Hes a charlatan. What he does is really not much different to selling ointments or oils or crystal stones that dont work to pensioners for exorbitant prices. And everyone calls people like that scumbags.
Don’t they offer a 7 day free trial? They also have lots of YT videos. Seems like they’re offering a service and people are willing to pay for it.

U mad bro?

HUUUUGE difference; that's a terrible comparison.

Doesn't really change the fact that he uses fake terminology like "global range" to try to sound smart, but newbies won't realize that it's fake terminology. So someone does the free trial and hears him use all this fancy terminology and thinks wow this guy must be an expert, goes on to buy the product, and they only realize years later that it was mostly BS.

If you don't think he's a charlatan, what would someone have to do to be a charlatan?

Guy is a pretty good poker player, but now we know his character. Disappointing.

Probably be a charlatan. The poker world is full of them.

When I sit down across the table from someone, I can tell immediately if they have chips. I can’t tell what color backpack they may have put under their seat 12 hours ago.

What does them.being white have to do with anything.
The hats were created by a team in Boston in the 50s and the backwards hat part was first done by catchers so white ppl doing it seems pretty standard. No?

To protect the integrity of the poker community, I think you should publicly challenge him to a heads up match. I bet he’d do it for a tenth of what he played Airball for. We would all enjoy watching you destroy him on the felt, and take down his entire scam enterprise in the process. What stakes would you be up for playing him at? 100k?
Youre the kind of braindead moron who thinks you have to play in the NBA to be allowed to say "Player X sucks" arent you?

You can't even defend your own post ya clown.
Avoiding why you brought up white ppl wearing backwards caps and not everyone wearing them backwards looking dumb
People on here really just spout a load of garbage.

bc they look like ****ing morons.

happy?

lmao@you getting butt hurt bc i didn't respond to your post right away clown.

And for the record i've seen this a lot lately with white poker players not black Asian or Hispanic.

I'll try and answer your post faster next time so you're not quite as butt hurt. I don't want you going into convulsions waiting for a response.

MLB catchers wear snapback hats? hahhhaha good one.

Also hilarious to compare someone playing poker to a catcher turning his hat around so his mask can actually fit on his face. Maybe next time I'm playing poker I'll wear a chest protector catcher's mask and shin guards.

Yes it does look moronic but not just on white ppl and no I just think you should back up your slightly odd post singling out white players( Which is most of the people playing).

As for being butthurt . That's hilarious. You are here all the time so replying shouldn't be an issue unless your wanted to avoid replying.

A quick Google search of snapback hat history will tell you catchers were the first to wear the hats backwards and that they were first worn by a Brooklyn team in 1958 or so .

Just so we are clear about why you see it with white ppl alot. That's because they make up the biggest % of the player pool.
Surely you aren't really this slow

not really, the casino won't pay you if someone steals from your stack, or even steals your whole stack. Cameras are not there for you, they are there for the casino's protection.

Yea bozo and the next time I was in this thread I responded but you couldn't wait that long.

And no actually if you knew anything about baseball you'd know catchers were wearing their hats backwards under masks since they started wearing catchers masks which was well before 1958.but you're trying to sound smart while doing a quick lazy Google search while knowing exactly jack **** about the topic.

And no they weren't wearing snapback hats.

I have no idea what point you're even trying to make with this catchers stuff but it's impressive that you're also completely wrong about every single part of it. Good job.

For example this is hall of famer Mickey Chocrane who last played in 1937.
Notice his hat is both backwards and a fitted hat. It's backwards so the mask can go over it.
But please tell me more about this Brooklyn team in 1958.

not trying to make this is "about me" at all, but fwiw i was a bit fired up when i made my post in here. if i think something should be said but nobody will speak then i say it. i stand by it if the allegations are true; it's not something that we should let slide in what we do and it's "real world kill you" money. but i don't personally know anyone involved (nor was i there).

i legitimately love poker and have come to appreciate it as a competition more than a hustle. the negative aspects will always be here, and you should definitely protect yourself, but i prefer to exalt its positive benefits.

nobody asked me to write this; i'm growing and trying to be less of a psycho.

Global range can be used to refer to your range as a whole. One of the first steps of trying to play Gto is figuring out what your Global range does then deciding if your actual hand does it more or less

The range is already defined as the entire set of hands you can hold in a specific situation

The global part is redundant, but I wouldn’t describe it as made up. The impetus might be to stress that it is all encompassing.

It's not even close. Anybody can forget a bag. This guy is never going in a cab with 20k left on the table that someone walks by and takes. And zinno is never snatching 20k in chips off the table. This guy can't even prove 20k was in the bag. If someone stole 20k off the table it's pretty easy to prove.
Missing the point.

I am just saying that anyone at that level has left $20,000 on the table at the whims of convention and surveillance.

I am not saying one is more likely or more right or wrong, just that everyone at that level has done it.

I think you are missing the point as you appear to be the only one who thinks leaving 20K in chips on table is same as leaving 20K in cash in a duffel bag under the table

These things are not even remotely the same

You didn't say he sucks. You said he's a scumbag who knowingly scams people out of their money by offering a product that isn't worth what he charges for it. You have made clear across all your posts in this thread that you have no idea what you're talking about. And you sure do resort quickly to trashing the perceived intelligence of other people--whether it's the idiots and buffoons who are too stupid to know that Berkey is fleecing them, or a "braindead moron" like myself who points out the vapid nature of your claims. There is a name for this kind of behavior. It's called projection, as in taking your own insecurities, flaws, and deficiencies and projecting them on to others.
