Thanks to all of you for reading. It was really fun and would love to do it again once I have some more to say :)
Maybe trying to hack their brain may help a bit. Like when someone gets it in bad or something I always try to remember that they are just doing their best too. I don't hate them for trying their...
Alright I'm heading out for an hour or so. Feel free to keep firing the questions. Ill have this page bookmarked and keep answering as long as they come in :)

The stream is on a 4 minute delay so the players can't see my cards. It is very rare that people try and wait through the delay and if they do you can cut the stream and restart it. That has only...
Thanks for watching man!
I like how you said smallest and largest. I think my attention drags a lot playing one table specifically. I can manage 3-9 fairly well. Over that and I can't keep up with...
Not really haha. I used to get mad but I stamped out caring about results by switching what measured success. 4 years ago I punched a hole in the wall. I haven't done anything like that since.
I'm not sure Chris. It would probably be working for myself somehow and competing in one way or another. Maybe finance or online business.
If I ever wanted to change careers I think poker would...
Hey tommy,
They gave me a phone call on my cell haha. It was crazy and unexpected so I didn't really know what to say. After some back and forth for a few weeks we signed a deal. It's a dream come...
Hey Cruelsebastian,
I have no idea where I will be in ten years. Hopefully I will have had lots of success in poker and on twitch. Will have travelled a bunch and met a bunch of cool people. I...
That was a fun one to be right on. You really feel the pain as well when you are wrong because the chat doesn't like hero calls. They would have let me know haha.
I am raising fairly small because...
Im going with it! Unless it's a guarantee in a satellite or there are some crazy money jumps 9 handed, Im fist pumping my chips in there. Folding them would be scarier to me then calling and losing....
Hey Thomas,
I do yes. I think we are to early into twitches life to see it be a big thing now but it will happen. I was watching a video by Gary Vaynerchuk (really great Youtube Channel.) He talks...
I think it's a huge amount mental. I have players come up to me a lot and ask about how to get into online. 9 in 10 of these people fail because of Bankroll Management. Too high too fast. Likewise,...
Hey Pokerguy,
This is a tough one. It may just be the mindset of not caring about results. It hasn't increased my win rate but it has increased the amount of time I can play, and the happiness in...
Hey Givememyleg
- The twitch poker community taking off has been a game changer for me. It has made it more enjoyable to play, and I get to connect to a whole new group of people (like the feeling...
Canadians! My fav team followed by Detroit then Calgary
and ready to mingle ;)
HeyYou! great name,
I am not currently no but stay tuned on that front. I am now in a better position to make an impact outside of poker and plan to do so.
Hey Ric, Thanks!
Even before i was Sponsored by PokerStars, it was always my #1 choice. Best Variety, best software, biggest and best tournaments, best security, etc. It really is my favourite...
Hey Esterno19,
I have no Portuguese heritage but I kinda wish I did (Vamoooo.) My parents just spelled it that way.
I'm not sure what life would be like without technology. Since I was 6 or 7 I...
Hey Aidan
I would say that monogamy or exclusive relationships as a concept will be outdated at some point in the near future. I think the restriction of physical of emotional desire that...
Hey dlbarlowe,
Most people didn't give me credit in the beginning. A decent amount of the general population thinks it's a luck game so I'm always prepared for the eye rolls when I tell people....
I'm really behind the times on US legislation efforts. I really really hope that people in the US can soon play regulated poker online. It blows my mind every day the situation the US populace is in....
Hey Arquerito,
The balance is hard between study and play right now because the stream time is unexpected. I think I average maybe 3 hours a week right now of study which isn't optimal. I'm...
Hey Daniel,
Thanks man. I don't take very many notes no. I find that most of them are so specific and very difficult to extrapolate to other areas. I do take a few but find myself almost always...
