I'm pretty sure folding Aces would have a pretty big dent in your WR whereas with 7-2 off you could just use it as your bluff hand and it probably wouldn't do terrible.

Hopefully Larson7... so I can claim to have helped 'create' his success

Has to be Starsky's Gran Torino!
24. Who is the best contributor of the year?
I always enjoys Gelder's posts, and Malcolm's. I guess it depends on your definition of 'best' (and I wrote the question so you'd think I'd know!). I think I'll go for mrsduck, for the breath of fresh air she brought to the forum.
25. How many poker sites do you play on regularly? (Names not required)
Just the one.
26. What is your favourite (poker) hand?
A10
27. I'd fancy my chances most against:
a) zombies
b) aliens
I'd kick a whole lot of zombie butt on my way out!
28. Who is the Sky presenter of the year?
Sarah Champion - I miss her
29. Who has been the best guest in 2014 on the Sky Poker Channel?
I have a soft spot for Stapes.
30. The IDCU Award! Who is the community contributor you miss the most?
He didn't say much, but where's Diminuendo these days?
31. I'd rather be reincarnated as:
a) Elvis Presley
b) Jesus
c) Ron Jeremy
d) MattBates
e) Stephen King
f) Albert Einstein
g) Phil Helmuth
I'm a massive Stephen King fan, but as far as leading an exciting life goes, I think it would have to be Elvis.
32. What is the best poker advice you have been given? (Thirty words or less)
Stick to playing chess
33. What is the average number of poker tables you play at one time?
Three.
34. Have you ever had a straight flush in live play?
No. A full house with pocket aces is the best hand I've had.
35. I'd rather be... Batman or Superman?
Batman is the cooler guy by far.
OBJECTION!
29. Who has been the best guest in 2014 on the Sky Poker Channel?
I have a soft spot for Stapes.
Stapes is an Analyst, not a Guest.
Nice try.
Tikay, you wanna pitch in with yours?
I'll try & give it a whirl tomorrow. Bear in mind I'll need to tread a little carefully with some replies. "Best Ch 861 Presenter" could get me into all sorts of difficult spots.......though to be fair, "Best Ch 861 Analyst" would be even more tricky.
Tomorrow, I'll try & do it.

I'll break the replies into more manageable chunks if I may, 35 Q & A's is too much of a "wall of text".
I should forewarn you, I'm famously tetchy, curmudgeonly & mardy before 10am every morning, so some of the replies may be a bit sharp, & I'll regret them later.
1. What is the most unconventional location you've ever played poker?
In a Palace in St Petersburg, Russia.
2. Who is the community player you would most like to have a drink with?
I don't touch alcohol, so it'd be a pot of tea. I'd probably choose my Plopper friends, they are all really decent people, & most all all, they take their bad beats like grown-ups.
3. Which professional poker player would you most like to have a drink with?
I can't think of any that appeal particularly. Queen Vicky, maybe, though I always get a little overawed when I'm with her, as she is so sharp minded.
4. Your time machine is broken. When would you rather be stuck?
a) 1899
a) 1964
b) 2073
1964. Oh my, I LOVED everything about 1964, it was a time when I was just finding my feet in life, everything seemed wonderful, & The Beatles "She Loves You" changed music, & "youth attitude", forever.
5. Which community player would you most like to play live in a televised heads-up cash battle?
None in particular, though if you forced my hand, "Macacgirl1" probably, as she EXACTLY gets "the spirit of poker".
6. What is your choice for Sky tournament of the year?
I don't play NLH MTT's these days, but the various "Rollers" seem, to my mind, to be "proper poker". (Reasonable stack & structure, no gimmicks).
7. Who is the best community cash player?
Depends how you define "best".
8. Who is the best community MTT player?
See previous reply, but this one is slightly easier, & I'd select someone like "Rainman", who works tirelessly to promote the game, & is a genuine "recreational" who understands why we play poker - for fun. There are many other such examples, including all those who promote the DTD Monday night trilogy.
9. For the rest of your poker life you have to either:
a) fold pocket aces pre-flop, or
b) play 7-2 offsuit as if it was aces.
I don't play online Hold 'Em these days, only 4 card variants.
10. What is the best user name currently active on Sky Poker?
Not sure about "best", but this one amused me. "TIKAYsucks"
11. Would you like the ability to change your user name - if so, to what?
No
12. What is your favourite colour?
No particular favourite, but if pressed, nature's favourite colour, green.
13. Have you ever played a genuine game of strip poker? (Any interesting stories will be appreciated)
No. I've played Strip Ludo though. Most of us did daft things when we were young & spotty.
14. You hold AA in the first hand of the WSOP Main Event. Six people shove all-in before you. You are the last to act. Do you call?
No
15. ...if you don't, how many shoves do you call?
2 max.
16. Who is the most underated player in the community?
No idea.
17. Dinner (and dessert) with Liv Boeree, or win a £1,000 cash pot from Phil Ivey?
18. Who will be the breakout community player for 2015?
He or she has not signed up yet.
19. Your teleportation device is on the fritz. Where would you rather be stuck?
b) Antartica.
Dingleberries.
21. What is your favourite (fabric) suit?
Mohair
Easy one - GaryQQQ's Results Thread. People like Gary MAKE poker Communities what they are. Those guys who come on here & only EVER moan & groan, every Post do my head in. Imagine having them as a next door neighbour.....
23. I'd rather own the 'striped tomato' from Starsky and Hutch or the 'General Lee' from The Dukes of Hazzard? (People below thirty, please use Google)
No matter how hard I try, I just cant bring myself to care. It's like those "In The Well" questions, "steak & kidney pie or pizzza?" Who cares?
24. Who is the best contributor of the year?
Again, define "best". I would not have any single choice, but my shortlist would include the likes of GaryQQQ, Rainman, MAXALLY, Aussie09, & ALL those who actually DO SOMETHING to help make the community work, rather than just snipe, troll & moan. I can name you scores of people who have never made ONE positive post about anything. I also have a lot of time for those who carry big burdens in real life - children who are unwell for example - but are always cheerful on here. Not going to name them, but they know who I mean.
