Why? because all the cool kids are doing it

1. What is the biggest mistake people make at a NL table?
Oh that's easy, coz I do it msyelf...fall in love with your hole cards to the point of excluding all other new information from the community cards and betting.

2. What is the biggest mistake people make at a Limit table?
Thinking that you can bluff a guy off a hand easily.

3. Why do you play poker?
Because I need obsessions like some people need to breath. Motorcycling is not a year-round thing up here, and knitting is turning out to be far less social than poker.

4. If you weren't playing poker, what would you be doing?
Finding another group of people to annoy.


5. What is your favorite poker book and why?
Phil's Little Green Book - I have a short attention span

6. Who is your favorite poker player and why?
Phil Gordon: He seems like a genuinely nice guy, a good player, has a great voice, and is easy on the eyes.

7. Which poker player do you dislike the most and why?
He's not a poker player per se...but I'd love to see the back end of Vince Van Patton for the last time.

8. Do your coworkers know about your blog?
They know about it but have zero interest in it (Luddites, all of 'em).

9. What is the most you have won in a cash game or MTT (both live and online)?
I won two hundred-ish-plus online. Once.

10. What is the most you have lost in a cash game or in one day total (both live and online)?
One Hundred.

11. Who was your first poker blog read?
Dr. Pauly.

12. What satisfies you more, your aces holding up for a big pot or a bluff working for a big pot?
The bluff. Because aces never hold up.

13. Why do you blog?
It amuses me.

14. Do you read blogs from an RSS reader like bloglines or do you visit each blog?
I visit each one. I need the comment fix.

15. Would you rather play poker for a living than do what you currently do for a living?
Nope.

16. Do you wear a tin foil hat on occasion?
I used to, but had to stop as the voices hated it. Plus, helmet hair is bad enough...tin foil hair was fugly.

17. If you had to pin it down to one specific trait, what does a great poker player have (or do) that separates them from an average player?
Patience combined with boldness.

18. Is Drizz the coolest person on the planet for naming his baby Vegas?
Alas, only the second coolest - my friends from high school named their son with Vegas as the first name a few years ago.

19. What is your primary poker goal and are you close to accomplishing it?
My goal is not to suck at it. And no, I am not even remotely close.

20. What is your primary online site and why?
PokerStars. The interface isn't too awful, the games fill quickly and it runs quickly. Plus the custom images are a nice touch.

21. What site do you dislike and why?
Ultimate Bet. Come on people, how hard is it to test an upgrade properly??
