Re: Noataima
thank you for taking the time to respond. Your biting wit is commensurate with your elite mod status.
Some folks had questioned how exactly he could donate so much, was simply providing an example. |

[/ QUOTE ] i don't think that i've ever seen anyone question exactly how he could donate so much. he plays poorly and plays high stakes in short handed games against the best players online. i don't think anyone actually wonders "how a bad player plays bad," they just play bad. mostly i hear it has something to do with repetitively putting in more money when you are behind than when you are ahead! omg a really bad player playing against really good players drops lots of buyins! omg. |

Re: Noataima
Noataima is probably an online version of Larry Flynt- some guys just have a lot of money and don't mind losing it to great poker players. Hell, I wonder if it *is* Larry- someone ask him some porn trivia questions.
As far as the hand posted above, with my standard disclaimers of being an admitted fish, I wonder whether a lot of guys wouldn't call in that situation with top pair and a good kicker. I see lots of posts hailing top players for making a "baller call" with a pair of deuces in similar situations, so is it really stupid for Noataima to call with top pair? |

Rigel,
Getting 40% of your stack in of with KQo is generally considered sub-optimal. |
