3 quickies for you Mr Thew.



Who is the best female player you have played against in your opinion?

You always seem very placid and genial but have you ever thrown a hissy fit after a bad beat?

Have you ever had a potential transvestite at your table and did you check to make sure?

What's the worst/funniest tell you've ever seen?

Which do you find hardest to read, people who make the same raise whatever hand or people who constantly change the size of the raise?

What are next weeks lottery numbers?











ok so the last one was a bit hopeful!!

Is it true you won't be playing the GUKPT this week?

Is it because i have qualified for it and you see 2nd place in a GUKPT as failure? Grin

Hi Julian thanks for doing this.

I think it is fair to say you are a popular amongst your colleagues on the UK and European circuit. Do you think your personality helps you at the poker table? For example do people in sub conscious way not mind losing a hand to you or not play back you as much etc..



it's up to the individual but for sure, i think your personality can be a valuable part of the package.
for me there's no act, i'm just myself, that works for some, whereas others might feel the need to put on a game face.
i met someone at the end of last year who felt i could make adjustments to my table presence/personality - some interesting ideas, but for me, it was out of my comfort zone.
i think if people get on with you then yeah, their not going to mind losing a pot to you compared to a table banger with a loud mouth - although i can see how that personna works for some folks.

Hi Julian - If you were a new player entering the world of poker (knowing what you know now) would you concentrate on holdem or omaha (cash or tourney) as the best way of making a profit?

Thanks.

hey tracey,
tourney-wise outside of nl holdem there isn't much variety of choice in europe, so i'd def. stick with that - it's where both the money & the glory are.
cash game-wise, i'm strictly a holdem player, but most of the seasoned pro's appear to opt for plo or a mixed game.
to be proficient at them all would be the best.
these days tournaments can rip through a bankroll in no time at all; to someone setting out i'd recommend cash games to build the roll, with a percentage aportioned for shot-taking in the comps.

Hey Julian,

A few questions for you....

Who would u say is the toughest player u have come up against at the tables?

Is there any big name pro that u played against and thought he was overrated?

Do u try to grind out a weekly wage in the cash games online or live(stakes) when ure at home?

Cheers

i haven't played with many of the named american players but by toughest i'll go for those that apply the most pressure - on a good day ram, roland & patrik can appear unstoppable & both exude an air of invincibilty.
everyone has bad days, days when you're not focused on the game, other stuff going on, so yeah i've seen many a big name appear very average, but i'd never write them off.
when i'm at home i'll play a local comp, bust early & then jump into a cash game & hope to hit a few drawing hands, cough

can you ask williamhill why they have killed the super seies games! they were the best value games on the net , noone else i can think of added money to a prizepool , now they have more than halfed the added cash and the numbers playing have halfed also, shouldnt really complain about added money i suppose but still!lol

yes, the super series was very popular but it just ran its course - there'll be something new along soon!

What is the biggest animal you could kill with your bare hands?

What is the biggest animal you could kill with a plank of wood with a nail through it?

How did you get into poker?

hit 30, sporting life over, existence lacked a competitive element,
rounded up some mates for a couple of home games, then i moved back to dublin for a while & joined the brothers saturday night game.
got hooked & 6 months later i ventured into the jackpot card room & was unable to extract myself...
