This week’s Podcast features interviews with top-ranked online tournament players Jim “Mr_BigQueso” Collopy and Tony “Bond18” Dunst.

For the first time since grade school, Jim Collopy is out of a football uniform in the month of October. Currently enrolled as a Freshman at New York University, “Mr_BigQueso” is enjoying a lighter class load that allows him to play more online tournaments than before.

Jim is a PocketFives.com Triple Crown winner, and also captured 3rd Place in the PokerStars Quarterly Million in late March for a score of $125,000. During his interview, Jim will discuss tournament strategy and lament over a prop bet he lost in high school that cost him thousands of dollars.

Tony “Bond18” Dunst shares a highly unusual story in his interview this week. Born in Wisconsin, Tony has lived in China and was once banned from the continent of Australia, where he now resides. Tony is considered by many to be well on his way to a Top 50 ranking, especially after taking down a Sunday Mulligan tournament on FullTiltPoker for $27,000.

“Bond18” also reflects on his 2007 WSOP experience, where he played 30 events for a net loss of $61,000. His story shows that even the best tournament players in the world can experience gut-wrenching variance — a concept that Tony claims is lost on current #1 online tournament player Chad “M8kingMoves” Batista (stay tuned).
