Chris \"Jesus\" Ferguson on the radio show Sunday
 
Looking forward to having Chris on the show. He is such a class act and a terrific tournament poker player.

One of the things I want to ask his is why he's not interested in playing cash games at all. Also, curious to see what he thinks of the media opportunites he's offered now.

Any questions you'd like to hear Chris answer?

Tuco.

I heard from Chris in person that the reason he doesn't enjoy cash games is that
"you figure out how to beat them" and then it's boring.

I think there's probably more to it as the biggest games are certainly very hard to beat.

I'd be curious what he thinks a good way to learn about game theory as it applies to poker would be. I'd also be interested in knowing how he makes
the most difficult decisionss. Is it similar to Harrington's method or different in some way?

Ask him what he thinks of Harrington's book. He endorsed 7 card stud for advanced players.

I'm sure he liked it. He likes everything. His review is on every copy of WLLH too.

Ask him if he's getting in the new found craze of writing his own tournament poker book.

And also what tournament players he fears the most.

Ask him if he still has ambitions to teach college(like his father does I think) some day as he mentioned or with the poker boom has that been put on hold.

Ask him what he thinks his chances are of ever winning the WSOP ME again in his lifetime.

Also, ask him how often he washed his hat.

Ask him how many hours it took him to cut a banana in half with playing cards -- and at what distance.

I seem to be slicing/fading a lot

Also, does he prefer Chiquita or a different brand? plaintains..

Chris' knowledge is in AI. I'd like to ask him whether or not he thinks AI (ie poker bots) will be able to beat out humans in this game.

I'll try and call in if I can, but if not thank you for asking.

Ask him how cold it really is in that refrigerator.
