About me:
Hello, TPE family! My name is Nick Zautra. I am a 31-year-old Cognitive Science doctoral student who plays primarily online MTT’s. I’ve been a member of TPE on and off for the past few years, and a student of TPE Pro Matthew Hunt since July 2016. Since starting coaching with Matt, I’ve cashed for over $85k in online MTT’s on the U.S.-facing sites Ignition and ACR, with five, $5k+ cashes in 250-600 person fields. In May 2017, I relocated to Querétaro, MX to play a full low/medium SCOOP schedule. While I didn’t come out on top during this SCOOP series, I built big stacks, made several deep runs in 1000-2000+ person fields, and became accustomed to playing with and adjusting to tough (and not so tough) opponents.
While my play is currently limited to online due to my work schedule and present location, I actually got my start back in 2013 in my hometown of Tempe, AZ, where I found early success playing daily live tournaments and cash at Casino Arizona. I’ve played a few live events such as on the WSOP circuit, the Seminal Hard Rock Poker Open, PH Goliath, and Venetian Deep Stacks, but unfortunately only cashed in one event (I ran pretty terrible, and also admittedly had some leaks.)
Since putting in a large volume of low, mid, and some high stakes MTT’s online over the past year, working 60+ hours with my Tournament Poker Edge coach Matthew Hunt as well as on RunItOnce (yes, I went to the dark side), and having built up a bankroll from $200 to $38k in just four months playing MTT’s on Ignition, I am confident in my edge in the tournaments in which I plan to play.
