hey viff sweet you're doing this, and pleased to hear you'll be playing the 48h cash game again in UK. i don't have any specific hands to ask you about it, but wondered whether you were that aggressive in the game last time because of the 'voting off' thing or did you feel you were the rightful captain of the table and just wanted to get the action going. Or maybe you were you just jet-lagged and wanted to impress tatjana =)

did you consciously adjust your game once you got very deep later on and if so how? in fact i'd be really interested in any thoughts on how you adjust your play once your deep in a session and have a good feel of the players. cheers, you were fun to watch in it, as always.

How would you rate Alan Meltzer poker skills? From 1 to 10?
Also, is he a genuinely good man or just pretty weird off the table?

Your favorite Cash Game - regardless of line up- HSP, PAD cash game, UK or US "The Big Game"?

Who do you like playing against the most? Hellmuth, Tony G, Eli, etc etc

Thanks dude, I think this is pretty awesome of you and best of luck in your next taping.

Now that you've seen a couple episodes of this season - do you think they made a mistake getting rid of AJ, then getting rid of Gabe? (If you are allowed to answer as a poker TV viewer)

ALong the same lines: do you go out of your way to watch yourself play on TV? Is there any value at all to it as a learning tool?

Just watched tonights HSP - curious about the KQ hand against Robl's 22.
When you hit your K on the River, you seemed to quickly give up on the hand (?). What made you think he had the better hand? $15K....lol

Thanks Vif....would have much rather seen you win that hand! Enjoy your appearances on these shows....

Viffer, someone above asked you what you think of Alan Meltzer's game. I would like to know what you think of him personally, as I am sure you love to be at a table with him. I find him pretty repulsive and not suitable for tv...sucking on a plastic spoon in the PAD episode????

Be honest. Alan will never read what you say here.

Viff, why did u folded KQ vs Robl, on river. U said u should've folded it on flop. What did u put him on? Isn't it's an easy call, bcz u showed weakness all the way, so he tried to stab it?

Viffer - I didn't see an answer to this. Can you give us any info on this (esp the table reaction when he split) and/or your thoughts regarding Ruffin? Do you think his eccentric table manners (e.g. betting out of turn) were sincere or some sort of gamesmanship (i mean it was like five times)? Had you ever played with him before and if so how have you fared?
