I've played with Al before too.
That guy freaking lives there.
doesn't he sleep at the table between hands sometimes and the dealer has to wake him up?

[/ QUOTE ] Not this dealer. I've given him missed blind buttons when he nods off and dealt around him. I dealt him out for 30 minutes once and he never knew. On a side note he is a very good short stack NL player.

Yes, I've seen him dealt-out too.
Usually the dealer will keep giving him a few hands while he is nodding off in-between and then after a couple tries will realize that he's taking too long with has cards and THEN he will be dealt out.
Sometimes even waving off the dealer a little bit so he can sit there and sleep and practically drool at the table.
That's what I've seen happen with him a couple times I think.


I'm not sure I would consider him a good short-stack player though. I think I've seen him make plays that I considered pretty questionable.

The tale of him folding the JJ in the rebuy period is pretty strange.

Do others on here who have played with him think he is a decent player?

There's another hand that I played against Ahmad that might describe him better than anything else I said.

Pretty much everyone limped for the $2 and a guy in MP raises to 12. ahmad calls then it's folded to me and I call with 4s7s. The flop was 5d6d8x. first guy bets 30, Ahmad calls and I raise it to 80. First better folds and Ahmad calls. Turn brings a non-suited brick and Ahmad checks I go all in for maybe 150 more and he calls. The river brings a 3rd diamond and we both show 4-7.

Ahmad who in a friendly was was telling me I shouldn't have raised the flop. We talked a lil more and I told him I wanted more money but didn't want a FD to get there cheap. He basically said you have to gamble to win big pots.

In all honesty I think I need to be looser and he needs to be tighter. But who am I to give him advice [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
