    What Makes Some Players Bluff Too Often Even After Getting Caught?

    I think they are doing it as a habit. They might also have an impression that bluffing will give them an advantage in the game and might also be able to intimidate other players.

    Why Do Gambling Communities Romanticize Risk-Taking So Much?

    There is a mindset that says "no risk, no gain." I think gamblers too much fixate themselves on this mind set. They might be thinking, "I just need one good bet to make it big"

    How do you manage downswings without losing confidence?

    When downswings happen, I instantly move down in stakes so that I can protect my bankroll. I also take breaks so that I can avoid "tilt"

    Have you been so upset over a losing session that you couldn't sleep?

    This has happened to me a couple of times but that wasn't due to losing in poker but losing in casino games. I started with $100 and I lose all in a single session. It was so disturbing that I lost sleep

    How Do You Maintain Focus During Long Poker Sessions?

    Generally speaking, I do not spend hours playing poker, however, I have also spent a few hours playing a couple of times. When I was playing long session, I usually try to communicate with other people, especially non poker related topics to keep myself engaged.

    Can another player put you on tilt?

    Technically speaking, another player can put you on tilt but only if you allow this to happen. You shouldn't be carried away by what other players are doing.

    How do you deal with losing streaks, and what strategies help you stay resilient?

    If you aren't very skilled, you lose. If you are having a bad day, you lose. If you aren't skilled and at the same time you are also having a bad day, you will be on a losing streak. When I am on losing streak. I just stop playing for many days and return to the table only when I have recovered...

    How do players typically read their opponents’ tells during a live poker session?

    I am not very good at reading other people while playing, however, I try to watch their faces, body language as well as their betting patters.

    What are common mistakes you often notice by new or inexperienced players?

    Chasing losses and making decision based on emotions and not with logic are some of the mistakes made by inexperienced players. Some inexperienced players also are over confident.

    How do you deal with the "loneliness" of being a full-time online grinder?

    I don't play full time but I can understand about feeling lonely when you are full time online grinder. I work full time online and I sit before the computer 10-12 house every day. Since I do not interact with people, it feels lonely. One way I deal with this is getting outside whenever I can.

    Do you think mindset matters more than skill at low stakes?

    Mindset is important but I do not think mindset is more important than skills. I believe the best approach is to keep your mindset and skills in balance. Without right skill, how can you perform well with just the right mindset.

    What are the disadvantages of playing poker online?

    Internet connection is one of the major disadvantages of playing poker online, you need high speed internet connection without any interruptions. Online poker is comparatively fast, and if you are below average player, you will run into losing streak. This is another disadvantage.

    Have your account been frozen before?

    My accounts haven't been frozen. Most of the time account gets frozen due to verification issue. Therefore, I always do verification before I deposit my money. I do not want any troubles during withdrawal

    Do you think webcam tables would work for online poker?

    I wouldn't want someone to watch me as I play online. I have a lot of privacy concern, especially with using webcam. I don't think it is good.

    Should players that use a VPN be banned from poker sites?

    if the site isn't available in your region and you use VPN to bypass the restrictions, how do you suppose to withdraw your winnings? You need to do KYC if you want to withdraw, and using a VPN will make it difficult. I believe VPN shouldn't be used.

    How often do you play online poker?

    I used to play a lot in the past but not much these days. It is not that I don't like playing online but since I lose most of the time (because I am not very good at it), I started limiting my online play.

    Which team will you be supporting in the FIFA World Cup 2026?

    I like Barcelona and Manchester United but I don't watch professional football much. I like to watch World Cup and Euro Cup, sometimes Copa America. Football (or soccer, as it is called in the US), isn't popular in the United States, but the national teams, especially women team are pretty good...

    Do you have a pre-game routine before playing poker?

    I don't have pregame rituals when I play at home, However, when I play in the casino, I watch other play for a while before jumping into the game.

Life is like a game of poker: it is not about what cards you are dealt, but how you play them.
