Dude, a true TAG would eat you for lunch. Your beating TAPs, a much easier target. All of these snide comments (and they are quite funny) are really telling you two things:

1. You dont have enough hand history or experience to believe that this style will work at higher limits. It does work for some VERY good players, but only a few.

2. The hand histories you've posted show you nailing total donks, which is great because that's what they're there for. Don't convince yourself that you are beating TAGs, though. These guys are quite passive. A true TAG would be shoving you out of the pot on the flop with second pair.

It's easy to get deluded when you are new to poker, and I still suffer from that affliction myself at times. Be happy that your doing well and stick to your gameplan, but don't convice yourself that you have this game figured out. Trust me, you dont.

Are you sure we want to ban OP? I think we should all kick in some $$$ and finance a website, videos, e-books, podcasts, etc., produced by Shy/Renereal/whoever he is. He can teach The Hyper-Flexible-Agressive style a whole new generation of up and coming online players. Imagine a whole tables of Flexible Aggressives trying to steal your milk money.

I, mr hombre, would GLADLY donate to that cause. However, based on his posts of his excellence and superior skill to even that of stu ungar, I would have to believe he could raise the money himself, and use it to create these promotional teaching products before blowing it all on coke, getting high, and making a 100000th username on 2+2....However, the idea of everyone being like shy scares me as poker would be ruined, you could not sit at a table without laughing yourself to death.


This thread rocks

We could create a competition where the winner gets to play Shy heads up.
Imagine facing the jack hammer of his unrelenting style? Withering under the pressure of his flop all ins with set after set after set after set after set after set.................

Is this the .01/.02 NL? I don't see how you could make even these buyins at 5x continuously. I can have good runs of 5x though, I'm sure.

i believe im the best micro 5.00 NL player in the world. my ability to change gears from HAG to LAG to TAG to Passive agressive to whatever and to be able to adapt at different tables is the best at these stakes. thats why i win so much down here. I dont believe i can win at higher stakes because i have no experience there so when that time comes will see.

SO you actually play more of a F.A.G. style? Flexible Aggressive.
