Default Poor User Robusto??

How did he go from being a solid 3-6NL player to a winning 100-200NL without hardly anything in between??
Saw him on a couple of occassions playing 25-50NL when it first started on stars but i think he was getting crushed then.
Donkament win/or aba20 style robusto moving up...anyone know?

notes on Poor User from Pstars acct:

'cold called open push from UTG player for ful stack (100bbs) w/ QJo (UTG+1) 2-4NL fulring- UTG(beck_AA) had AA'

was funny in chat before the cards were revealed on showdown, he was like 'one time', then he splits and I go find himthinking 'buddy list' and he's playing the 25~50 game w/ H@LL, twin and rekrul

There's an interview with Poor User on LiquidPoker:

http://www.liquidpoker.net/informati..._PoorUser.html

I wouldn't underestimate him simply because he's probably the most humble high stake player I've read about. See for yourself. A good read IMO.

I find it bizarre how a player who has had a large amount of success with whatever stake he's jumped into gets criticized and made to sound like a complete fish.

If you guys think he's a fish, man oh man would I love to be that fish.
