whoever thinks jedipokertrix is good:

I have only two conclusions to make:
a) he's not good
b) if you think he's good, you must also not be good

2 hands where he was likely tilting dont mean anything. jedipokertrix is 1 of the best regs on ftp msnl and it isnt even arguable

bertkt however is a very bad player

[MattC]

hmmm likely tilting, so one of the best regs has no absolutely tilt control whatsoever (i mean that jts is ummm prettttyyyyy bad tilt)? i think that in of itself makes him a bad reg.

if you want i can post many many more examples, shall i?

the reason i posted the 99 hand in particular is because i think it shows a very fundamental flaw of understanding in his game, because hes at best 50/50 there and at worst crushed.

i mean dont get me wrong, i dont think hes bad, but "good reg" i cant agree with.

[LucidDream]

yea, bertkc was 12 tabling all day and was at pretty much all of my tables it seemed. he was one of the easiest players in the world to play against.

[m3dude]

tilt shows a fundamental flaw in his understanding of poker? im sure ur right tho and no good player tilts.

who do u think the best regs are matt?

there's tilting, and then there's calling off your stack w/ J hi. slight difference.

[MattC]

first of all you are making the assumption that they are tilt. maybe (but maybe not) the jts hand was tilt, but i dont think the 99 is. I told you i can share more hands to further evidence my claim.

i didnt say no good player tilts, what i did say and also meant was that good players dont play when they are on this hard of tilt, that is a very simple skill that is just as important as any other skill in poker and wins (saves) you just as much money as any other skill (actually probably more).

I'm not sure if i'm in the position to say who are the best regs and who aren't, but i'm more then capable of spotting and pointing out bad plays, at least here and there, that good regs really shouldn't be making especially when they are fundamental.

OMG that name brings nightmares to me, he ran so sick hot against me in 1 session. He took me for like 13k at 5/10HU. He made a hand every time and I never made hands it was so annoying. But the whole time I'm playing him I'm thinking "he's so bad, I'm going to make hands eventually and he's going to pay me off" and I just never did. I had to quit before I went on permatilt.
