Seems to me those 3 about sums it up. Sometimes you have to bully in order to prevent being bullied.

It is odd that you can win the SD on so many all-ins with the rags. Normally to win with rags consistently, you need to see the flop and push people off their draws or call with your good odds (ala Gus Hansen).

I would like to know some more about your win-rate, average finish %, ITM%, ect. Just for comparison with us straight-forward players.


BTW nice run
Is that guy still part of the forum??
