Final Damkier Performance in Regensburg’s Opera CarmenWritten by Brent Damkier
Brent L. Damkier, (pronounced Dam-key-r) handsome lyric tenor at Regensburg Opera, is best known for his recent roles as Prince Tamino in The Magic Flute and Prince Ramiro in Cinderella. Damkier will play role of Remendado a smuggler; while a small role Damkier makes very famous quintet “Smugglers Quintet” his own. The performances are on April 12th, and 18th. Just 75 miles (120 kilometers) out of Munich is historic German town of Regensburg. Just off Danube River, nestled in heart of a charming old town square is an intimate 380 year-old opera house seating 524 dedicated patrons and international guests; it is home to leading tenor. Damkier, who has performed throughout Europe, thrills audiences, with his sweet interpretation and punctuated tenor dexterity. From character parts, to male ingénue, to leading man, Damkier is bridging his operating roots to a U.S. tour in 2006 which will cross-over to a cabaret format broadening his audience and fan club. One of recital performances in early 2006 will be recorded and distributed for wide release.
| | Playing live casino poker for the first timeWritten by Oddvar Pettersen
The type of game and stakes you are going to play for are two first decisions you have to make before entering a live casino poker game. The minimum buy-ins in most live poker rooms are ten times minimum bet, but a general rule of thumb is to never bring less than forty times minimum bet to table. This means that you should for a 2/5 game bring a minimum of $80 and for a 5/10 game bring at least $200. Poker chips are used as a replacement currencie for real money in live casino poker rooms. You buy chips from cashier in back of poker room before sitting down or a chip runner will bring chips to you after you have sat down at table of your choice. Most live casino poker rooms have a desk in front of poker room with a Brush (casino employee) working behind it. You tell Brush your name and what game or games you want to play.
