as always!
