Jared "RelaxedPrecision" Huggins on PS Big Game 7/11 - Page 3 - Poker News

No offense, but he played TERRIBLE! He will regret this for a long time. If you only get 150 hands to make a profit and you're staked 100k, with no recourse if you lose and free rolling, you can't just fold every single hand, every street..you have to take chances, go for it. Instead, he cares more about his image as a poker player, and avoids any situation to look bad with the most defensive style ever, He played to not lose, not to win for charity. Was rooting for him, that stunk tho.

Just a little tight and to be honest hes card run wasnt the best. I see only folding 99 on that J turn and folding to barry g-s 3bet with fives was little bad.
But thats just tight and not terrible.
What i saw he just didnt get hands.

Like i'm just saying, the Q10 draw for example, if you are freerolling, FOLD = -EV Have you ever see the movie powder?

Anyone else think Prahlad looks a bit like Johnny Knoxville?

that 99 hand is just so passive it hurts. flop is all unders and puts a fd out there, you bet it surely. hope he comes roaring back in the next few eps

i would have loooooved to see him raise the KQ on the turn vs esfandiari who is never that strong. His play is pretty poor.

If that's not terrible then I don't know what is. I think that this table would rather play against insanely weak-tight than wildly loose every day of the week.

What's worse is that with this structure you have to mix it up to maximize your profits (I would actually gamble like crazy even with 200K, as you only lose 100K in actual money if you bust out as opposed to gaining 300K profit if you double to 400K).

Jared seems like a super nice guy, but man was this episode painful to watch.

I remember Stapes said he really gets stuck into one of the cannons for their poor play, I'm worried its going to be Jared.

Don't think you can judge after just 23 (?) hands. Great episode though. Excited about the next one.

The commentary on this show is abysmal and the table talk is just annoying, mainly from Friedman.

just because you were homeless before doesn't mean you have to go to a tv show dressed as one. it's exactly the opposite, actually. you want to look as best as you can. hence the suit lol

He's a extraordinary hustler. He gave out free hugs, OMG everyone ship your BR to Huggins. What a bunch of suckers.

This is what he should wear.

FWIW, I have an undiagnosed dash of ADD/OCD imo, so it's hard to go through some threads, but this one is worth it.

Having been down and out (not to JH's degree though) I don't wish it on anyone, but if there is such a thing as karma, you deserve it

Come on man.... You see the pictures of his car & him sleeping in it, etc. The thread & videos he made.... He never begged for anything and glad I shipped him some of my BR...

He's a good dude, you should be happy for him... I know I am
