I rarely rarely tilt anymore in any significant way so that's all I'm going to say about that. I assume you think that because I did some "non-standard" moves in your books, but keep calling me names in chat if it makes you feel better. Also, you're obviously running really well right now, which obviously makes any play I make against you look like spew.

These came from hands I was legitimately questioning, so if was obviously discouraging. But ultimately, even if these posters were just being dicks, I improved from being flamed.

The internet isn't always a friendly place, but don't give up.

There was a reason and it wasn't just because of the hands. There was an obvious bias and game going on and you can't deny it. It culminated with that goals thread where everybody jumped on the bandwagon of 'let's make fun of Abs in LC' and also miles posting some mock hands to see if anybody would respond to him the same way they do to me (they didn't).

I realize that and I posted in that thread too. Later on I thought it got a little carried away when even the non LC threads were starting to reference me and apparently how bad I am (e.g. I posted a hand asking for real advice and I get, 'time to move down again'). That's when I decided to leave for a while.

It was a bad test imo. The most people here have no clue how Abso plays or if he really is good or not. On the other hand most know who you are, so when you post a ****ed up everyone just assumes its a joke or level. Test would have worked better had you made a new account who no one knew

can you guys gimme a ranking on the following 10-20 - 15-30 regs.

Kindwarrior,K345,Jllama,nwooch,suitedkings1,acesda i,

Acesdai, and K345 seem to be the worse out of the bunch, just interested to see what yall think. I have the hardest time with Nwooch, he seems spazzy, but post flop seems to be near perfect from the few ( couple hundred ) hands Ive seen from him.

Suitedkings1 and kindwarrior are frustrating lags that have should a propensity to improve over time. Still slight losers in my DB.

JLlama is the best LHE player on the planet imo, or maybe #2 after hoss.

I think he has been in at least one DC video, not sure if he actually contributes to that site as I'm not a member.

some DC guy coached nWooch once in a video.

I thought JLlama was just an overaggressive lucksack. But given by his result he might just be way better than me.

How many hands do you have with this creature? I heard he once called a man with T4 high and scooped the pot and he once folded 6s full.

Meh, I've always thought that guy was just above the average handicapped person when it came to playing ability. He's #1 on my donator's list this year.

Also I'm pretty sure there was a NVG thread earlier this year where he was caught having sex with farm animals

Llamas don't associate with farm animals, I'm sensing some slander afoot.

Yeah, he has a comfortable lead. IMO he needs to read Phil Hellmuth's book a little more carefully
