I play online a lot, but It feels great to win.” Despite playing in his first live tournament, Tatarintsev didn’t look out of his element. He said, “I was feeling really confident today; I was always stealing, squeezing, bluffing for sure; I love bluffing.” His confidence didn’t wavier at the final table, being one of the most aggressive and amongst the chip leaders throughout.
