Wow conspiracy theory up in here.

I don't see how it's strange to see someone 10-tabling 10/20. Lots of people do 8 without difficulty, and I assume 10 can't be that much harder. As far as "bursting onto the scene", I played under a different screen name when I was at 5/10 (when Empire was still around). I see no reason why any other multitablers wouldn't be the same.

fukken - Thats a pretty good point. For someone that plays so many tables, it would be strange for him to clearly remember a single hand that he himself was not involved in. Still, with the huge amount of hands a multitabler plays, its not inconceivable that he had infact played a very similar hand, even though it was not that particular one. When you factor in that memory is reconstructive and incomplete (or better put, not complete), its still possible that its just a mix-up.

is it so uncommon that some of the top players at 10-20 in fact discuss hands with each other? its entirely possible that samo sent the hand to bld for thoughts, or something very similar. holla

Maybe samo sent the hand to bld to see how bld would react, so that samo could get a better read on bld's thought process.... thus allowing samo to play better vs bld. Holla.

the point was that he could have seen the hand and put more than 10 seconds thought into it, thus saying that he remembered it. but sure, what you said is possible too, but then samo would give off his line and thoughts, so bld would then play better against him, resulting in a counterproductive strategy, unless of course he edited the HH to show him playing differently than he actually would. theres always that. holla

enough of this pointless thread.
