What would you ask a WSOP Champion?

[odonob]

Do you ever wear your bracelet out?

 

[Tanamita]

Phil Ivey
I would ask how it is to keep concentration throughout the tournament, how not to make mistakes from fatigue

 

[nighton]

To negreanu:
How you become one of the best players in poker?
What things are needed to become a great player?
Do you learn from someone and if u admire and learn from him?

 

[iwont20]

I would ask Martin Jacobson on how exactly he used the law of attraction to his favour and what and how exactly he was doing else of this kind. I've always been intrigued by this, actually 😅😅

 

[valeski 28]

To Chris Moneymaker.How do you feel that you were the reason why there was a boom in the game?Was it easy to leave pokerstars?Would you like to play in South America again?

 

[Gh0stL]

I want to know about their roadmap to become a professional. I think this was good to listening.

 

[YLAN]

Would ask Scotty Nguyen (1998 wsop Main Event Champion): What do you think is the most important aspect of poker has you mastered that lead you to the championship?

 

[KUN_AGUERO_KROOS]

To Zeros poker, I would ask: is it really possible to become a Pro or winner in poker starting from the micro-limits with an initial bankroll of $0.00? responds with complete sincerity.

Is he a WSOP champion?

 

[machinm19]

I would love to ask Phil Hellmuth how he compared himself to Stu Ungar and if he feels like he needs to win another main event to be considered on the same level. I bet Phil would have endless stories to tell about his time in the game he has seen them all come and go.

 

[EmptyHouse]

I choose Phil Hellmuth.
The questions I would ask him are:
1. How many more bracelets do you think you'll manage to get?
2. Are you going to play poker until you die like Doyle Brunson, or will you retire from poker at some point?
3. Can you finally learn to control your anger at the poker table or are you too old for it? ;]

 

[Amigodzzz]

I'd ask Daniel Negreanu
how long it takes to learn poker and be in profits and what best stratigy for begginers , i think most people playing poker made bad startgys and loose

 

[Academico]

If you had the opportunity to interview a world series of poker (WSOP) champion, you could ask them a series of interesting questions to gain valuable insight into their experience and strategies. Here are some questions you might consider:

How did you get started in poker and what led you to become a professional player?
Can you share a memorable anecdote from your path to victory at the WSOP?
What do you consider to be the most important skill to be successful in high-level poker?
How do you prepare yourself mentally to face the pressure in a WSOP tournament?
What has been your most effective strategy for reading your opponents at the poker table?
How do you handle losses and losing streaks in poker?
What advice would you give to beginner players who aspire to improve their poker game? and more haha

 

[RENEY444]

I would ask what online poker sites have the best action and rewards for recreational players .

 

[skaterick]

if i saw Huckleberry Seed i'd ask him to call me if he comes to San Diego .

 

[billibooo]

I would talk with Doyle Brunson. Now I do not know how they will set up this interview BUT I am guessing the 15 minute time limit is do to how long it will take the hospital to revive me


So first <3 I would thank him for his contributions to the poker community, the effort he put into his life and to all the people that learned sportsmanship and play off of him.

1.It seems that everything you touch turns to gold. You have literally excelled at everything you tried, be it school, track and field, basketball, poker etc what is the top 5 differences between the mindset of a winners and the rest of us?

2.You play many different games but if you could only play one poker variant what would it be?

3.Did you grow up playing cards with your family or is this something you found on your own? And was there any slack given to you when you decided to play professionally?

4.Who/what do you fear the most when you sit down at the felts? Name a person or a style of play.

5.Exactly how much does the big guy owe you since you got there 4 months ago? This is when I would assume the hospital workers revived me and the question that would only be answered with a Doyle smile

 

[hutzpaf]

Two questions: how do you keep in shape? and who has taught you to read your opponents?

 

[AizenFalck]

I would ask him how many years it took him to be a champion, how much luck influenced his achievement and how much the study of poker influenced him, how many hours of playing he had to have to achieve that achievement and above all if it was worth all the effort he has made and invested in the game to get to where he is. Regards

 

[steve01991]

i would ask the champion if he/she thinks being aggressive all the time is the key to winning or if knowing when to be aggressive or not is better.

 

[LaNimmer]

I would ask Daniel Negreanu, When time is short do you still do all the math or do you use your intuitive gut feeling?

 

[Luka22guro]

You have been given the opportunity to talk to a WSOP Main Event Champion and ask them any questions you want. But you only have 15 minutes to ask your questions.

What poker pro do you pick, and what questions would you ask them?

Phil Ivey
What motivates you to play poker for so many years.
But how do you maintain such patience and calmness for so many years.

 

[Gavincwb]

My question would definitely be for JOE MCKEEHEN who in 2015 at the age of 24 was champion of the main event and eliminated the person I have as inspiration DANIEL NEGREANU, leaving him in 11th place and taking him out of the final table of that year's main event.
JOE MCKEEHEN do you think if daniel negreanu had won that hand you would still win the wsop?

 

[G0930]

I'd ask Fedor Holz what his first major purchase was after winning the title and if there is a poker pro he always looked up to

 

[PHX]

Chris Moneymaker 2003 Champion

First off I would like to know the history of his last name. It was such a perfect name for what he did that you would think it was scripted by Hollywood.

I would want to know about his thinking and feelings on the Ivy hand on final table bubble. How he felt when the cards turned over and he was behind and the feeling when he spiked the Ace of Spades on river.

Before the final table did you ever think you would beat the pros and actually win the whole thing.

How has your life changed since winning Main Event.

Did you ever think that you winning the main event would inspire so many players to play poker. How do feel about becoming a legend and an icon of poker.

Question for Damian Salas, 2020 WSOP Champion.
First of all, Damian, I am your compatriot and I have a lot of admiration for you and your life in general. I have seen many interviews, especially one that the Chilean coach Fabian Pichara did with you, which was highly productive for me at least.

In reference to a video in which you played a hand in an MTT where a well-known Spanish Pro player was at that table, a hand that I remember in which you made a 345 straight on the flop and your 67 in your hand on the turn, you went all in and She called and was lucky to connect on the river one of the 4 odds she had left in her favor and made a full house of AA333. In that hand later she makes a very ugly and mocking comment to me about how a Pro player wouldn't do what you did and so on, and then well we all know the story of the WSOP that you won and many more successes.

The question referring to this situation is: For me it was a clear play as a cash player, how was playing cash before playing professionally in MTT, various ???

A big hug Damian and thanks for responding!!!

Stu Ungar

If I had 15 minutes to ask a poker pro a question, I would choose Stu Ungar. I would ask and make him expound about how he managed to consistently make his opponents fold their hands and understand the thought process behind his strategy when convincing them to do so.
