“Scrappin’ it out on the felt” is what Tim Kopper considers his full time occupation. Having played poker for most of his life, it was only these past few years that Tim has started to study it more seriously. Now Tim plays poker both live and online with a preference for No Limit Texas Holdem. He plays both tournaments and ring games but considers tournaments “more fun.” Winning a €1,500 PokerNews Cup Austria Package is Tim’s biggest win to date. “I was pretty shocked because I hadn’t wanted to get my hopes up since winning was a longshot,” the American explains. “So when I won, it took a few moments to sink in and then I was pumped!” Tim celebrated by getting “wasted and telling anyone who would listen!” When not busy at the tables, Tim enjoys [playing the] guitar and [having] good times with good friends.” This will be Tim’s first visit to Austria. Good luck to Tim and the rest of Team PokerNews!
