i wouldnt advise backing to people as its highly volatile and a bit of a pain but its def a very good investment for someone with a lot of money and some partners to reduce risk.
i think buying up small businesses or investing in businesses with cash problems right now would be a good idea, but hard to say which ones will be profitable. real estate is pretty low now so that is probably a good idea as well

meh, sometimes people have a mental block that prevent them from doing well. once you get past it someitmes you can learn a lot more because now you understand what was keeping you down and youre more open to changing your game

logic. i use some of my gut feelings in logic, like past experiences and such, but the way a person plays and how they played this hand matters more to me than a bad feeling

because you can win with protoss and be slow. my apm is prob really around 120 when its not my first game back, and multitabling is a joke. i can easily play 20 tables. id say 25 tables equates to 75 apm

If you could play HORSE for your entire roll heads up, which high stakes player would you choose and why?

1. blue moon or yuengling. mixed drink, i guess gin and tonic, white russian
2. jiu jitsu is really fun. watching football or baseball
3. i keep my nose out of politics
4. i shared a planeride with jenny finch who is one of the best softball players in the world. heres how that exchange went down:


5. ive met a lot of pro/famous poker players. the funniest experience was probably erick lindgren saying he reads my blog, thinks i have a lot of issues, and asking me to draw an mspaint
6. hmm i stopped playing bw for the most part after i failed to qualify for wcg 2004 online. there was an online ladder, top 8 made it, i think i got like 11th. there were 2 or 3 hackers and 2 or 3 guys that let better players play on their account who finished higher than me. after that i didnt play a lot anymore.
7. no other games really. went through some little phases with chess and bridge but never serious

ty for doing this daut, i'll try to think up some questions but i'm a huge newb

Fulltilt or Pokerstars?
Jessica Alba or Britney Spears (in their prime)?

since pca i think ive made about the same playing as i have staking

not a gambler by nature. have only played blackjack once, dont play craps, roulette or really bet sports. have bet mma a few times and i was a huge fish when i was doing it. maybe ill bet that more now that im a bit more knowledgeble in it

Yea well probably not, but I think Fisheye is about as active as Thorladen here at lp.

1. hard to say. i guess id say mark hunt cause when you are that accurate with punches and have the best chin ever you can really stand in there and take extra aim
2. a few years ago crocop. now its hard to say cause theres so many random k1'ers that fight mma. of the strictly mma fighters excluding guys like semmy, kid, etc id have to say anderson silva
3. fedor probably. arona is reallly strong as well.
4. bj penn. ill take winnin them fights by dominant position over aoki or nog. and a guy like maia doesnt have the striking to setup his takedowns as well as bj does, or the strikes on the ground to give his passes more umph, but maia is def very close.
5. gsp
6. miguel torres seems completely invincible based on height/reach/skill advantages, way more so than any other champ

well i wouldnt call it a boxing match considering i have no striking experience but id spar with you/try to learn from you

still have some nitty tendencies and will always have the big fold desire within me lol
biggest nit now is probably either doomer, ket or joe
hari could be ok in mma, obv needs a lot of work on ground game and his chin is kinda suspect so i dunno if he would be the best choice from k1

well thor still posts some hands every now and then, posted his video with roman after losing to nazfish hu and used to post a good amount of threads and never saw fisheye post much since he was maybe a 3/6 player

Hi Daut and thank you for going into the well, here's my questions:

- How much luck do you need to win a tournament depending on the field: 500 people, 1k,2k,5k+ ?

- Do you advocate playing tight nowadays at the start and open up progressivly OR be more agressive at the beginning to build a stack fast/bust early if things don't go your way. How did you run during your PCA victory (decent, jesus christ mode, poorly ?), did you have a plan or just improvised, what was your bluffing frequency by then (i've seen your heads-up and you picked a couple of spots to run sick bluffs) ?

In what form of NLHE do you think there is the most money to be made? Full ring 6-max HU etc...
