Default Who was Scott Freeman talking about

Scott Freeman aka ScTrojans recently did an interview with that wierdo Shawn Patrick Green and basically pointed out who he thinks is the most over rated player in online poker... didn't name his name but here's the snippet from the interview.. .who do u guys think hes talking about? Mr.Wigger954 himself??? nahhh... i duno?!?


SPG: What’s the most overrated asset or philosophy?

SF: People overrate players who win. I’m trying to think of some overrated players.

SPG: [Laughing] That’s awesome.

SF:

I don’t want to mention any names. [Laughs] OK, well, for example, there’s this guy ********** [name omitted at Freeman’s request], you’ve heard about him, I’m sure.

SPG: I’ve defi <font color="red"> </font> nitely heard of him. [Laughs]

SF: He’s winning everything. He won the … [Freeman lists multiple wins in very big tournaments, which have been omitted for the sake of the player’s anonymity]. He’s got a bagillion whatever-points on all of the leader boards, but he’s not … good. There’s nobody that would disagree that he’s a monkey.

So, people don’t understand that there’s so much … I don’t want to call it luck, because that’s not the right word, really. But winning a tournament does not mean anything. Anybody can win a tournament on any given day, and if you just have that run of luck — that positive variance, as people are starting to call it, nowadays — if that just happens to hit you at the right time …

It’s going to hit someone, there’s no doubt that it’s going to hit somebody, and it’s hitting ********** right now. And a lot of people that don’t understand the game of poker are giving him too much credit for his results. He’s not a bad player, or anything like that, though. The amount of money that he’s won in just couple of months is nowhere, nowhere, nowhere, nowhere near his expectation. He’s hit the goldmine. Don’t mention his name, obviously.

People can say the same for me, too, because my results have been absolutely ridiculous. And I understand that results don’t mean much. I try to never, ever, use my results as a reasoning to show that I’m a good poker player, especially a good tournament poker player, because I understand how much luck and so on goes into winning these multitable tournaments. The only real way to judge how good of a poker player someone is is subjectively in watching them play and seeing the decisions that they make.

But I hear ********** is a really nice guy. And, for what it’s worth, he is really super aggressive. He bluffed off his stack in the $100 rebuy on Stars the other day. So, the most underrated asset of a poker player that I specified is definitely something that ********** has. That’s important.

This is my 1st post here, and I can tell you with 95% certainty that he's talking about "vietcong01" on Stars. He has won the Million, Warmup, $1050 and multiple 109r's.
