baronzeus is in "the well"

[Allday Everyday]

Hi baronzeus. Thanks so much for going into The Well. I have some questions if you don't mind.

What does baronzeus mean? Are you the Stanford Welshing Pigeon? What is this?

How often do you play poker? What is the longest single session you have played?

I think I remember reading an old post that said you were currently playing TexasLimitKing. If you didn't, please disregard these questions. What limits did you play TLK? What was playing him like? How good do you think he was?

Who do you think are the best LHE players in the world? Online and live. Who are your poker idols?

Do crap players you encounter in high middle and high stakes games beat low middle and small stakes game?

What winrate do you believe is possible for big online and live games today? If a good online high stakes winner played a couple hundred K hands at 5/10 online, what do you think his winrate would be?

Do you think LHE is in any way a farce? Possibly in regard to results.

In HUHU games, what kinds of stats (VPIP, PFR, and AF) do gun high stakes players have?

WITHEG recommends default open-raising from the button with a certain 41% of hands (22+, A2s+, A3o+, K2s+, K9o+, Q5s+, Q9o+, J7s+, J9o+, T8s+, T8o+, 97s+, 98o+, 86s+, 75s+, 65s+) in full to 3 handed games. What do you think of this?

Have you read Mathematics of Poker? If so, what did you think of it? Did it improve your game?

What kind of coaching have you received during your poker career? How much did it help you succeed? How important do you think hiring a coach is to a poker player's development?

Many thanks for your time.
