Of course. My first reaction was that you play much better than you post. Is that good or bad?

I was CountDoncula and am now RunGoodSr. I've only got a few k at 10/20, but I think a fair number of guys I played with a lot in the 5/10 are up in 10/20 now.

How did you choose the name RunGoodSr? It's funny because my younger brother is RunGoodJr (for obvious reasons) on Party and I was sweating him one time in a 5/10 or 10/20 6m and you were both at the same table.

Same reason I picked CountDoncula (2+2 poster Haupt234 is CountD0nkula). I'm not creative and hope to either tilt TAGgy players by picking essentially the same name or get people confused as to what my style is.

I obviously try not to sit with your bro - he's good - and the few times I did everyone at the table would ask if I was his dad.

Awesome, my brother will be very amused (he doesn't read 2+2).

What was his reaction? "Look at this goofball," or, "What a coincidence," or what?

I guess it depends, but it could be worse. I don't try and preserve or project an image of skill in posts (not saying you do, but I'm sure some do). I post for 3 reasons:

1) I'm bored, or 'feel like it'. (category 1 posts end up in general, oot, internet, short useless responses in strat forums...)
2) I feel I have an uncommon and nontrivial perspective on a topic that has not been voiced.
3) There's a good chance my current opinion is wrong.
4) I'm drunk or high. (This is my excuse for anytime I've come across as ridiculous, an [censored], or a ridiculous [censored]).

I hardly ever post hands that I know I played well.

It's taken me a while to accept, but I am a good player, and parts of my game are quite different from the norm here ( I am overaggressive, and get to SD far more often than a more standard TAG with my aggression stats would).

At 5/10 and 10/20 my overaggressive stylings cleaned up, but higher stakes I play more passively, as there are far more players capable of targeting exploitable strategies. ~2.5 AF as opposed to 3.5.

He was surprised you thought he plays well. You are probably way up on him. He owns fish and gets beat by TAGs. I'm working on teaching him about how to beat people who play the right starting hands still.
