Neverwin on 100/200 6-max early this morning (Feb 15) - Page 5

excel · #41 02-21-2006, 10:55 AM

I had 90k hands on KingKev 3 tabling $15/$30, normally played 1 table of $10/$20 as well.

His other main screen name was incog66

90k hands at well over 2bb/100
No table selection, no seat selection and could play very long hours, one time i datamined him he was playing for over 20 hours, sometimes sat out but never left the table.

If you want any images posted, feel free to request as i still have the database.

hi excel,

i agree with you that 50/40 is gonna be the next "optimal" style. kingkevin, edilweis, ibustchumps and neverwin are some of the biggest winners in my database.

the reason i think is bc this style gives you the best chance to take advantage of good variance.

limit holdem is all luck. its a total sham really. i anticipate most everyone on this site will be broke in a few years. variance will break everyone.

now, everyone has good runs. in fact, everyone posting on 2p2 is on a good run. so is kingkevin and neverwin. by playing 20-30% of our hands our ceiling is much lower than those other guys.

in essence, we are wasting our good run by not playing enough hands.

This might be the most ridiculous thing I've ever read on 2+2.

how many hands have you played? have you ever run at 30% w$sd for 10s of thousands of hands? i have and its absolutely impossible to win. i will have even worse runs. one of which will destroy my roll.

Of course I've run bad, but your logic is a total phallacy.

When we're running good we're supposed to change what makes us winning players to win more?

you have no idea what makes you a winning player. i contend that its getting lucky cards.

If TAGs or 30/20s or whatever have no idea what makes them winning players, then why even bother posting here? Why bother reading 2+2? If poker is just luck, then flush all your 2+2 books down the toilet and start playing every hand when you're running good.

Back to the original more interesting discussion, you guys are drawing sweeping conclusions from the gameplay of 3-4 players who play a certain style and are undoubtedly incredible post-flop players.

I think you guys are caught up in the newest fad of online short-handed poker and that only time will tell if these players are right or go broke.
