sorry posted wrong second try last night at Canterbury park 3-6 stud game Pleasant guy late 30's early 40's clean, clean cut, sober, kind of quiet. Brings it in for max. If raised reraised bet or raised on all streets folded about six times in three hours. Went 9 bets QQ showing against pair 7 showing. 7's had straight flush no more money. he had one pair of Q's. went six bets with an Ace high flush against a solid player with full house. Full house stopped betting. left at 10pm about $25 ahead.

They're at the casino to enjoy the thrill of gambling. The idea of playing proper stategy doesn't interest them.

A person who is there to have fun. He might play craps or he might play poker for the night. It doesn't matter to him.. He is just there for the action. Definatley the type of person you want in your game. I was at a table today where most all were like that.

Also, as you noted he left +$25. I've noted that player slike this often don't do as poorly as you'd expect because more timid players are afraid to get involved in a hand with them.
