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

    I have set my bankroll rules and I always stick to it no matter how strong or weak an opponent is. The risk of variance is a constant. I have ran bad before against weak opponents. If the table or great, might stick around and play a little bit longer but there is no way I am buying bigger. .

    Why do you play tournaments or what do you like about poker tourneys?

    One thing that I love about MTTs is that one can start with a small buy-in and still has a potential of finishing with a big score. And MTTs has another level of excitement as every stage evolves with it's own general attribute. By the time you play to the final table, you are just playing with...

    How do you handle downswings without depleting your bankroll?

    I have always been a strong advocate of stepping down when your bankroll drops 20%. That's my own benchmark. I always review my hands to see if it is just bad play or bad luck. If my decisions were sold and the results were bad, I would surely know that it is variance. And I can't ever say that...

    Who will win the FIFA World Cup?

    This is a very tough call to make. England with Tuchel can just overcome their demons and win the world cup this time. Brazil wants to show that they are still a football powerhouse.

    What are some common bankroll management mistakes?

    I don't know why a poker player would downplay the relevance of setting stop loss limits. When the tide is against you in a poker game, it just makes sense to protect your bankroll and not try to win back your losses.

    I have cashed out from online poker sites just four times. And I used crypto to cash out. The minimum withdrawals threshold was just $10 and it was a seamless process. No other cashout option would work for me with online poker sites though

    It is true that Royal Flushes are unbeatable in poker, but they are just dream hands and don't really feature in poker strategy discussions. How many times do they even show up?

    Will Arsenal win the English Premier League this season?

    It would be like they are cursed if they don't win the league this season. Again, every other team that is supposed to challenge them are just flopping. They just can't mess this season's title up. The players have to push to the very end. And not slump around March like they always do.

    Mental Breaks

    One thing that I have come to realize in poker is that playing good comes from good thinking and not from rushing to enter the next hand. I always take breaks between buy-ins. Even if it is a very short walk, it always helps me to have a balanced mind before the next buy-in.

I called confidently, but before I could say "jack", my opponent flipped over a perfectly run-out straight. That was the worst times in poker...

    I have always been at peace with variance and accepted it. I have come to convince myself that a bad beat doesn't mean I didn't play well.
