Default Ziigmund

I know that Ziigmund is Ilari Sahamies. I know he can win a lot or lose a lot in any given session. My questions are:

1.Is his ultra-aggressive style even close to being sound/correct, even given that he's playing short-handed so much?

2.Is there another prominent PLO player who plays so aggressively, or is Ziigmund the Aggro King?

Seems to be the fitting thread:
Is this a sound preflop call with 669T? Maybe it's just me but that wouldnt be a play that looks solid to me (but I just recently started playing Omaha).

Does he have enough equity to call preflop considering he isnt deep?

679T would be much better than 669T. Really is awful to take smaller pocket pairs against bigger ones.

I wonder what Brandon Adams folded after threebetting preflop there. KKxx maybe?

If it was KK there was definitely an ace attached, he saw himself as drawing thin which is why the fold came.

I'm calling off with any 4 random cards that don't have an ace in. Pairs I would throw.

I can't imagine what Brandon Adams 3-bets more than 1/4 of his stack with and then folds to a 4-bet. What's the point of even making that raise is you're not looking to get your stack in?

I guess it has to be AKK. He must have been looking to get in on any flop, but then when he got reraised, he decided he was against AA absolutely 100% of the time and folded.

Agree. But with an absolute pants 4th card as well, and no flush draw. AKK7 unsuited or something.
