I mean is he is TED FORREST. He has played in the toughest games in the world. I bet he's played with phil ivey on his left in nl? I don't think he gonna run because a stickman is trying to get position on him. And do you think he would play that high in the first place if he was scared of stickman? There were a few other guys there he could be scared of.

ok maybe he left because he was annoying him, but doubtful. This isn't some randon 10-20 fish who is gonna leave cause ontherail is bumhunting him. Its F"INKG TED FORREST! He prolly left becasue phil ivey called him and wanted to flip quarters for a million a flip and loser had to carry his bags at the airport for a week.

He kept moving around. St1ck kept following him. He's not scared, he just got annoyed or wanted to prove a point or whatever. He obviously has no game selection so I dunno why he'd be scared.

Don't know all the things stick has done to people. But i get the feeling like he is so disliked maybe because he isn't in the "group". I mean i'm sure he does some annyoing things. And i'm sure some in the "group" do as well. But he is not in the in "group"(not friends with them) of superstar online limit grinders. So people are frustrated one of the non group members taking money out of the pack.

From all accou8nts he has not ever cheated? I bet all these online superstar freinds couldn't say the same? Just like this skype group organizing the game. Chances talking bout hands sharing how to beat player not in pack. Sharing hand histoires deifnately done.

Stickman is on his own island beating the game straight up with no help from others at the table. I admire him a little. Not like the whiny nits who button steal me everyday then when i finally quit on my sb they cry cry cry. How dare i not give them the huge advantage of not finishing on there button everytime?

I'm not condoning stickman's ethical behavior as not sure of details of his practices. But i'm saying many of his haters do the same things but just do it prettier to be deceiving.

Does stickman sweat buddies when they play hu matches and give them advice(while playing) on how to beat opponent? Which would be essentially playing stick hu instead of who you thought you were playing? Probably not as by all accounts has not friends. Have his haters done this? Probably 99 percent chance.

How many of his haters take play in the same games with their best friends sititng next to them while stick or me or some other random player have to play them?

In some ways stick reminds me if i was a top winning player. Hated by everyone and called a cheat and button stealer. While all my, and his opponents, do worse and act like they above the grifting.

Have i ever assited another player playing in a hu match? No(lucky for them) Have you?

after 4 years you finally get some acknowledgement for one of your posts, be happy and leave it with that.

instead you see it as your chance to start a witch hunt against those german high stakes players. I mean, let's face it, you're just jealous about their success and you wouldn't give a **** about anybody getting cheated at high stakes LHE.

ted is definately the type of person who will take something like this(making it obvious that hes the fish and the reason the game is running) personally and quit when its done blatently

I reckon Ted doesn't like being the Patsy anymore than most folks would.

Whodda thunk it?

I wasnt attacking any germans. I am not general patton. I was more referring to the mid level high stakes players that bad mouth me. The ballzdeepx's, misterbunny, xerok, bananasonway, qsdaddy,johnnyrocket, honkeythedonkey type of guys.

They always quit games after their sb yet cry if you ever do.

Some of them play together in games way higher than they normally play. But only see them there when their best friend is in the game too. Xerok and bananas playing 100-200 together. Not saying anyone was cheating but weird that they only play much higher than normal when they play at same time. Then another time trying to play me 3 handed with both of them lol.

Johnny rockett and honkey now playing me hu 100-200 multi tables after normally only playing 10-20. I'm sure he uised only his money for the game. And im sure the guys that took pieces of him didnt watch/help him ion the game?

Ballzdeepx, qsdaddy,misterbunny, always quit game after there button/position but cry cry cry if you ever quit after your button leaving plaiyng the bb last.

They cry ethics yet are the ones taking advantage.

p.s. me and bananas are civil these days but had to be said. Hope doesnt change civility. Oh and not sayign anyone cheated but they have advantages whether they cheated or not. Meaning playing with best friend in game 3 handed 4 handed=advantage. Having buddies back/help you in a hu match = advantage. Always playing your button and quitting and crying when done to you so you always end up finishing on button=advantage.

Yet they all cry and people like me and stickman who never play in same game with friends, give advice/hand hand hsitory, call buddies to all get in same game/organise games.

What would happen if sites combined a maximum number of tables for each limit where a player sits themself with a short "time sitting out before you get booted off the table"?

The sitting out tolerance time/#hands could be a related of a player's hands played in the particular seat. So for instance if you played 50 hands in that seat, you would get to sit out for 1 orbit, otherwise sitting out -> kicked off table in 10 seconds.

Would some refined form of this idea induce more action?

You mean like a brick and mortar casino?

This has nothing to do with this thread. Keep your whining to your own lolthreads plz. We all know how you feel about the above mentioned players.

? i was merely responding to gentlemans post towards me.

How bout you minding your own business? I love u just wish you loved me?

I wouldn't want to be associated with stickman and I think you're doing yourself a disservice lumping yourself with him. Stickman's a thief, you're not. Stickman will wait til you have to take a leak or want a drink of water or something and will come to as many of your tables as he possibly can with the intention of stealing your bb. Not to play you hu.

I've witnessed him do this countless times over the years and have never ever seen any other reg do this ever. It's morally wrong and super obvious what his intentions are. He doesn't actively play the regs heads up that he's buttoning, he's trying to steal their money when they happen to be away from their computer. It's like someone stealing candy from a baby. If I were a high stakes reg, I'd just sit out or close my tables for a minute while I was away just to keep him from doing this.

Only time I'm gonna respond to this...it is nothing personal. I just think posting about the players you did in this thread wasn't right....don't want to derail it.

this stuff boggles my mind.. people have auto post checked while not at the pc then they get angry when someone comes and grabs the the free 50$ or whatever.. i mean really, how naive is it possible to be?

Stars auto posts you no matter what, so every single time you leave your computer for any matter of minutes you need to click sit out on every table, sometimes something comes up and you forget to do it. The problem everyone has is that nobody sits with you normally except fish. St1ckman will only sit with you and steal your **** if he sees a fish sit with you and you time out, so its completely and 100% obvious hes just straight up "stealing from you" As opposed to other regs who will actually sit with you on all the tables you are still at in order to steal it and then send back because they understand what is going on and they try to help you out.

St1ckman sees free money sitting on a table, he grabs it.

A friend and I are having lunch and have just payed our bill. We see a patron get up to go to the bathroom, leaving his bill payed at the table in cash. It's just sitting there. Free money, no?

I'd flip you for it.

hmm depends on how much money it is

just a little like $3-$6 somewhere in there I say go for it and let him, the waitress and God sort it out.

If it was a lot of money on a big bill like $100-$200ish I wouldn't take it.

WTF, you'd swipe someone's cash at a restaurant?

You're at a party full of strangers. You take $100 bill out and put it on the dining room table. Then you go the bathroom and come back 10 mins later. Is the bill still there?

The situation is amplified 100x when we're talking about a virtual table, that literally anyone in the world could access virtually anonymously. Only an idiot would leave their money sitting there unattended.

so you would take the bill? even if they knew who took it after the fact? everyone at the party would kick your ass. The exact reason St1ckman is friends with no poker players in real life, nor has anyone met him.

yeah, fair point

It seems many people play stakes too high for them and become fishes again, at least mentally.

Basic approach to the game like respecting your opponents and not taking stuff personally gets forgotten.

I mean lol the threads here are all about taking it way too personal.

"That guy's a scum bag I'll get him!"
"Yeah let's get him"

If you guys played 5/10 you couldn't care less and in fact showed emotional control and respect so maybe the stakes are too high for you.
