Lifecoach1981
Name Origins
One of the part-time jobs that he did before becoming a pro poker player was life-coaching. He enjoyed it and so carried that name across to his gamertag.
Professional Gaming
Prior to streaming video games, he was a professional poker player. In 2013, he was invited to the Gwent Challenger event. He looked into the game before then, but once he started playing it, he became addicted to it and switched to fulltime Gwent. As the game changed over the next couple of years, he lost interest and switched to professional Hearthstone and variety streaming. This marked the really big increase in his popularity.
When he was playing Hearthstone, he noticed superjj102 when he reached Rank 1 on the EU server and invited superjj102 to his house. They became friends and started streaming and participating in tournaments together. They are still close friends and streaming buddies.
Relationships
His stream knows his wife as ‘Wifecoach’ and their little girl as ‘Babycoach.’ They also have a black Labrador.
Quotes
-
[In regard to pursuing one’s dreams], from my own life experience I can only say that if one door closes many others open at the same time and that creates a positive feedback spiral in which you are less and less afraid living your own determined life, but ultimately everyone has to figure that out for themselves since it´s rather something you incorporate over time than stuff you can learn by somebody else telling you how it could be.
