BRYN KENNEY - Page 4 - Poker News - News, Views and Gossip

Act like a degen. Constantly try to spin it up to the next level. When you fail and busto just borrow sums off of your friends and peers that you could never repay without spinning up again. What could ever go wrong?

Some of you might be interested in this, recent Q&A thing done with Bryn:

(full disclosure - I was involved in getting this made, but don't want to come across as some kind of shill; just wanted to share in case a wider audience would be interested!)

Bryn is also adept at applying maximum physcological pressure to opponents in his poker game. He can often get his competition to lay down the superior hands, by playing on their fears and instilling doubt in their minds.

Bryn is an expert at totally mixing up his pre and post-flop play. It is extremely difficult even for people who play with Bryn on a regular basis to put him on a particular hand. Put Bryn on a hand? Think you know what heâ€™ll do? Can you bluff him? Will he fold, call, raise, re-raise, all-in? Good luck to ya. Here a just a few plays Bryn has actually made...

Raise 50K pre-flop on 88
Raise all-in on 6-2 offsuit after a 300 pre-flop raise
As chip leader in 1K game, raise 475 on K-7 offsuit, then call an all-in with it.
As chip leader in 1K game , re-raise 2400 after 450 raise with pocket 8s on the bubble
Raise all-in on A-K on the bubble
In a 1K game on the bubble, raise all-in after 600 river bet by another player into a $975 pot, with a possible straight and flush on the board
Win a $3,277,094 pot with 3-7 offsuit
Put his entire stack on the line 6 times in a row on the bubble. Like Stu Ungar, Bryn is FEARLESS, and knows how to put the other guy to a decision for his chips, rather than facing that same decision himself...
Play the absolute nuts to perfection to extract maximum $s from his opponent
Raise 15,500 pre-flop and lay it down after a re-raise
Shove all-in except for $1 and check all the way including the river and win the hand â€“ the other guy never put him all-in for the other $1!!
In a 5K heads-up match, call an all-in to win the game with two aces on the board, NOT holding an ace!

No suit guy Kenney is slapping everyone in the face. Like Muhammad Ali, Kenney is now bigger than the sport that he represents.

Any idea of how much of himself he has, and about who has other % ?

I remember Kenny smack talking Bonomo on Pokerstars big game and Negraneu was smugly asking him if he thought he was the best, well now he's passed both proving that being degen is obviously plus EV, all you have to do is play like a boss and run very very very hot.

In a Joe Ingram interview, Kenney said he never has less than 20% of himself. Here is the interview...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSqHs8RmFi4

This was done when Negreanu (not yet Bonomo) was still the all time money winner. He talks about how Hellmuth blew up on him during a WSOP tournament. He challenged Phil to a heads up match for 100k (which he claimed he always had with him in his backpack at the time) and Hellmuth shut up for life.

The thing about Kenney's confident talk is that he says it very casually. He is not trying force it in order to either motivate himself or to convince others. He just says it like he's ordering french fries. And of course theirs the laughter that actually tilts me a little.

Brynn's talent is undeniable--but can't stand the guy. Was glad to see him blow it headsup.

Nice suit btw.

GOAT status. It’s pretty cool that this is still true, and he hasn’t stopped going against the grain.
