His brother Capt. James T Kirk and Spock sold the USS Enterprise and made a nice profit from the Klingons. He stakes Matt.

If he's a plo crusher he might need to go back to basics of learning how to read his hand and the board. Got all in w him at 25/50 plo 5k each, we run it twice, i show my hand, and he says I win both, mucks his hand, then realizes he misread what he had and desperately goes fishing in the muck. Of course it's too late. After that he was so tilted he quit.

he can play those stats (not quite that extreme obviously) in weak PLO lineups and still be highly profitable. surely he will be spewing and losing plenty of BBs in spots he doesnt need to....but profitable nonetheless.

i do agree with you that he appeared to have no idea what he was doing in the SHR cash game though. everything he did was transparent, every bluff was awful, he never got value (except with AKo vs iveys QQ when they ran it twice and he luckboxed both, but thats not really "value"), and he started steaming like a total NL amateur. i bet the wait list for that game got big real quick, despite the stakes and players at the table. all it takes is one steaming mega fish to make it juicy!

Could just be another viffer - spewy ****** but gives so much action that he gets into super soft line-ups and has decent live reads.

Quite obviously not a good player by online standards but live is weird and players with bad fundamentals can be very successful. (Even Trickett has bad fundamentals)

Also plo variance is lol.

So I don't think it's impossible he did grind up a br.

i think comparing kirk to viffer is unfair, viffer was playing crazy loose maybe image building, this let him winning huge in the tv games when he run like god. i mean if johnny chan had the same cards as him, he would not have been paid enough.
kirk, i would say has no idea about poker.

What are you guys going on about? The guy enjoys poker, and he's a lot of fun to watch. Isn't that enough?

If you haven't noticed he has pretty noticeable tells as well.

Robl was telling a story about when Kirk was awake for +40 hrs when the game he is playing in breaks... In strolls in a fresh Phil Ivey and Kirk challenges him to play hu. He obviously isn't the brightest crayon in the box who makes very -ev decisions.
This sounds a lot like PerkySchmerky too.

BRO. Listen to me. This is from a reliable source (pro who can play that high). That game was INVITE-ONLY. You could not "get on a list" for it. And MANY pros wanted in that game once they knew how weak some of the lineups were. But they couldn't "get themselves invited". Some of the episodes lineups were tough but some were paradise juicy.

Please don't disparage the Viffer. Viffer is ****ing Isaac Haxton compared to this idiot.

Maybe for you it is. We appreciate SKILL. If you put 9 donkeys playing $1000/$2000 NLHE and stream it - I'm not watching. You probably are.

I would agree that Trickett is a very unorthodox player. Which he needs to be, he's a nose bleed cash player and there are so many levels being played with each player that would make anyone's head spin.

I used to think Trickett is super good. Then... I realized he's not. I think he needs a soft line up to do well. Give him a lineup of guys like Haxton, Polk, Seiver, Jungle. They will eat him alive.

I watched this guy play at Star City about 5 years ago. I was completely broke but decided to go with my mates to Star City to watch them while they played. Ended up seeing a 3 handed 200/400 omaha game with Matt that was on a table next to the rope. I ended up watching it for like 2-3 hours lol They each had 100-150k in front of them, but the game was surprisingly stale. I only saw like 1 big pot the entire time that it involved Matt (Kirk) folding the second nuts on the river to a $30k bet into a pot of about $70k. He folded and showed his hand - the guy that bet the river was like "what the hell, how can you fold that?". He showed Matt some much weaker hand which he thought he was betting for value.

Not much else happened, except I do remember one of the guys asking Matt how much the monthly allowance his parents give him is lol..
