The ramblings of a bitter old man who's pissed he couldn't win playing 1 table vs. opponents playing 12.

That's really what it came off like.

Makes me sad too [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] I watched almost all of Tuff's videos and he was a mini celeb in my mind...guess he has no love for the people that gave him his 15 minutes of fame [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

I don't know if it's been mentioned or not, but there are plenty of beatable american players, not to mention the rest of the world. Sure the games are tighter, but we adjust and move on.

Sorry to hear that you are leaving the online poker scene. Good luck in your future endeavours.

Almost every post you make is bitching about tight online multitablers and how it's not fun to play online because of them. But seriously what do you expect? Do you expect them to intentionally play badly? Do you blame them for trying to maximize their hourly rate?

To be 100% honest they don't give a damn whether or not you're having fun playing, they just want your money.

Sure this might not be 100% best for long term sustainability of online poker, but nobody thinks like that.

Also you are not a "pure" fish, you know of 2+2, know of poker literature and software, etc. The majority of true 100% fish do not.

And you wonder why Tuff Fish doesn't seem to give a damn about you?

OP's post is pretty spot on.

I am sort of enjoying the thought of no more Tuff_Fish whine posts on 2+2. Bye.

Tufffish has ammitted that he is a loser in poker
Most layers delude themselves into thinking they are winners
Every single thing in this post is 100% accurate whether you want to adnit it or not

For years we have all laughed at the fish- after doanting for a while there is no reason he shouldnt be laughing at us

I have made a ton of money from poker and now play 5/10 NL
I never thought I was that good , just that many players were horrednous. The games have become a lot tighter and i always played at sites with no 15 tablers with HUDS. Playing
at a table with 8 people like that is no fun and is a waste of time. He is absolutely right about that.

I am not knocking anyone who played a bunch of tabels with HUDS- we all want to make the most money possible. But they
sure as hell make the games dry up a lot faster and frustrate the fish (and winning players- we all wish that we were the only ones who had access to that type of software imaging how easy the games would be then)

I wonder how the people calling Tuff Fish a jerk would feel if Party Poker announced layoffs.

Sure Party schemed day and night for quicker ways to take our money, just like multitabling TAGs to Tuff, but at least they had the human decency to remind us to Enjoy.

Unfortunately I think this is probably the exact mindset of 99% of the US fish still playing online poker. The online game is pretty much done. See you at the casino.
