The Microgaming Poker Network is busy adding value and removing waste, and Kilian Kramer wins the tour’s Viennese Main Event.

When I read about The Microgaming Poker Network (MPN), my cynical attitude vanishes like Aston Villa. Has the gaffer given everyone a copy of the Lean Startup by Eric Reiss? The MPN isn’t a start-up, but they appear to be using Validated Learning to improve their product, straight out of the Eric Reiss playbook.

Take the lobby, for example. The MPN is busy identifying value and waste. In particular, a focus on spick and spam decluttering.

High Stakes Sit n Go (Non-Hold’em) games = waste.
