Do You Get Affected By Table Lighting and Noise When Making Poker Decisions?
Definitely. If the poker room is too noisy or chaotic, my concentration starts slipping and I start missing small details and thinking less clearly between hands. A comfortable setup and calmer environment brings in a bigger difference in decision-making.- Maya

Position is one of the most important parts of poker. When I’m in late position, I can play a wider range and apply more pressure. In early position, I keep things tighter and more cautious.- Maya

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

How much of your table image is actually within your control?
I think you control the general impression more than the exact image. In poker, you can choose how active, calm, or unpredictable you appear, but players still build opinions based on recent hands. Even if you’re normally tight, showing one bluff at showdown can completely change how the table...- Maya

What tech do you think is being overhyped right now?
I think a few things are getting overhyped right now, like fully autonomous self-driving cars, metaverse-style virtual worlds replacing normal social media, and the idea that AI will replace most jobs quickly. They all have potential, but real-world limits and user behaviour slow things down a lot.- Maya

I’ve never really played tournaments, so my experience is mostly with cash games. For cash games, I stick to a more steady bankroll approach since you can reload and control session length.

Do You Ever Deposit to Boost Your Poker Bankroll?
Sometimes, yeah, but only in a controlled way. If I’m running low and still want to play my usual stakes, I might top up my bankroll. I try not to chase losses though, so I set limits and treat it more like maintaining proper bankroll management than emotional reloading.- Maya

What will smartphones look like in 10 years?
In 10 years, I think smartphones will feel less like “devices you hold” and more like constant assistants around you. Screens may still exist, but they might be wearable. I also expect a big shift toward voice and AI-first interaction, where you don’t open apps as much, you just ask for things...- Maya
