Mement_mori: The Poker Pro Who Dominates Rush Tournaments


Mickey Petersen, known as mement_mori, is a high-limit online poker player who tops the bluffmagazine.com ranking and is fifth on pocketfives.com. On August 13, 2010, Petersen won his second gold FTOPS football shirt in tournament #27, a Rush Limit Hold'em event with a $216 buy-in.

Petersen's first FTOPS victory came in the spring of 2010, where he won $86,700 for first place in tournament #22 (NLHE, 6 max for $216). In the spring of 2010, Petersen made it to the final table three times in SCOOP tournaments, earning a total of $314,750.

When he's not dominating the poker tables, Petersen enjoys a variety of hobbies. His favorite TV shows include Arrested Development, Twin Peaks, Battlestar Galactica, Mad Men, The Wire, Spaced, and Sopranos. He also has a love for literature, with favorite authors including Chuck Palahniuk, Bret Easton Ellis, and Douglas Coupland. Petersen plays 40-70 tournaments on regular days and up to 90 on Sundays, with a personal record of 139 tournaments in a single day.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
