Yeah, one might be willing, almost, to think that if millions of players try to mimic her style and lose that perhaps, just maybe, she's actually doing it a hell of a lot better than them.
Again, not that I know much about her, but it's such a terrible article that I want to rip it to shreds.
And it's not like you have to watch much high stakes poker to find someone like Dwan making these kinds of seemingly insane plays. But would he dare write an article about how Dwan sucks? No. Because every muppet with a TV wants to hug Dwan's nuts.
My real point being about durrrr being that plenty of people watch, admire, and respect (he's just the obvious example off the top of my head, I really don't want to look like I'm a fanboy) his style. And he is at least strong evidence that you can play hyper-LAG in the right spots and be successful.
Seems like he went for what he thought was an easy target thinking people would go with it. I'm pleased that most people just see it as a lame hatchet job mixed with bouts of gibberish.
If you disagree with hands someone's played, talk about why in your blog. But going off on a "Godammit I hate these LAGs making crazy shoves!" is only a slight rephrasing of "I hate playing fish they don't respect my raises".
