thoughts on the future of online poker ?
Future is looking a bit dim as we stand as games are getting tougher at an exponential rate and will continue to get tougher unless an outside force acts. The poker economy depends on a steady supply of fish (i.e. new money into the economy) because millions leave everyday from the poker economy because of rake. So imo something needs to happen for a new poker boom such as U.S. regulation, a Chinese boom, easier ways to deposit, an economic boom (bringing more discretionary income aka income to blow on online poker) etc etc
do you have a car ? pics ?
2009 Ford Focus SES
I bought it about a year and a half ago (pre million) so I wasn't super robusto yet and I was pretty much required to get a Ford to go work there... If I was buying a car now I would get something more baller like an Audi/Benz/etc. but cars are a terrible investment and I like the one I have just fine.
what's a typical day now you are in LA ?
during the week I pretty much get stuff done/work out/do coaching during the day and play at night. during the weekend I go out and do stuff... we're currently planning a big party for next fri and got zep/thanksb coming up here the following weekend. I have a long list of touristy type things I want to do while I am here in LA that I haven't gotten to yet, but now that I am finally settling in I think its about time to start crackin on that.
Do you set yourself a goal of numbers of hands played ? $ ?
I think setting a monetary goal is a big mistake and psychologically can cause you to play badly since so much of how you make in the short run is our of your control. I used to always set goals on number of hands I played when I was at midstakes but now that I am playing a ton more high stakes games which only run when certain players are on
that is somewhat out of my control as well. So I guess I kind of just have a lame goal to put it a certain number of hours every month between playing/coaching and to only play when I am playing my A game =)

-Top 3 of your favorite restaurants in Vegas.
N9NE Steakhouse, Nobu, Smith & Wollensky's
-How many live tournaments did you play so far since you started poker? Any good result?
I've probably played about 30 or so unless you count all of the charity events I played when I was bustoish at Ohio State. I've played 4 10k's with no cashes, most tournaments I have played have been in the $500-$1500 range though.

My biggest cash is taking down a $200 donkament at Caesar's for 28k on the last day of my first trip to Vegas in the summer of '08.
