Re: ***** The Well - El Nino 1 *****

- What are your long term poker goals? Do you think its a good idea to just consistently win NL50/NL100 @ 2-4BB/100 and not move up, while the money is good at those levels?
- Is El Nino a reference to the best striker in the world? aka Torres?
- Lifetime graph?

Re: ***** The Well - El Nino 1 *****

Thanks for doing this. I love seeing a well from someone I see a lot at the tables and in the FTP regs thread.

You play really tight compared to the more laggy style advocated by a lot of 2p2ers. You said you started out 11/4, so I'm guessing it's just kind of a personality trait? Do you ever experiment with a LAG game?

You start a lot of tables. Is most of your profit from playing fishy players HU or short-handed, or waiting for tables to fill without too many regs?

How do you deal with the different regs you see? Note taking during a session, reviewing hands after a session and making notes, poring over their stats? Is playing back at regs or specifically avoiding them a part of your game? Is most of the money at 50NL/PL coming from the fish, not the good regs or even the breakeven ones?

Anyway;
Biggest pot won?

~$9k at 10/20 back in the Pacific poker days

Most memorable hand?

Losing $5k at 10/20 with 99 to JJ on J9x

Should JT be England captain?

Yes what he does in his personal life doesnt reflect to his ability to be a captain

Re: ***** The Well - El Nino 1 *****

When you lost 5K to a set over set, how much (percentage) of your BR was hit?

If you were a 4pt winner back when you started, what would your winrate be today [had you not improved] ?
In the last two years, the average 50 player is so much better today

If i was a 4pt winner back then without improving i would think i would be a losing player today for sure, so many fish have left the game

Texas has better looking women but English women are nicer and more personable. Texan women are about what you can give them and are greedy
