1. The Golden Rule

Even Zare admits "The Golden Rule" isn't completely water-tight, but more like a rule of thumb and a very valuable one for beginners. It helps them avoid mistakes and helps them improve their win rate in the long run.

If you have any questions different to the ones we asked Douglas aka pzhon in our interview, go ahead and ask him in our forum. He will be more than happy to answer, especially if the questions are related to his video premiere: "The Golden Rule".

2. The Holy Bible

justkyle88 wonders how many PokerStrategists have actually read the bible. He feels like he has arrived at a stage in life where he should start believing in something. The 21 year old is looking for a meaning in life and might find it in spirituality.

That is why he is now asking fellow PokerStrategists if they have read the holy book and if they gained anything from it. After all there must be something to it, otherwise it wouldn't be the "best ever written novel of all time", as our PokerStrategist put it.

Have you read the Holy Bible

3. Multi-Tabling and its effects on your win rate

blackops888 is curious about the advantages and disadvantages of multi-tabling regarding win rate. Is it more important to play on many tables in order to play more hands per hour? Or should you pay full attention to only a few tables, and pick up valuable reads on your opponents so you can exploit them?

He does not understand how players keep a certain $/hour rate when they are playing up to 24 tables. What do you think? Do your earnings increase alongside the number of tables you play? What's your personal table limit and why?

Is it worth playing 12+ tables at once?
