Default Boywonder - In The Cage 2/11/10

Boy, do you wonder what boywonder, wonders and once wondered?

I wandered into the Leggo cage and will be locked in for a few days, answering all your questions.

AeJones Had written an article in these forums about his turn c/r range and how it is VERY VERY small, if not non-existant.

Playing the stakes you have throughout your poker career how do to feel the turn c/r has been applicated by both yourself and regulars

--- I like you

Thanks so much for doing this!

How many sites do you play on? I also live outside the usa, so i have the opportunity to play on multiple sites like you do. Do you think that i should be taking advantage of that? I only play at FTP at the moment.

Does or did your fiance/girlfriend have any problems with your poker lifestyle? Given that you 'gamble' for a living? If so, how did you guys work it out?

Where do you think poker will be in 5, 10, 20 years time? Should the average regs begin to worry about their poker careers as the games get tougher?

After you review your hands (whilst eating breaky) and finish your first session. What structure do you have for the rest of the day?

thanks boywonder

do you think a midstakes NLHE reg should learn PLO?

let's say you have T9s/54s in the big blind - the button opens - what do you do?

1) button 3 barrels a lot
2) button plays very honest on the turn
3) button plays a solid postflop game (knows when to 2nd/3d barrel)

how does the situation differ, if you're in the small blind (assumind nitty bb and assuming very aggro bb)

is the swedish anthem the greatest on this earth?


please teach me a swedish sentence (i know jag älskar dig already!)

/€ what's the weather in stockholm like? is it worth a travel? did you learn german at school? (i know some of you do )

is it true that every swedish girl is blond, and has big breasts?

If he feels that he needs change, then yes.

1) 3bet / fold most of the time
2) 3bet / fold most of the time
3) 3bet / fold most of the time

With a very aggro bb I am folding more and defnitely never calling, with a nitty bb I am 3-betting more and calling 109s with a slight frequency.

No, it´s mediocre at best.

Det här är mina hörn / These are my corners.

Weather is bad in winter, awesome in summer, german we do learn but forget almost immediately after.

No, we have a little of girls that do not fit that description.

Hey bw

First off respect....

Just wondering how you approach your sessions with regards to the number of hands played in any single session....

Over the past few months iv been experimenting with 3 seperate 1k sessions per day and it seems to be doing v v v well results wise.Where as when i play for eg 4k in a single session i seem to zone out and suffer from fancy play syndrome.
Would you recommend trying to fix this problem when it comes to the larger sessions or does it come down to the individual and which conditions they work best under?

Thank you for doing this, boywonder.

Were you always focused and strong willed, or did you have to put a lot of work in to achieve strong mental and emotional control? How did you go about doing this, in any case?

Also, you said that most regulars have a strong post flop game, but very few of them actually play it. Would you mind elaborating on this?

Yo Ben.

A couple of questions for ya:

1) Favourite type of music?
2) You spoke of the importance of organisation and professionalism in creating an environment to put in volume. Ive never been a particularly organised person (although I have done well in school regardless); how would you recommend i seek to create structure in my poker life - so i can put in volume at the tables?
3) In the hand in your $200NL vid you talked about metagame in higher stakes. At what stakes did you find that metagame became a truly essential part of your game?
4) Do you ever play donkaments? If so, any big scores?
5) You have (as far as I have heard, read on 2+2, etc) come across as intelligent. What is your educational background?
6) Any tips on how BRM changes in terms of BIs in relation to stakes? By NL1k how had your BRM changed from say NL25
7) The sickest call you can remember making?

Keep up the good work. Nice first vid.

Tjena Boywonder! Kul med en svensk coach!

I came to Leggo because of you

Im living of of playing SSNL 6max. I dont really discuss the game with anyone, but find that I learn the best by single mindedly fokus on what I think is good poker litterature.

What litterature(if any) did you study as you moved up the stakes, and in what way did you use it?

Johan
