Chipdumper - is this a concern? - Heads-Up No Limit Poker Strategy

Hi guys, regular mtt player here but just started playing hunl. I started playing 25NL a few days ago, so I'm bumhunting quite a bit. Just now this guy tswizzle sat me and I searched his PTR and he was down like 2k over 6k hands, csb lets battle. I looked a little closer though and all the losses come from 8 hands of HU 600NL. He's up ~1k at 50NL over 5.5k hands, so I'm assuming (could be a big mistake) that hes solid at HU.

Anyway, to the point. I believe he is trying to get action from people who take a quick look at PTR the first time they play. I asked him about it in chat and he said he was just bad at 3-6. Is this any cause for concern?

You can look at the hands where he lost the most;

He's clearly chipdumping.

Whether I did that to get reg action at NL25 or to transfer some cash I don't know.

bum hunting is worse then chip dumping. Basically your using ptr stats to get an edge on the game and he basically just used it against you so your mad now? So now hes in the wrong because your basically cheating to see if you have an edge on other players heads up? Thats the player really cheating. Bum hunting is a form of cheating in poker. We all want to exploit fish and make a living but its ok to play good regs to once in awhile. So say he is a good player so what? thats one player thats actually good against the 1000s you looked up on ptr to get an edge. so you complain over one player? Really he should be complaining about you. Your really not supposed to have any sort of information or stats on a player when you play them in poker. But sites like ptr and holdem manager ruined that. And then you put the guys id name up here and put him on blast. And your the bum hunter whats your id name? So we can all write bum hunter on your ptr account.
