Default (OT) Anyone know RaiNKhaN on stars? he 15-20 tables the $15+1 Turbos

played a few with this guy yesterday. since he is roughly 18-20 tabling the turbos I feel like he might be a 2+2er. In one SNG I played in, he busted out 9th when TT cracked his AA and someone commented he was a bot. Now I am not saying that, but was wondering what people thought of his play...

If you are playing 18-20 tables your early play will be very robotic, also the fact he plays so many tables probably means its near enough impossible for him to chat this proving he isnt a bot.

Not sure who he is. Lately he has been running 25 tables at a time. He plays solid ABC poker. I think he is a bit passive on the bubble. Guess I would be too if I had 16-18 bubbles at the same time.

I know him from Starcraft. His name on battle.net was z7-RaiN. Probably a solid player.

Do people think it's reasonable to think he is a bot? I'm just returning to 2+2 and poker in general after a long absence, and in the meantime I've read about $200 bots that sit and play nonstop, and right as I returned to 2+2 I caught that thread where someone was mentioning they'd been banned after making $15k playing $20+2s without ever moving up. (And it sounded like despite protestations they may have been using a bot, as they didn't even answer popups)

Anyhow, I'm just wondering if people report 15-tablers, and if they still trust the system in general.

yeah his style seems to be "ABC" as you put it. He was a little too "pushy" in one of the SNGs I played w him yesterday:

A substantial amount of 2p2'ers 10-12 table. Just because you play alot of tables, doesn't make you a bot.

if you think there's something wrong with this play, you're dumb.

I'm almost certain it's not a bot. He used to post on another forum.
