For a guy who laid a cool million out in front of Ivey on HSP , Booth seems kinda freaked about getting stacked for $5K in the first hand.

He's just sick of being up a Ferrari, down a Ferrari. He just wants a bit of stability in his life.

So he's playing cheeseburger stakes.

Yeah . . . that's why.

When I was playing at the Bellagio in ... March? ... I remember a couple different dealers remarking on "how bad Brad Booth was running" ... it was kind of unsolicited. I think some players were asking about Bobby's Room.

I personally know Brad and yes he does run bad online, I've witnessed countless sessions getting killed by runner runner. However his game selection is not the best playing against Galfond, Aiken, Patrick etc.. He needs to just stick to Facebook and Twitter for his online use!! His strengths are best in live cash games were he can read and intimidate through his aggression- but he does not listen.

He's gone on record plenty of times about his losses online. He's a pretty humble dude imo.

Hardly any of it was his own money.

Even if he's a shark, he's still a fish. All sharks are fish. This is kindergarten biology, folks.

Welcome and thank you for posting a little ofyour opinion.

Just a tip for your future - Most people find it hard enough to beat Galfond let alone playing him twice or knowing who he is

He is not an online player.Just like many of you guys are not live players.That being said, he may be a bit of a fish online but so are most of us in the live arena.BTW,Brad is a very cool and humble dude.

im not doubting him being cool or humble. i always thought of him as a really good player and was really suprised to see people lining up to play him. ps im canadian and think of him as prolly the best player in the country besides negreanu.
