    What is your happiest moment as a fan this year?

    I guess the blue jays making it to the world series would be my highlight as a fan for the year. I support all Toronto sports teams.

    Small Player Fields Vs Big Player Fields

    Smaller fields are easier to cash/win, but tournaments with bigger fields have higher payouts, and usually pay more spots.

    Do you prefer 6 max or 8/9 players per table in MTT's?

    I agree on having more time to build strong reads. However, with only 6 players at your table, it's a little bit easier to develop better reads. I don't mind 6 max, but only when the blinds/levels are slower. 8/9 max will always be my preferred choice for tournaments.

    Common mistakes players make in tourneys

    Emotions definitely play their part. I try to work on keeping my emotions in check, and don't let it affect my decisions even when I'm frustrated. It's easy to tilt players that cannot control their emotions.

    Do you consider bankroll management as a skill?

    Bankroll management is 100% a skill. A lot of players cannot manage their money properly, and don't have the discipline for it.

    Do you set limit on your winning streak

    Whenever I'm on a heater, or a winning streak. It motivates me to play more.

    What's the most effective way to build a bankroll from scratch?

    You would have to start by playing freerolls. Once you accumulate $5, or $10 from freerolls start at the lowest stakes, and work your way up. I recommend 55 cent buy-ins, especially if your a new player. Learn to dominate those stakes, before you move up. I also recommend getting good at one...

    What percentage of your bankroll should you risk on a single game or tournament?

    It honestly depends on stakes, for micro-tournaments, 20-25 buy-ins if your playing tournaments. I recommend once you reach higher stakes to be even more strict on bankroll management, 50+ buy-ins to handle variance in poker. Discipline is key, and trust in the process.

    What is a bitter lesson that you’ve learnt with bankroll?

    You will go broke, if you don't follow bankroll management. There'll be times where you'll run good, and I've ignored bankroll management in the past, more than I would like to admit. The last few years since I've been more strict on bankroll management. I haven't experienced a losing month...

    How do you handle downswings without depleting your bankroll?

    I take mental breaks. I only try to play poker when I'm in the mood. Sometimes I battle through it, but I remain discipline with my buy-ins. I also won't play for than a few bullets/games if I don't start to win. It varie day to day, but ultimately depends on my mood. Always try to bring your...

    Hit and Run Players

    It's typically bad etiquette in poker to leave in a cash game immediately after you win a hand. I don't play cash games anymore, but I've done it myself(live) in the past.

    Learn about betting odds before you gamble

    Odds, and outs help you make correct decisions when playing poker. However, I don't always play by the book, and I pick my spots to make moves. It helps knowing the sports you're betting on, but I usually only bet on underdogs, or create a parlay with a good chance to profit. I prefer betting...
