At least your posts are balla. Tho I'm pretty sure Townsend doesn't use a 20-sided die (maybe Magic cards?)

My perception of how Brian Townsend plays:

1. Never play with more than 6 players in the game, lots of heads-up and 3 and 4 handed, and at most 6 players

2. Sail up into the highest stakes on a 10 buy-in bankroll, moving back down if you drop below 7 buy-ins at whatever stake you're playing

I'm 99% sure that I read in a interview with aba in a magazine that he didnt ever play without 17 BIs or better.
Where did the 7 BIs come from?

3. Never ever limp preflop, not even from the small blind. If I'm going to VPIP preflop, it's going to be a raised pot

[/ QUOTE ]

He plays in a game where he never gets a chance to limp preflop.

Alright, I read the whole thing this time. At first I just saw all the talk about the sub and I thought he was just trying to make a funny post that wasn't really working for me so I quit reading.

Good luck (if you don't post updates then it will suck again)

For my play I will be using a 20-sided dice, and every time somebody c-bets and I have nothing, I'm going to roll that dice, and if I roll a 1 2 3 4 5 or 6, I'm raising

[/ QUOTE ]

Why not just use a six-sided dice and raise whenever you roll 1 or 2? 6.66/20 > 6/20 anyway. Literally. Which is good because you want to foster a maniac image.
