I wanna know what they think the most common and most costly mistake beginners make when the first start playing (other than bluffing too much).
How aggressive were you when building your bankroll? Did you ever take irresponsible shots at higher limits? How many times did you go broke in the process? And how many times did you fail at going pro?
What would be the single BEST piece of advice you could give to a low-stakes player (<200NL) that hopes to one day be a regular at their tables?
Calling too much and not knowing why they bet ldfoQuote:

If you could introduce a new poker game to online poker or change the rules of an existing game, what would it be?
If I have to choose, I would ask Barry or Daniel.

now this is what im talking about, obviously beginners make a ton of mistakes off the bat and listing the common ones is like reciting the alphabet. The question is which one is the most costly, either because its a hard habbit to break and you lose so much over the long run or it costs you big most of the time.Quote:

The rest however, will directly cost you money the more you do them. Which one costs a player the most is surely down to their natural tendencies.
How do you tell when someone is playing back at you vs caught a hand.
You ask.Quote:

Usually if the poop is large enough you can really crush the table but sometimes if its liquidy you may have to play tighter until someone poops in their pants as well and then you can duke it out with them. Also is it worth it to just drop your pants and poop all over their chips on the felt or should you stick to the standard let it loose in ur pants technique, I'm not sure if its worth the risk or not.
aaaaaand your a moran - gmml
I really hope Vanessa gets this question.. Just the thought of her saying "poop" in a cute little voice does it for me.Quote:

Srs question now, could you ask Barry Greenstein and Negreanu what they think the future holds for online poker.
srs question now, let's ask them what they think about other poker players. Like who's the worst established pro and such
I'd prefer to include Chris Ferguson on this Q - and more specifically on the long-term potentiality of good poker players continuing to earn decent profits. Will poker ever reach a point of "perfect competition", where the vast majority of players are largely break-even?Quote:

3: Did you make the jump from poker into the stock market/other forms of investing? Did any of it help your poker game and how?
4: Do you meditate? Techniques?
Guys, thanks for your questions. Unfortunately, we will not be able to ask any direct questions, only general. I've went through all of our lists and came up with 5 general questions that will be asked. Hopefully some pros will come and share some insight!
Here is the Q&A thread - http://www.flopturnriver.com/pokerfo...rs-180712.html
Please be respectful.
