You stupid SSNL [censored] in BBV will not have 1% of the success he's had in tournament poker. Of COURSE he has leaks, but who the [censored] cares when 90% of the poker world isn't good enough to recognize them or exploit them? Tournament poker is about taking advantage of the money that comes from weaker players that comprise 90%+ of the community, not playing unexploitably or without leaks.

1. Who cares what he looks like? This is a poker forum, not a forum on how to dress appropriately. Talk about his poker accomplishments (which no one can say is a random fluke).

2. He obviously has a lower education level than most, and this is reflected in this particular interview. Again, who the [censored] cares? Does the fact that he can't articulate his plays/reasoning take away from his accomplishments or ability? As has been mentioned multiple times in this thread, being good at poker is often an innate and subconscious trait, so while he may not be able to accurately verbalize ranges or something, he has played enough hands that he subconsciously understands what he's doing just due to a lot of trial and error. In addition, verbalizing something often takes away from the "snap"-decision process (some call it gut), because like it or not, despite all the analysis and work we put into the game, there will always be players that were just born with that extra "something" that will be better.

3. He's a genuinely nice guy, although he gets caught up in the heat of the moment and says brash [censored] while playing.


Honestly, I think that a lot of the elitist cash game players from MSNL (I'm looking at you Aejones) and lesser skilled tournament players who only point out donkish hands from Lilholdem are outright JEALOUS of the success he's had. It must burn you on the inside knowing that he's worth 5-10x what you're worth AND HE [censored] DROPPED OUT OF THE 7th GRADE. Boo-[censored]-hoo, keep posting hands where he 4-bets all in with Q6o and cry about how good he runs.

i'm also up roughly half a mill in cash games this year, but nice try at finding a way to back down without admitting you're just not that good.

You're damn right I am jealous that I am not lucky as hell like him, proud I have more skill though. And I know that one day it will all even out...

[/ QUOTE ]

No it wont "even out" you will never make half of what he makes in tournaments.

lilholdem is definitely a good MTT player. he def has leaks and opens himself up to being exploited by good players but he's 100% fearless and destroys bad players.
