If yes, how can we get more people participating in mixed games?
If no, what prevents you from trying out mixed games?

Questions for Maureen Bloechlinger:

1. So many scary stories about disrespectful attitude were told by women working as poker dealers.
For example, Jan Fisher told how a player literally decided to put out a cigarette on her hand. There are many stories about verbal insults, about insulting the parents of such employees - in particular mothers. Please tell us what problems you faced when you worked as a dealer and is there any really terrible story related to the disrespectful attitude towards you at that time?

2. Globetrotting Poker Women will celebrate its 7th anniversary very soon. Please tell us what you have achieved in these 7 years and what are your plans for the next couple of years?

We are taking questions for Anish Patel through the 17th.

 

[mattiebumpo]

Anish, Have you found that research for your comic books has improved your poker playing? What is the most valuable poker advice you've received?

 

[Luvepoker]

Hi Anish

What made you decide to write a comic involving poker?

You don’t have much results on Hendon Mob. Are you more of a cash game player over tournaments and that’s why there is not so many recorded results?

 

[KUN_AGUERO_KROOS]

Hello, Anish.

As a graphic novel artist, what do you think about AI generated art?

 

[nasty bent gorilla]

Hello,

Are there particular philosophical/religious themes that recur in your novel? Did your upbringing influence them?

How do you feel about potentially inspiring a new audience for poker?

Cheers, nbg

[FRANCODAMI]

Hi!! Anish, good morning.

Thank you very much I got to know your comics thanks to cardschat, I congratulate you, they capture the essence of the players and what they go through when they are at the tables

Are you going to continue creating comics like this or are you going to change your style?

What made you do this book?

 

[Luvart]

-Question to Anish Patel:

Do you consider yourself a semi-professional poker player or an amateur and how much time do you spend on playing poker and writing comics?

 

[GARCIA PABLO DANIEL]

Hello!! How is poker considered? A game or a sport?

What has poker given you as a life experience?

 

[neptunas888]

Hello, Anish

when do you take a break from poker? how often and what do you do during this time?

 

[Debi]

These will close some time tomorrow so don't wait if you want to get questions in.

 

[CRStals]

For Anish:
Q: You came up with the idea to create poker's first comic book in 2008, but almost gave it up 7 years later. What happened in 2015 that almost caused you to trash this project, what helped ressurect it, and how did you get it across the finish line?
Q: If you were to categorize the final 9 of this year's wsop Main Event in your comic book, who would you assign to each of your characters, noting that the 2 characters that are female in your story would be male this year
Q: Speaking of those 2 females, why did you put 2 women at the final table and when do you think a woman will again crack the final table of the real main event?

Questions for Anish Patel:

---

1. Have you thought about updating your comics and introducing them to an audience of countries that are definitely not familiar with them? I mean, have you considered publishing comics in Russian, for example, given that there are a lot of Russian-speaking poker players.

---

2. Have you considered creating something completely new and involving readers in your comic as characters? For example, the reader chooses a character and in the process of reading a comic book, which has a common unchanging history, but can choose the options for his character's actions, which will affect the further history of the comic.

---

3. What are your personal achievements in poker?

Thank you again 🌺🌺🌺

 

[FastOne]

Questions for Anish:

Q: Stories people write go from being about them, either being an autobiography, semi-autobiography, desires, dreams they have, etc, and also not about them at all. What would you say Final Nine is for you?

Q: Are you currently writing another graphic novel? If so, is it poker related?

 

[jaymfc]
