I didn't notice that he said Elite. 8k hands a day I think. I get 1k a day and that feels like a lot.

BDK, it's possible you're right, but this guy does play a lot, which is what makes me think he's at least close to winning. I've got more hands on him than anyone else in my month-old DB. Perhaps he's just had a good month, maybe he's just like a .10 BB/100 loser who plays recreationally and has a lot of money. Maybe I have more hands on him than anyone else because he's one reg I'm certainly not afraid of.

I dunno, just looking for thoughts on him

Playing 20k hands a month of .10BB/100 at 10/20 is still making almost $2k a month if you include Supernova FPP bonuses.. not that bad if it's a part time supplemental income.

TV can be the only reason i seat down sometimes. I know i run very good against him but he's my biggest donator.
I think his two major leaks are:
Too predictable with his big hands b/c of the passivity pf and miss a ton of value.
I think the biggest difference between him and the standard 27-35/20-25/1.5-2.2 reg is PF.
Raises way less, almost never try to isolate even with super strong hands etc.

I can't say the post flop passivity is bad, with decent hand reading skills you can hurt the standard TAG/LAG with that style. He's a SD monkey too but who's not?

ps: No offense if you read this man, i'm rather new to 10/20 and do not have a big DB at this stake.

ps: TV plays much more than 20k hands/month imo.

Just some randomness here...
How long have silverlion and triplecreame been playing 30-60 and above. I used to lick my chops at the chance of being on their left. With silverlion being the better player imo.

I also can't decide if jarusso is a hit n runner or just can't play with more then 3 people at the table. Every session with him tops out at 40-50 hands.

vikesfan-playing alot of 5-10 recently (usually shorthanded)...meh?

Silverlion has been very solid as long as I've been playing with him

TV obviously doesn't subscribe to the 2p2 TAG or LAGTAG styles, but I think his postflop play is good enough and contains enough deception that we often end up paying him off when he has the best hand, because we are unable to narrow his hand range like we could against a regular TAG who has a nearly fixed opening range from all positions. You see a 32/8 and you think "oh well... he could have anything here" but TV doesn't seem to bluff that much.

I remmeber back when I first moved up to 5/10 I was thinking that the best player at 5/10 was silverlion.

Then he disapeared, but really he just moved up while I didint

That's funny. I use the bomb icon in PT to denote tilt monkeys.

does he ever play higher than 10/20? cuz ever since i started playing 15/30+ i don't have a single hand v him. could be a time-of-day thing tho.
05-15-2008 , 04:46 PM
I've played against him at 15/30 and 30/60. Probably just time of day.

Lol @sethypooh

"sethypooh21 is a Red Fish (Aggressive/Passive). Weak post-flop play makes sethypooh21 a losing player.

sethypooh21 is too passive post-flop. By rarely betting good hands for value, sethypooh21 gives other players a chance to draw out and then pays them off when they do.
"

"Strengths
It's hard to tell when Heisenb3rg is bluffing because Heisenb3rg is always aggressive. But when the money goes in the middle, you can bet Heisenb3rg has the best hand. (Ummmm No?)

Weaknesses

Heisenb3rg has very few weaknesses, but may benefit from switching gears more often. This will make it more difficult for opponents to get a read. Heisenb3rg may also get bored from winning all the time.

Advice
Heisenb3rg should invest in an elbow brace to prevent arthritis from dragging in all those pots.
"

at least the advice part is right

udontnocards is a Bomb (Aggressive/Aggressive). Most top poker professionals are bombs, and their aggressive play makes the table fear them. With Poker Crusher™, you know immediately what player types you're facing, thanks to an easy-to-read icon beside each opponent's name.

Pre-Flop Tendency:
LOOSE - The Poker Crusher™ software automatically color codes loose players in GREEN for easy identification.

Strengths:
udontnocards plays very aggressively and is often in control of the table. udontnocards wins most pots without even going to showdown, and gets paid off with big hands because other players simply do not he/she has them.

Weaknesses:
Playing so many hands often gets udontnocards into tricky post-flop situations where difficult decisions have to be made.

At least with regards to LHE...100% sure the formula the use is tuned for NL cash as LOL at me (or Schneids or Scary Tiger) being passive post flop...
05-15-2008 , 06:15 PM
pfff Don't be jealous bc we're all sharks or bombs !
05-15-2008 , 06:29 PM
i was actually quite disappointed that i was a shark, when i'd be enjoying much more respected company as a red fish or bomb
05-15-2008 , 06:36 PM
i did a thorough check and am quite sure the site is 100% accurate. Sorry Schneids.
