Default poltergeist on Full Tilt

was railing Matusow v Shannon Shorr O8, Matusow said he would bet anyone on the rail any amount that poltergeist "will break TexasLimitKing playing heads up LHE."
Matusow said "he has been one of the top 5 head up lhe players in the world for 20 years"

who could poltergeist be?

how long does TLK need to sustain his current winnings before he is widely regarded as one of the top 5?

i missed a lot of the match but he busted once, rebought small and then busted again. TLK ended with 116K so i'm guessing TLK won 66K from him.

not sure who it is, but he is some sort of non-sleeping super human. i put in about a 16 hour session on FTP and he was on the entire time, playing almost all of it.

i know that's not a LONG session, but playing HU that high, pretty impressive in my book.

I find it hard to believe a thing that comes out of Mike's mouth at a poker table.

If poltergeist is a big game live player hitting up the online scene, I would back TLK 100% of the time to win in the long run.

Bold and perhaps naive statement but I think online players are soooo much better than live players. If he is Bobby Baldwin (which I doubt) then it's only a matter of time before we don't see him around much.

anyways

Bobby Baldwin? That's great, if it's true.
