Default How bad is this player?

6-handed 100/200. Other players seem reasonable and no one has gotten out of line.

UTG raises, MP 3-bets, CO caps, the player in question calls 4 cold on the button with 65o, folded around to UTG and everyone calls.

Flop: T 6 4r
utg check, mp bet, co raise, 65o calls 2, utg fold, mp 3-bet, co cap, 65o calls 2, mp calls.

Turn: 5 completing rainbow. mp bet, co fold, 65o raises, mp calls.

River: 2. mp bets, 65o calls and after mp shows his hand says, "I thought you had a 3"

65o was not tilting. How bad would you say he is? Do you think he could be a winner at NL or any other form of poker?

so who won?

obviously 65o man can never be a winner if that is a "regular play" for him.

MP had AA. 65o is a well-known pro. I don't see how anyone not trying to be terrible can play like that.

Everone in the micro-limit forum can tell you that calling with 65o on the bb versus a cap is a losing play...

I just don't understand how someone who shows such utter lack of any sort of good thought or poker skill can be a winner at NL or tournaments.

Mike is actually a 10,000/20,000 player who just cant take chump change like 100/200 or 150/300 seriously.

(dont think this is mike, since he's probably "on the record" as being exclusive to AP and there arent any 1/2 games there)
