I have played with this guy at the DoN's at Merge, and he calls anything whenever he has any piece of the board. He never raises that I have seen. He is very easy to play with and take chips from but I still feel that he is either a bot or that he is colluding with another player/players and dumping chips. I can't think of any other explanations. I don't think that its humanly possible to have a graph that straight and to lose $10k+ but still keep playing the same way everyday. Does anyone have any better explanations? Am I just being paranoid when I find a super loose passive fish like this?

I think that beuzz is clearly someone who is playing for the fun of it. He'll call down with absolutely nothing. Bots don't do that. If he is chip dumping, he is chip dumping to everyone at the table. People play poker for all kinds of reasons. He might just find playing poker therapeutic in some way.

My other thought on this is that maybe he/she is employed by Merge to make the games softer and therefore increasing traffic to the sng's. I really can't see how losing thousands of dollars on purpose can be therapeutic at all. Even donkeys win sometimes, and this guy loses every time. It must be that he loses on purpose, right?

I remember him from when I used to play on Merge.

You might have just posted his graph without sn as he is a huge micros fish and desperately needed in the ecosystem. Now his name is linked to being a horrible player on the world's largest poker forum.

Beautiful.

Okay, I guess nobody cares about this anomaly. It just seemed strange to me.

It's difficult to say what is what because we just don't know other players' personal stories. I know of another big losing player in the Merge DONs who is a quadriplegic.

I first started playing poker seriously a number of years ago because I had been run over by a car while bicycling and was hurt pretty badly. I'm 100% OK now but for about a week after my accident I played to deal with the pain since I refused to take any drugs. Poker actually did a good job of distracting me from both the hurt and my concern about my doctor's initial pessimistic prognosis. I lost a lot of my bankroll during that week but didn't really care. Poker can be a real catharsis for people experiencing a wide variety of difficulties.

Although on Sharkscope it looks like Beuzz loses everytime; he doesn't. I've seen him win. And I've seen him the chip leader, just not that often.
