iGaming's Young Superstars

Aleksy Batishev: PokerLove.ru
At just 24 years old, Aleksy Batishev is making a very nice run through a corner of the market most affiliates overlook, Russia. Of course as a native of Kazakhstan with ancestry stretching back to the Cossacks, he’s uniquely qualified to handle this end of the business.
Batishev was playing Starcraft and managing Starcraft teams when he fell into the poker affiliate game. The emphasis on technical skills and community was a good fit and he’s been building his brand every since.
He’s proud of his status as a self-taught, hard-working entrepreneur and will clearly be force in Russian gaming for a long time to come.
