Elakeduck now a poker player and father-to-be
Former SK Gaming player Björn "ElakeDuck" Ödmann has come out from the shadows to talk of how his life has gone since quitting Warcraft3.
The Swede is now enjoying a lucrative poker career, when asked if it is enough to live the Swede replied "I could probably train a monkey to make a living out of poker, so yes."
Even though the games are getting progressively harder, the numbers are so sick anyone very dedicated with at least normal intelligence should be able to make a great living out of it for the rest of their lives."
