plo8monster - First let me tell you I have really looked forward to this interview. You are exactly the type player i enjoy getting to know.
I consider you to have mad skills yet humble character, I do admire that!
So lets start with some general questions:
plo8monster -How long have you been playing at Betcoin, where were you playing?blingbling911 - I have been playing at Betcoin since August 2014. Before that I was playing at America's Card Room. From time to time, I will play at Carbon Poker.
plo8monster - What brought you here to Betcoin?blingbling911 - A couple things:
1). The fact they accept which bitcoin and that bitcoin in general is pretty anonymous.
2). Crazy fast cash outs.
3). The ability to play on WPN using bitcoin rendering other bitcoin sites inferior.
plo8monster -I see you are a double winner, playing both poker and sports betting, do you also use casino?blingbling911 - I try to stay away from things where I do not control the odds.
plo8monster - Do you play poker full time, as a pro or semi-pro. How big a part of your life is poker?blingbling911 - Recreational. i do not rely on poker as part of my income. To be honest, I enjoy playing a lot and I've used it to pass the time in the recent months.
plo8monster - How long have you played poker, do you put a lot of study into poker, reviewing hands, reading books, videos, and that sorta stuff?blingbling911 - Been playing since the WSOP boom in 2004.
plo8monster - Also i see you hitting parlays in the sports bet. You must really follow sports?blingbling911 - I love watching sports more than just about anything else. Parlays are a good way to make some good coin without having to risk so much coin.
plo8monster - You play ring poker, or primarily mtts, or do you mix it up?blingbling911 - Mostly MTT and STT player. You can find me donating chips at the ring games every once in a while.
plo8monster - Do you play live often, how seriously?blingbling911 - I play live which I enjoy more much more but only four or five times a year. I live no where near a casino.
plo8monster - I see you have been staking players with some success. I know it can be a lot of work keeping track of such arrangements. Are you aware Betcoin is building a system to facilitate staking within our forums. What type services, would you like to see us provide for staking. How can we help you build your stable?blingbling911 - I am. They need to have an escrow account set up. Basically what I would envision is the staker and stake'ee tell a forum community member what the arrangements of the stake are and the stake'ee cannot cash out until it is fulfilled.
plo8monster - I see you at so many final tables, i find it simply amazing. It appears to me if you make it to the money you final table the tournament. That to me is an indicator you understand shifting gears as tournaments progress. Do you have an early game and late game strategy, that you would be willing to share:blingbling911 - WPN tournaments are very different in the sense that there are three hours of late registration. I have a different strategy depending on whether I buy in towards the tail end of registration or not. In general I play semi conservative until the money and then play aggressive once I hit the money because you have to understand there really isn't any money until you hit the final table.
plo8monster - What would suggest for online poker players. I mean you obviously many years vested into poker and online poker. Tell us about it.blingbling911 - I would not rely on online poker to derive your income. You also have to remember to practice proper bankroll management. Also keep in mind that online poker isn't rigged and you see more bad beats than in a casino because you play probably 8 times the amount of hands in the same timeframe.
plo8monster - You have seen so much growth and changes here at Betcoin. What do you think about that (and thank you for being a big part of it)?blingbling911 - I'm very excited for what this site could be. Lets keep it up folks. But we need weekend support; it has to happen based on the fact that Saturday and Sunday are the biggest days for poker players.
plo8monster - I see you helping other players often, in chat or through forum. Our goal is to build a community that helps players, help players. Do you think the forum is helpful to you.blingbling911 - I do and I don't mind helping other Betcoin players out because I play MTT's where 98 percent of the players aren't Betcoin players so I'm generally not trying to take these players funds
plo8monster - I will close this interview this question; do you feel that Betcoin is unique and how so.blingbling911 -Very unique. Fast cash outs, no verification documents needed. Allows you to play on a reputable site as it's only bitcoin skin.
I thank you so much BlingBling911, You are a pleasure to play and visit with, and I truly consider it an honor to call you my friend.
Sincerely,
~~plo8
