My Hero
 
I saw the person I want to be on the tables tonight. He rocked! He went from 25BB to 60BB in an hour. How did he do it? Super Aggressive pre-flop when he has good hands, very aggressive when his hand is likely to be the best, or when he has a nut draw. Now some of his winning was a little lucky. I know for a fact in the face of that much aggression alot of people slowed down. I folded two hands that I would have played if he was not that aggressive. Both hands would have developed into monsters!

Now I am not saying this guy was a maniac either. The hands he raised pre-flop were ones you are supposed to: KQ, AA, etc.. and he knew when he was beat and was willing to fold. He also was willing to put as much money as possible into the pot with his flush draws, and his likely winning hands. He controlled the table completely.

I am pretty sure his rating was Tight Aggressive-Aggressive. Just thought I would share.

You think he's talking about you, don't you TP? :p :D

Everyone needs a hero...

No no - not the guy who was losing all his money ... the guy who was crippling the table.

Aequitas58.

(Shut up, you beat me too it.)

ChipFish 11-19-04 04:25 PM

Outing
 
I really do not like outing people.. but I will give you clues. It was 5/10 6-Handed, Online, Empire Skin. The user name had Viking in it. If this helps than ok, or else I could PM you with it.

Aequitas58 11-19-04 06:54 PM

Why WOULDN'T you openly give his name? There is absolutely nothing wrong with that. If anything, it helps us out if we ever sit at God's table.

2Tone watched me play and commented on these forums about it - I didn't care.

Not a big deal
 
I just do not feel right about it personally. I do not think there is anything particularly wrong with it.. just do not like it. Just never sit with anyone with the word Viking in his name.. ha! Perhaps I gave the guy too much credit or he was on a run. PT has him more as a LAP! heh. I only have 53 hands to judge from, but no way was he passive! I have played LAPs and he does not fit it. He was definatly on a run though. 62% VP$IP Won at Showdown: 66.67%! 60 BB/100. lol. I guess I can not say definitively if he was any good, but I liked the way he played.

Nice, seems interesting. I woudl like to try to mode once, i am more of the tight, semi-agressive player, because I like to give a free river check to most people and call if they bet!

aw man ive seen him before too! hes pretty agressive i must agree, but tight when hes supposed to be....all around smart player
