PocketFives.com: You’ve had a lot of success on Cake Poker recently. What has prompted you play there more when you could be heading to sites like on PartyPoker and bwin?

Felipe Montenegro: Small fields and weak players is the perfect combination for making lots of final tables and getting scores. Also, the structures on Cake are pretty good and the players are so bad that you always get spots to chip up and get your chips in good. PartyPoker and bwin structures are not as good and the players are a little tougher. There are a lot of Euros on bwin and on PartyPoker, the structures are really fast and there’s a lot of variance.

I try and take advantage of bubbles or weak players too often sometimes and end up donking stacks or giving chips when I shouldn’t, but I’ll fix them soon enough. It doesn’t get me in much trouble against donks because I eventually get them, but the better players do get me sometimes.

PocketFives.com: Who is the best No Limit Hold’em MTT player right now?

Felipe Montenegro: I don’t think there is one player who I could say is the best like you would in tennis or some other sports. I think there are a lot of great players. There is a select group of 50 who are at the same level and whoever is catching cards at that point will probably win.
