The Camel is working on the interview now....Here's the list of ?s:


The Camel Interview


*How old r u and where u from?



*How long have you been playing poker?



*What did you do before you played poker as your main form of income?



*How did you get into Heads Up as your main game?



*How'd u get to such high stakes in heads up games?



*How does it feel to play for 1K per match? Do the swings get to you? How do u deal with them?



*Why don't u play the 5500s and challenge the big shots? I was told u mostly grind the 1000s...




*Is the high stakes HU lifestyle enjoyable or too stressful at times?




*Do you think HU will become more popular over time?



*What are your ultimate goals as a poker player?



*Are you worried about the future legality of online poker? What R UR predictions of the legality of online poker
in 3 years?



*Do you think the HU fish will hang around for awhile? Will there be more of them?



*Do you ever find fish at the highest levels of HU (5500s)? R they just rich guys?



*What are the biggest struggles you have had to overcome as a professional poker player?




*Do you still enjoy the game or is it just a job to you?




*How fast did you move up in stakes?



*What are key components of your game / lifestyle that make you a bigger winner than most (or more consistent)?



*What should us little groupies know or learn to get baller at HU like you?



*Do you have a baller house, baller lifestyle, moniez and biotches all day ???



*What kind of car do you drive?


*Who is the best HU-er online (excluding yourself of course)?



*Who is the most overrated HU fish online (excluding me of course)?

Nice set of questions. If you're planning to re-use some of these in future interviews and want some feedback, I would say:
-Ask more strategy questions, along the lines of the stuff we're always talking about -- e.g. playing out of position, how to handle certain villain types, etc. Of course, some people might be wary of discussing details of their game, but it doesn't hurt to ask.
-Get rid of the internet shorthand slang like "u" and "ur". It doesn't bother me, obv, but I know it annoys some people.

I'm curious to hear the response re: the future profitability of HU. It seems to me that the shark population is increasing exponentially -- judging from (a)the growth of this forum, and (b) the increasing occurence of positive-ROI opponents at the higher levels.

I'm not saying it's not profitable anymore -- it's just not the same as it was 6-12 months ago.

I just saw this after "The Camel" thread.

I would've suggest Genius28 or The Camel for first choices to interview.

Also YellowSub and -BBJ- would be two more that have not been mentioned yet that I would think you should try to interview.

They are both members of 2+2 and have both posted in HU forum. -BBJ- is NYCballer and TheYellowSub is self explanatory.
