OMFG

Playing at 2/4 table tonight. Most amazing thing I have ever seen. Another 2+2er at table and can confirm

Played for about 5 hours and I won $150.

One gut lost over $1300 at this one table. His Flop% was 96 and his PFR% was 36.

Everytime he went broke he reloaded. I think $1300 is actually low. He played every hand, usually for a raise. All you had to do was isolate him and win with any reasonable hand. I saw multiple $100 plus pots (at 2/4), And he never got upset, just kept reloading. He'd cap every street with nothing.

Absolutely incredible. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Homer can confirm that we played with a similar guy last summer at a 3/6 table. It was a very interesting game with an average pot of almost $100.

Basically, it was one guy being a nutjob and the rest of the table trying their best to get heads-up against him with any reasonable holding.

I still remember it because of my river value bet with QJ unimproved.

I don't understand people like this. Do they just get a thrill by blowing through money like that or what? Even someone who likes to "gamble", isn't dumb enough to do that.

I love it.

People get drunk and stuck, and all of a sudden the bankroll is flying out the window.

Edit: are signatures not working right now?

One night, after a significant number of beers. I decided to play some online poker. I thought I did pretty well. The next morning I woke up and my bankroll was GONE!.

What was the guy's name? Tonight, at a 2/4 table, I saw something almost identical to your description, but I got there at the tail end of his session so I don't know what he started with.

Before I had a clue about poker I did this to a few low-limit tables. It's a far more enjoyable way to lose money than $100+/hand blackjack.

Would you call them crazy if they rented a Fountain boat, and spend $1,300 on the rental and gasoline?

i doubt that the world's worst player could lose $260/hour on a 2/4 table without extremely bad luck. even on a 5/10 table it would take some cold cards.

I think I was at this table for awhile. His name didn't happen to start with 'B' did it?

[Tosh]

When I used to play 1/2 I played against someone who dumped nearly $1000 to a table in a few hours. Later saw him playing good poker at 20/40.

Played with somebody like that on Party yesterday at the .5/1. She'd bet every time and would cap any bet. Flop, Turn, and River. I saw her dump 70, and I assume she'd done more before I joined the table.

Yes it certainly did. /images/graemlins/smile.gif I remember you now.

My first 10/20 session on New Year's Eve at Foxwoods had a maniac that was the same. MaxPower will attest.

However, he preceded to lose 5k+ in 5 hours.

Raised every hand. When 3-bet, he autocapped. When he had any piece of the flop he riased, when 3-bet on the flop, auto-cap.

I ended up with a 70BB win in my first session.

They are out there.

Peace,
Joe Tall

Actually he did get his fair share of good cards. He even won his fair share of hands.He just lost huge. Like I said capping every street with nothing. Poker Tracker stats below. This was from my time with him. Other 2+2er was there about 1 hour longer and his PT had him at -$1300 plus.
