Default Re: Jennifer Harmon\'s nose squinting

I've got to disagree strongly with what you say. EVERY evidence points to her winning her way up to the HIGHEST limit games in the world. Talking 4000-8000 blinds here, how many posters can play for those stakes. She didn't inherit her money nor was she supplemented by a really big tournament win.

The evidence is in the results.

We have no real evidence that she is either good or bad. Her chapter in SuperSystem didn't suck, but it wasn't particularly insightful. One could probably work their way up the limits playing like that. But lots of regular posters here play just as well.

Maybe she uses tells really well and benefits from live, but we don't know.

We have statements from other high stakes poker players saying how good she is, but these statements are worth nothing.

Moving up the limits at that rate and going busto several times is not a point in her favor. If most of the better players here somehow went busto, they would get a job and never have the time to play poker seriously again.

It seems unlikely that she is a fish. But I don't think anybody who hasn't played with her has enough evidence to know whether she is great or just meh good.
