It's common knowledge that in deep NL you can call 3-bet profitable with any two, if you have position, play deep, and are better than your opponents.

No. you are blatantly lying and moving the goalposts again. Your exact point was that he not only crushes on the Stones live stream, he also crushes tournaments. Then when it was pointed out that his Hendon Mob results you quoted weren't evidence of crushing, you then lied and said your point was only that he's not a bad player that can't play tournaments.

Further evidence that you're still just a troll.

Thanks for calling him out, I also believe Washoe is a troll.

If you read more carefully he said if he would crush tournaments he wouldnt have cheated. go back and read exactly what he said. I just pointed out that thats nonense. U twisting things here just for the sake of arguing is just pathetic.

washoe,

Your posts in this thread have been low-content without contributing anything of value. (Eponymous is right on the mark here.)

Pointing out the "weaknesses" in the cheating allegations is fine the first dozen times it is done. Repeating it countless times after that becomes tiresome, annoying, and indistinguishable from trolling.

Please post better or a temp-ban is coming your way.

These types of warnings are typically sent via PM but I will do so directly in the thread today so everybody can see the warning.

this is when I simply sent the hendon mob info , ok? no more arguing?
it was just to prove his point wrong. and just a rough estimation. but you get my point he can play mtts. jeez wtf are we arguing here for?

ItS CoMmOn KnOWlEdGe, no sir it is not. As someone that grinds 2/5 30-50hours a week, I can tell you it is definietly not advisable to run a 63% VPIP in these games DS or not.

Any poker player knows Hendon mob results mean absolutely nothing. They don't take into account money lost just money won, for example I could spend 1 million dollars on poker tournaments and only win 500K. My total profit would be -$500k but Hendon mob would have me listed as +500k. So posting hendon results is a waste of time.

2p2er: Logical and sound argument based in years of experience and knowledge coupled with supporting evidence

PassiveIsBetter: No, the sky is green so you're wrong!

What is common knowledge is that you can win any given hand with any two cards. That doesn't make it profitable in the long run. You cannot profitably call 3bets with any two no matter the circumstances. So you're saying if you are a superior post flop player, you can call 3bets with 100% of all starting hands as long as you are IP and deep? That is utter nonsense and you have no idea how equity works if you actually believe that you can be a winning player in the long run by playing like that. Casinos run on the smallest of edges, the most popular games run on a 1%-2% edge, at least against the good and smart gamblers, and yet they still manage to make massive profits year round. Doesn't matter how good you are post flop, if you don't understand preflop you will get crushed in the long run, that is, of course, assuming you CANT SEE YOUR OPPONENTS ****ING HOLE CARDS.

Here you are blatantly lying again. Above is quoted his entire post. In other words, it's "exactly what he said."

He is not saying if he crushed tournaments he wouldn't have cheated.

What he actually said is that if he crushed tournaments it would work in his favor to prove he's not cheating. I tried making it easy for you to see, but the facts don't matter to you anyway.

And you're accusing me of twisting things? Who's pathetic? It's pretty obvious to everyone.

Could you show us who else propounds this "common knowledge" that you claim?

Like everything else you and Postle say, it is just stuff you make up out of thin air, and avoid the points people make to you that are too hard for you to answer, as you don't really know what you are talking about.

That's a lie. The point you tried to make is that Postle is a live MTT crusher. The truth is, you have no idea how much he paid in buy-ins to earn that $500K in cashes over those many years, and so you have no idea whether he's even a winning live MTT player, let alone a "crusher".

Days when Spirit Rock (Prahlad) was king of the hill many regs had like 0% fold PF 3-bet ranges deep HU.

They played differently than most these days. Were they bad? Not at all very good players.

I just can not understand hate against grinders. If you play and love it make 100k$/year is that somekind of nightmare? Only 300/600 crushers can be count into professionals?

Yes, yes they were bad. This is why I could give 2 ****s about mike postles tournament winnings in 2005, it literally means nothing.

I am professional poker player now and have played millions of hands. And you try to say lol you don't know anything about the game?

If you are not able to profitable call any two against maniac fish 500bb deep when you know he had AA profitable does not mean at all that everyone is as bad.

No. Poker is a game of adjusting your opponents. Best of the best are there for a reason. That is not, that ten years later they would have been fish. No they would have adjust.

If someone does not know Postle learned to play that time by learning what best players that time did.

Passive is better is pro?!?! WOW, what's up is now down, and what it is down is now up. By the way, I could break down strategically why what your saying is incorrect, I just don't want to give information out for free.

You are not pro and quite frankly you have derailed this thread long enough, if anyone else wants to argue with you they can go straight ahead, im done.

I don't get why everyone is so quick to condemn MP, he seems like a nice guy.

(I'm kidding, put away the ban hammer. It's a Bill Burr reference.)

In all seriousness, does anyone know if JFK or any other suspected co-conspirators have made any uncharacteristically lavish purchases since this started? If they're greedy enough to not punt a few times to keep their cover, I'm willing to bet they've been blowing it somewhere.
