i dont know, i dont really separate poker from all other advantage play, booking, hosting, its all the same vehicle in different shapes. I am a multi millionaire, i dont care at all about big poker games or tournaments unless i can get the rake.

dan blizariain and greg mueller seem pretty strong. the poker world isn't very big or fit in general.

(in NLH bobby hoff was doing a lot of stuff before anyone else he obv faded at the end, in PLO pat walsh seemed to make more really great plays than others, ive always like bryce yockey as one of those dudes who's just sort of expert level at any game you can invent instantly)

I’ve been banned at least a half a dozen times by different life loser mods. Never by sklansky or malmuth they always unbanned me because they knew I was a real OG who provided great content.

You find a DeLorean and set the year to 2002. What site could your conscious let you represent. A small time skin hoping to get bought out be bigger network, but with the freedom to represent on your own terms. Team PokerStars, nice steady pay but they put you to work and you might have to toe the company line. Team FTP, collect massive checks and have unlimited borrowing power knowing full that the site can't afford it. Is UB ever an option?


follow ups, how foolish would you have to be to take online poker serious today and not be using a RTA or some sort of computer assistance.

Is cheating and scamming +EV in poker.


edit final follow up. All The Young Dudes, Cleveland Rocks, Once Bitten Twice Shy, or Golden Age of Rock N Roll

In your opinion, what’s the best location in the world to play poker?

Do you ever see yourself giving up poker for good?

Most complete poker player/gambler you’ve ever met? Ie, someone with all the intangibles, skill, socially adept, smarts, looks, etc.

Do you think live poker will see any boost with all the cheating/RTA allegations surrounding online right now?

If you could go back and do things differently, what would they have been.

Do you think if you were born 18 years ago that you'd still find success in this field or would have gone in another direction?

Limon,

You ever get to play in Molly's game in LA or know people who did? Stories if you do? What do you think of the movie Molly's Game?

What do you think of Billy Walter's advantage plays in sport, stock and golf betting? In his book, he claims to have team up with Phil Mickelson and claims Phil has bet a billion dollar in sport betting and lost 100 million. Believable? Mind boggling numbers.

You say poker players prey on the weak. Do you believe professional poker is immoral? Can someone be a pro and still be a good person?

Do you ever feel guilty for playing / running games?

Do you believe that whatever "entertainment value" pros bring to the game justifies the cost to the losers?

Do you really get drunk playing or is the booze just for show?

Your advice has contributed to me going from wage slave to more or less doing whatever I want. So, thanks


Any thoughts on taxes? I pay, but it makes me nervous that my evidence consists of stuff I wrote in a notebook and because most people think it's impossible to make a living off gambling.

Any cautionary or exemplary tales?

Should you park some loot off the books? In gold? Garbage pail kids?

Hi Limon!

Rank their intelligence from highest to lowest

Feldman, JJ, Doug Polk, Bart Hanson, Vertucci.

Why do you not play deep stacked and why do you not play long sessions? Is it just for comfort reasons? Personally, I would like to have everyone covered in order to potentially stack anyone. I remember when Bart had you on early you said you liked to buy in for the minimum. and jam against weak opens iirc.

Thanks Limon. Have really enjoyed following you throughout the years. Got three for you:

1) with you current poker knowledge, if you could go back in time and play Stu Ungar at his peak, would you be a winning player against him in HUNL?

2) I believe you said for the robbi/garrett that your stance was 80% there was no cheating. Has your stance changed?

3) Best piece of advice to get better at live poker?

Appreciate you Limon!
