How on earth does this guy win? (low content rant)

two initial hands are nearly bad enough to make a thread over. Some of the other ones in here are certainly more indicative of brutal play.

rafiki,
go into your db, search for 'vmacosta', pick out the 5 spewiest hands you see and start a thread (that is, if you can handle looking like a prick). I prolly have done even stupider stuff than what's been posted here.

As have we all, but these hands are more representative of some then for others. If you were villain in some of these hands, I'd say "wow, VMA must be tilting to have played it that way" whereas for the subject, I'd be more likely to say "there goes Captain Overplay again"

I think he is a tough and relatively skilled LAG, who at one time I would be happy to sit on his left and try and take his money. While a lot of his plays are going to look stupid when he gets caught... many of his unseen "stupid" plays actually end up being quite good.

I do not think he is great and I wont go out of my to avoid him, but I also do not think he is an easy target. I think that you can find many that are easier, which is where I would check first.

For the record, I think hand 1 is retarded.......and hand 2 is good on his end.

Didnt someone make a huge compilation on winners and losers on mid- and highstakes levels some time ago. I recall that Reshef was no1 winner at the 10/20 level.
