Chatted w/him at Cardrunners party in Vegas near the height of his popularity ('08?? at RIO). He was cool, down to earth. Would do again. We were scared to approach Cole South. LOL at us.

Cole seem to be a pretty cool guy..met him at the WSOP 4 years ago and we talked briefly about stuff like cardrunners which I was a member of...told him that I learned a lot from his training videos and etc...
"for every interesting person you meet at the poker table there are 10 selfish, degenerate, and despicable human beings that you will come across. I met quite a few people that I hope I never have to interact with again. "

5 years old that quote and still rings true today.
I played a $1.10 Double-or-Nothing sit and go on Carbon last night and shipped AK vs AQ all in pre and the guy got trip Qs on the turn - so sick FML - it was just sick, is this a level, pre flop range merger ^^^^^ in before spam Musubi
On a side note, Brian Townsend´s Cardunners blog is easily the dumbest blog I´ve ever read lol
Love all the bitching about running 2 buy-ins below EV over 200 hands and those posts about how he has mastered PLO (after winning like 30 buy-ins at the nosebleeds) are just comedy genius, especially if you know what happened afterwards (pretty sure he has had $5m downswings on both the sbrugby and the Brian Townsend account)
I knew about the hand where he bluffed before I made my post but obv it's just one hand of many. However, from reading the blog it seems like him and Bobby were not in fact HU so I suppose that makes it less likely there was something fishy going on. Thx for linking that btw gregorio.
ie. not HU.
iirc it was either a 3 handed game (aba + Bobby + Sammy + Sam Farha) or 4 handed (same guys + 1 fish) he made the decision to bluff all streets before the cards were even dealt and was unlucky to run into Baldwin's nut flush?/straight?
