- What are the rules of bar poker? Is this something I could specialise in?

Rules of bar poker: You sit at the bar and you cannot mention anything to do with poker. Saying "I run bad" or the word "Bluff" will result in a shot of sambuca. I came up with this game when I was so sick of people talking about poker and it really works!

Bloody good idea!  I assume it's not limited to just those specific phrases?

No, I heard it also includes the phrase "I have the 7 of diamonds, and he had the 6!". Just those 3 phrases. No more

byronkincaid-
which sites do you play cash games on?

For the last few months pacific and blue square (not so much blue square)


boldie-
spin up, or tight bankroll management?

Spin up = busto. Tight bankroll management it is. Unless of course you have a very good income and can afford to "spin up" often.

LeKnave-
Do you play many loldonkaments online?

Yes, but not so much lately.

What online tournament standard would you compare a gukpt to? what about an ept?

Gukpt's are pretty damn soft- you get a lot of "averagely poor" players whilst in an EPT you tend to get a lot of solid players with a few chip spewers. I'd compare an EPT to maybe the $100r on stars (quite tough). I can't quite think what I could compare to the GUKPT.

Do you think most online torny pro's would crush the aforementioned live tournaments?

Live donkaments are so different to online donkaments. If the online tourney pros were smart and determined they could probably adapt very quickly. Most would drop out earlier though because of the change in pace (1 hand per 2 minutes, 10 straight non-cashes = 1 month not 1 day).



GreekStein-
Would you consider teaching poker? If so how much would you charge someone who wanted your services?

Yes I would, I gave someone a very cheap coaching lesson to see if I would enjoy teaching and I did. I would probably charge $250 an hour as pokertracker tells me I earn more than that. Anything less than $250 an hour and I may as well play poker!

How do u deal with tilting?

I read the mindset of poker which helped a ton. Really if you teach yourself that making good moves is making you money rather than looking at outcomes it's actually quite difficult to tilt. I don't think I've tilted for about 3 months now, but if I ever feel slightly frustrated I generally go up to the practice are of my golf club and smash the hell out of some balls. Lately I've not been doing too well which just means I avoid the computer altogether.

Surely I'm not allowed to answer this one! I would have to say I am more successful online because Pete and Lucy hardly play online. Who knows about live.

Yeh, you make the rules if you bring the game up. In 20 minutes I think I bought Stu Rutter about 8 shots of sambuca. He literally cannot stop talking about poker sometimes!
