MySiteNowMupps
 
New player who has popped up playing the big FTP games recently. Seems to be doing pretty well too. Also, that name
kicks ass imho.

Any info on this guy? Has he been discussed already? Apologies if so.

It is short for "MySiteNowMuppets" I imagine; "muppets" is a fairly-common (British I believe) slang term for like, idiots. And so it's a taunt to the other players, since the guy just showed up out of nowhere and started playing 200-400 PLO and such; he's telling them, FTP is MINE now, I own it.

That's my interpretation anyway. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I played him 50/100 HU the other day. He wasn't very good, albeit a limited sample. He seems to be more of a PLO player.

I understand this, but I don't understand why this is awesome. In fact I'd go as far as to say I think it's the opposite of awesome.

NLHE I assume? He seems to be playing more PLO, which I suppose could mean either that PLO is his better game, or that he is simply a gambollahollic degen LOL. We'll see, he's been up several buyins the few times I've watched, but that obv doesn't mean anything.

He's playing Antonius HU 2-4 PLO right now BTW.

*EDIT* Whoops, that was actually 1-2 they were HU at, and Mupps sat out pretty quickly. So we know he has a functioning brain then at least.

It's awesome in the same way "TryHarderFish" is awesome. It's a good taunt, no? What don't you like about it, the word "Mupps" in there?

Re: MySiteNowMupps
 
It's nowhere near as catchy as TryHarderFish. And if you have a name like that, you really have to be able to back it up or else you just look a bit silly. Antonius could pull it off.

Total guess but I think Ram Vaswani.

Best game PLO, also plays NLHE all at high stakes.

'Muppets' is also very much London slang, which is where Ram is from. I choose him over the rest of the Hendon Mob because he's played high stakes online before.

can't be ram, he's a FTP pro so he plays under his name in red.

it's not like people practice game selection against Ram Vaswani [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] like they do Phil ivey at 300/600 NLHE or david benyamine at 1k/2k LHE

Huh? When has a full tilt pro not played under his own name?

ConstantineX 03-15-2007 06:36 AM

David Benyamine - magicpitch.

Daddy Warbucks 03-15-2007 06:53 AM

Re: MySiteNowMupps
 
Except he's not a full tilt pro.

fsuplayer 03-15-2007 08:15 AM

Re: MySiteNowMupps
 
i think he's referring to when PA played on roland dewolf's account. not the same thing though obv.

David Benyamine:

magicpitch1, ballsrider, MySiteNowMuppets, davidbenyamine1

Orlando Salazar 03-15-2007 10:05 AM

Re: MySiteNowMupps
 
False. Ballsrider was playing at the same table.
Also, is it possible he came from Doyle's room?
Who was a big PLO player there?

Stinger88 03-15-2007 12:50 PM

Re: MySiteNowMupps
 
mysitenowmupps sat out vs me hu at 50/100 fwiw, benyamine wouldn't do this among others

GiantWalleye 03-15-2007 01:55 PM

Re: MySiteNowMupps
 
Kinda off topic, but does anyone know where Ram Vaswani got all his money. I think he won a WPT tourney, but was playing high stakes before that. Where did all of the money for these high limit games come from in the first place? I have never been real impressed with his play from what I've seen.

fearlessfil 03-15-2007 07:14 PM

Re: MySiteNowMupps
 
He used to be a snooker pro, not sure if that's where he got his cash from tho.

Ivey broke ram playing golf?

supposedly $900K loss and they worked out some deal so Ram could cover.

The biggest PLO game on Doyle's Room is 10/20, I played it all the time before they cut off US players, and there were not any regulars who fit this description.

Talked to Patrick A and David B tonight and they said no one knows who MySiteNowMupps is.

NNNNOOOOONAN 03-20-2007 11:19 AM

Re: MySiteNowMupps
 
what was HE wearing?

Orlando Salazar 03-20-2007 12:03 PM

Re: MySiteNowMupps
 
Doesn't god wear a white robe (Bellagio bathrobe that is:)

On another note, we can confidently deduce MySiteNowMups is either from england or austrailia. Moreover, he was likely a live pro before turning to online poker (because he plays omaha, not NL). How many big winning omaha players are from england and who are they?

moving shapes 03-20-2007 12:07 PM

Re: MySiteNowMupps
 
I think he does play NL. Saw him playing yesterday.
