Jan-Christoph von Halle
Habitual Entrepreneur, Senior IT-Consultant and Pokerplayer
Hello and welcome!
Here is who I am: I was born 1965, studied economics and work as The Consultant in large and very large IT-projects.
I consider myself as The Allrounder with quite some program management-, financial-, organizational-, design-, web- and development skills. Find my skills, project history and some references on LinkedIn or my site (German).
Also, I am The Pokerplayer and play poker since 1992. Not for a living, but for a better one (this is, until I become The Loser, of course).
The poker community knows me as 50outs. I was The Pokerblogger in being one of the first blogging players back in the years (check here for those random ramblings) and I was responsible for the German Pokerstars Blog over 2 years. When I play live, I prefer Pot Limit Omaha over No Limit Holdem and (nowadays) tournaments over cash games. I made 3 World Series Of Poker final tables and have several more cashes to my name.
Others know me as The Husband of the best woman on the planet, the love of my life and professional poker player Katja Thater. Some also know me as The Father of the best kids on the planet, my now 21-years old son Alexander and my 22-years old daughter Patricia.
Finally, a cool million people know me as I was The Creator, builder and partner in IntelliPoker, the PokerStars poker school project, from 2006 until 2009 (with 1m+ members when I left).
