Hero ($250) - TAG.
V1 ($950+) - Late 20s asian (chinese?) american who has currently been transferred to Europe. He works in a Big4. I just sat recently on the table, but villain has been for about an hour. Everyone at the table is hating him because he is running super hot, even though he initially lost $600.
He has been playing poker as a hobbie for years in Washington DC, he said was on a $12k downswing last year and it took him about a year to get break even.
He is very aggressive, straddles a lot, raises his straddle from button, will bet HUGE and he is not afraid of bluffing. And obviously in a 1/3 mostly everyone gets intimidated by his aggressiveness.
V2 ($300) - Quite loose preflop, plays fit or fold when someone is very aggressive post-flop as well as pre-flop, he usually never bluffs and likes to play loose postflop by betting average hands like middle pairs, top pair weak kicker...etc. He will bet big and instantly when he has monsters.
