    Do you prefer online poker or live poker, and what are your reasons?

    I prefer live poker over online poker. With live poker, there is greater excitement with real time pressure that live poker brings. If you are a very observant player, you can use the body language and reactions of the opponents to your advantage. That isn't a feature in online poker.

    I know that poker is a game of logic and having a high IQ would help with that. But beyond just high IQ, there is a big need for emotional intelligence and control to really advance in poker. I have seen very smart poker players that tilt very easily.

    Which strategy is Daniel Negreanu using to read opponent's hand so well?

    What I think Negreanu does so intensively is to study betting patterns, timing and body language of every opponent he is facing or likely to face. And there is a psychological leaning too in his ability to pick up very subtle tells. It is not magic at all.

    PayPal or Cryptocurrency?

    PayPal is not supported for receiving payment in my country. That's why I always stick to crypto. But if he client doesn't have crypto, I can find an intermediary to accept PayPal but I would always have to pay a fee.

    Do you prefer to be paid in advance for your online gigs?

    I personally don't prefer to be paid in advance for my online work. I love to put in my diligence, do the job, and you appreciate it enough to pay me.

    Why GGPoker Banned Final Table Chip Leader with $300k Going to the Winner

    That was the best move from CGPoker in the circumstance. That's high level cheating and it was just right that the platform should remove the player. I am rather surprised though to see the chip leader blinded out, but I love how they were able to respond and act quickly. That's ensures that the...
