Default Interviewing Jeff "The Shrike" Henry
Jeff Henry has agreed to answer some questions for us. I want to send the questions away to him in the next few days.

Jeff is a premier online poker player, playing mostly on PokerStars under the name "The Shrike." Since most of the previous interviews have been with live professional poker players, I wanted to get someone who can relate more to all of us as an online poker player.

Please post here all questions you have relating to him and online poker strategy.

What is your strategy for the first hour of an online poker tournament? The middle of the tournament? The end (final table)

What i mean is how many chips do u expect to have and what kind of cards are you going to be playing and will you be loose/agressive or tight? Ty and gl man!

In the very early stages of an online tourney where you might only be starting with 1500 chips, is it a better strategy to play more pots with mediocre hands such as mid suited connectors, etc. and try to hit flops to build a stack or to wait for a premium hand such as a high pair and double up to build your stack?

What do you think is the most important aspects for doing well in large online tournaments?

Since it is a faster paced game and less possible reads, what do you use to give yourself an edge up on the field?

For someone that is good on making the money, but not so good on getting to final tables, what do you think would be the most necessary improvement?
