This is funny stuff. There was a third player just before this first hand, so this is the entirety of the heads up match.

He's very clever. After hours of folding his blinds eventually he'll hit a monster and raise. You'll fold and he'll make 10 bucks back. But on the next hand, If you he raises you won't know what to think! You'll probably fold. And he'll start his hour-long folding cycle just to set you up for his next 2 hand rush.

He's an evil genius.

Smithers, use the amnesia ray.
You mean the revolver, sir?
Precisely.

This was a ring game? Wow, I first thought it was a SnG and he was on post and fold, but since it's a ring game that's just amazing. He must've gave you in excess of $100 there!
