Bienvenue, Les vidéos BluefirePoker maintenant en français : Giggy vous accueille!  Translation: BlueFire Poker will now be making video translations in French!  Martin Fournier Giguère (Giggy) will be doing French translations for existing and future Blue Fire training videos.  French poker players including Elky Grospellier and Antione Saout have been taking the poker world by storm.  As the french poker playing population continues to grow, so too will training sites to accomodate this rapid growth.  Now enjoy great videos such as those from Phil Galfond en francais.

Here is a quick profile about Martin Giguere from the Bluefire site:

When Martin began playing cash games, he started at the .50/1 games.  Only weeks later, he decided to drop out of school to play poker.  He spent the winter traveling through Europe and living on his poker winnings.  He then began to take the game more seriously, and progessed up through 1/2 and crushing 2/4 with a unique style that his opponents had trouble playing against, and enabled Martin to be arguably the biggest winner on the net at 2/4.  After returning from traveling through Austrailia last winter Martin purchased a luxury home in Quebec City with another well known poker pro, Takechip. Martin is 21 years old, and currently plays the 2/4 and 5/10 games online.  People have been waiting to see Martin teach his unique, ultra-aggressive style.

Interested in purchasing an established poker training site?  Well PokerSwat is selling.  In a statement released the other day:

""For the past few months we have been working hard on upgrading a number of areas on the website and introducing a number of new features. Ultimately, we want to ensure that our members will have the best possible service moving forward and it was decided in the past week that a takeover from an established presence in the industry would be best for all of the stakeholders of the website.

“Further announcements will be made in the coming weeks with information on how the website is going to move forward.

Regards

PokerSwat Management"
