    This guy is a fuking clown! I've seen him on twitch playing poker. I'd punch his lights out if I was at the table with him.

    That would be the guy. I saw him on twitch about 3 weeks ago. He busted a 25/50 game. Didn't have any $$$ left and tried pawning off his watches and cell phones at the table. It was pathetic. He was calling everyone bitches and just being an asshole.

    Most poker players actually have strong ethics and morals and conduct themselves as a professionals. After all it is considered a business. Its unfortunate that there are scumbags out there that give poker players a bad generalization.

    stevebets, I walked thru Bellagio room yesterday. Man, there is some $$ in that room. Guys stacking up $4000+.

    I've been in enuf rooms. I'm 100% under the impression that many guys win consistently over the course of the year. I'd say that the winning players know w/ clarity who they are going to win money from. IE, they can spot the fish.

    vivid, nice job. I still play like an asshole sometimes.

    Just bounced out w/ QQ on a 10-hi board. Guy bet into me twice on dry board. Should have read it and laid it down. He had 44 w/ 4 on board.

    Laying down an overpair not ez. I'm trying to get better. Here's the tell that I'm trying to develop:

    * If a Villain's bet increases exponentially...beware. A pre-flop $2 bet that is now a $50 bet = Loch Ness Monster. Sometimes have to make big laydowns.

    In this instance, I was a dummy. Should have called once, seen one more card and dumped it. Would suck to lose 1/4 stack, but would have still been in tournament.

    vivid, a good player develops an ability to read thru the backs of cards. Should have a very good idea of what your opponent is holding.

    And JJ Gold...as I said earlier, fk-off.

    How the hell is he owing this money to someone? He must have gotten on a loosing streak and got so many bad cards and gambled.
    I will always and forever say that all in is for poker freerolls only, but looks like he doesn't follow that rule!

    He wouldnt of gotten away stiffing any italian or vietnemise books at woodbine or niagara.

    Could just be talking shit about the guy. I dont know much about him or poker scene guys anymore

    JJ is right and i dont say that often most of the "poker pros" making money off endorsements all the others are not liquid as they seem to be

    About 10% in any room are winning the money. The house takes their cut and everyone else breaks even or loses.

    And you’re right being successful is all about knowing who to play pots with and who to avoid.
