I thought he hasn't except for with friends like h2olga and people that bugged him a lot like 5 years ago (Indiana).

Email him though, his blog should have details (livb112 or olivierbusquet.com works).

any toronto hu sngers in here?

How should I handle a reg who keeps timing down on me? He doesn't sit me but he sits a lot of lobbies and he sucks, but I'm not sure I can beat rake against him when he takes every last second (and times out a lot doing it) on every decision.

Trying to set a fair line here:

What kind of odds would one get if he were to attempt playing 20,000 games in a month at the 100s and has to maintain a 1% ROI?

id say at least 9-1

Did pokerstars do a promotion with rewards for using the auto decline option or something? So many fish/people using it now.. sigh

Was gonna say 5 to 1 at best bit that is such sick volume that 7 to 1 can be in order. Past 7 is too much imo

Keep playing him as you normally would, if anything increase the frequency if your bankroll and mental state can handle it, as he's showing that you playing him is really making an impact on his confidence/decisions.

If you want to get technical, it's a math problem, identify the important variables (your $ per min vs him compared to the avg reg that is also playing the same time as him compared to waiting for an open lobby).

You'll have to make some assumptions, and if nothing sticks out too extreme over another option, play him when you feel good, don't play him when you don't feel good and you're probably close to making the best decision and avoiding terrible choices most of the time.

Edit: I would consider him timing down to obviously decrease your potential edge, but I think the information he gives about his likely lack of confidence/mental fragility more than makes up for this on average.

Of course, if people regularly timed down to decrease your potential edge my statement would likely be false, but I think most of the time when people actually time down they are upset/angry/otherwise in a negative mental place due to you sitting them (not always, but usually). You're usually close to or in the territory where he'll tilt and make pretty bad decisions that allows you to profit additionally. Other times, the opponent recognizes they are upset and quits. Either result takes him out of the lobby and increases the chances that your next opponent is a bad player.

Thanks, great post. Do you think I should contact ipoker about it or not bother?

i think its not humanly possible to play 20k hypers a month with 1% roi unless you play 7$ s

still pretty impressive asuming 666 games/day

which of you 6 star regs did i demo today in the 200 hu's tonight while i was trashed?

I avoid these guys...I mean, even if we have some extra edge b/c of their mental state, the extra time wasted playing thess fools for twice/thrice as long as a normal game is just not worth it imo...

As a tag-team, I'd see this possible. One guy, doubt it. 5:1.

Man, Lords of the Underground are one of my all-time favs. Respect yo, u know ur rap music history, dh!

Another rap group from same era that are very talented, u probably know these boys too:



And here's yet another group from this era that I enjoy:

Anybody interested in a toronto grindhouse at some point during the summer?

I don't know on which site you play, anyhow: http://www.husng.com/content/pokerst...all-strategies

ever heard of them?

5-1 seems too low to me. 10k in a month, maintaining a 1% ROI, is hard enough in itself. Double that **** seems inhumane.

i'll be free july. prolly gonna be up there then

thanks

11 billion to one

also montreal > toronto

Those two are greattt.

Dunno if you know this one by SoM, if not, I think you will like it:

i assume one can constantly 4table at the 100s, so thats 100 games per hour, thats 7 hours a day for a month. Think people are overestimating this

there is no way you can do 100games/hr 4-tabling at 100s even if the action is good

this

and this imo

i think people are underestimating it imo.

if you're not game selecting at all you can get 100 games/hour

7 hours/day is absolutely insane though. That does not include any breaks, you are making decisions nonstop 4tabling, don't think I could do that for 1 day playing winning poker.

Repeating that for 30 days in a row, impossible
