I would appreciate any advice on the correct/incorrect time to add on in a tournament. I really have no clue if I should always add on or never. Is it worth adding on if you have a very short stack? Likewise is there any point adding on if you are one of the chip leaders? At the moment I nearly always add on regardless of the circumstances, just because "everyone" else is. Any advice would be much appreciated

Hi guys,
I noticed a lot of talk about students in one of the other topics and decided it would be a good idea to start a new thread on the issue. I myself am a university student and can't get enough of poker, online or live. What is everyones opinions of student players?Not only do we have poker within the university but inter university tournaments are becoming more frequent and students are benefiting by improving rapidly. Are people worried that students have so much access to poker that they will become bigger and better than many current players?
Should students be encouraged to play poker with such financial restraints? It is a fact that many students run up huge debts hrough online poker. Also, should poker within the university be legal and is it encourgaing gambling? We have an excellent, well run poker society, yet cash games still occur despite being illegal. Does this need to be addressed
Sorry if I went on a bit, however I am interested in people's views on student players, especially those of the "older" generation.

Great stuff Rob, really enjoyed following your diary so far.
It must have been an experience sitting next to Daniel Negreanu. I'm interested if you are the character that cardplayer were referring to that was giving Negreanu a bit of needle;
"There is quite a feud brewing between Daniel Negreanu and an unknown player in Seat 2 at his table. Shortly after arriving at the table, Negreanu asked his unknown opponent, nicely, to square the table. The unknown decided to take a combative stance, and immediately went to work needling Negreanu. Some bits of conversation for your enjoyment:
After Negreanu bluffed the unknown out of the first pot they played together: Negreanu: "That's 75 (in chips) we're coming for the rest." Unknown: "I got a surprise for you."
After the unknown continued to needle Negreanu, and Negreanu dragged another pot: Negreanu: "You're messing with the wrong guy, bro. I promise." Unknown: "You just have luck on your side. Wait until I take that away from you."
Good luck in future events, hope you can cash a few more times P.S. Go easy on me, this is my first ever post
