Without this man/machine playing every 100PLO+ while also starting tables and closing out his lower stakes tables to focus on higher stakes tables when they get going and then closing those out to begin it all again, the PLO ecoystem on GlobalPoker would be much different.

Global should be paying this guy to keep as many games running as he does.

Seems to play very fast/instant as well.

A true legend of the mass tabling grind. I salute you CTB.

Yeah any other site would be giving him crazy rakeback/prop status. This is Global though heh.

ctb is my favorite player in the world. i love battling with him at 100plo (and 50plo!) while he's simultaneously playing 1k. i know that despite him playing every single table at midstakes and highstakes, he's still giving the same thought and effort into our hands as he would if playing higher. it's cheap practice.

Plays well & runs well.

Your playing online poker again? wb

I thought he switched to ACR - I didn't see him for 2 months. I recently quit playing online though to focus on live poker but he could be back.

Thanks!

Now if only there was one more player willing to start games we might see a significant increase in traffic.

I've spoken with Joe a number of times in chat. My being a bot was never a topic of discussion.

That's how I read it. Man/Machine always playing a zillion tables and seems to play very fast/instant as well. Sounds almost unhuman.

I haven't been on much the last couple months but I have been a high volume PLO player on Global for almost 2 years now. 40+ hours weekly on an avg of 6 tables.
I would love to see how someone can play that many tables along with multiple HU matches without any software assistance and minimal breaks. It could be that I am just getting old, but I can't possibly do his volume on Global given their software and the pace of play. Now add the fact that he is a clear winner and I don't see how your eyebrows are not at least raised.
You can triple the amount on ACR vs Global somewhat easily given their software, other software available and the speed of play.

He talks in chat way more than a bot would and deviates pretty heavily from solvers strategies. If I ran as well as him I would try and play infinite PLO volume. I remember asking him in chat back in January how much Adderall he takes a day and he pretty quickly replied. I've had a bunch of convos with him.

Idk it's possible he's just sick I can type fine in chat while 12 tabling but it's NL. I would play more than 12 tables but my arm starts to bother me...online poker is not like playing CSGO where your arm gets to rest or there's periods of doing nothing.

Not impossible he's using some software but with no HH downloads no way of verifying anything.

I have 12 tabled PLO on Global but can't keep it up longer than an hour or two. I also don't play HU or 3 handed when playing that many and chatting gets tough. I could do it consistently if you gave me a table ninja like program but given Global's software and inability to stack tables you have to be one sick beast to play such consistent long hours at that volume.

Given no rewards from Global and a decreased edge playing so many tables with no helper software, I have found it is not worth the extra strain. So besides being a beast from the sheer volume he plays, it is even more sick to be a big winner while doing it. Not an easy thing to do without some form of assistance software.

My hat is off to him if it is all legit though. Just let me see it in action on Twitch for a day.

ACR is a better site for high volume players because of rakeback, the beast, Holdem Manager and other multi-tabling features. He only came back after their software upgrade **** up. I would guess it is in his best interest to go back.

I'm sure I could've done it when I was in mid-20s without much difficulty. At 31 I have old man APM.

I can only play max two hours at a time but that's true for when I 4 table on Ignition or even playing videogames around 90 minutes I start wanting to take a break very badly.

I think we are just old and shocked by this young stallion's stamina.

BTW I totally think it's possible any reg has a solver running and maybe even some kind of script to input solutions. I'm not accusing him just there's really no way to know.

Ya nobody understood what Joey was saying cause this guys not good enough to be a bot. I played with him hes not a bot... He makes to many mistakes to be one. If Joey having a hard time beating him he better start making more mma vids for some cash flow.

I believe you. There are a bunch of NL regs I think are using certain software as there is nothing stopping it or a way for global to know.
