I think Rolf has it right.

Rolf says other players used to call him "ACE" when he started out, wish i had a cool nickname

I don't know what Rolf said, but I can offer this observation.

Against the Button on the flop, you should prevail through the showdown 99.7% of the time.

Against the Button on the turn, you should prevail through the showdown 95.45% of the time.

Against the Button on the river, well you know what happened when 8h dropped.

By the way, what did Rolf say that you wish you would have applied?
