Douglas "WCGRider" Polk vs Ben "Sauce" Sulsky - High Stakes HUNL Challenge - Page 30 - Poker News

HU poker is boring anyways especially between 2 winning players....it comes down to who avoids hitting 2nd best hands which is basically a matter of hand distributions and variance.

i'd bet if these guys played 100k+ hands the only winner would be the HOUSE

lollll. Clearly have a lot to learn about HU/game theory/edges. This may have been true like 5 years ago.

somebody must have told you what you think is important and it was downhill from there

WCGRider being asked to rate his skill level on a scale of 1-10:

He's actually pretty darn modest as it turns out!

He's a lot better now than he was 5 years ago though. He'd probably say 10 for every one now (and he would be right)

This thread is surprisingly anything but true NVG caliber AIDS. It's actually quite reasonable.

Really says something about the level of play demonstrated by Rider and Sauce when even armchair NVG HU experts such as myself feel unqualified to post our opinions.

Not really, my opinions are just as valid and important as anyone elses. I dont know how you interpreted my message like that. You are likely not very smart, are you now?
