Attention: PARADISE PLAYERS!! Who's zx888???

[balt999]

This is for the PP Hold Em Players specifically the ones who play 2-4, 3-6, 5-10:

There's a very solid player on PP named zx888. I mentioned him because everytime I go on PP, he seems to be playing....He has some weird habits such as: 1) he only stays at a table for a short time or if he can't run over the table....2) when he raises preflop and you bet into him..99 % of the time he'll RAISE. 3) in the 1 1/2 I've played with him, HE'S NEVER UTTERED ONE WORD!!. I've had players try to get him to talk...no avail. But most of the time, people claim that he is a bot or prop player for PP...

Just curious to hear the theories of who this mystery man, zx888, is really??

This is not a conspiracy thoery..just want to know who this guy is...The only I do know is he's from Bunaby which I think is in Canada...

No idea who he/she/it is, I've played against him many times as well. Didn't pick up on anything unusual about his play, besides being pretty solid. I bounce around tables a lot, looking for better games. I've seen you bounce, too. Hey, wait a minute, you're there nearly every time I play! I think YOU'RE a Korean Bot!

I don't think you can make a big deal out of not chatting. Lots of people won't chat. You can turn off chat with the PP interface so it's likely that he doesn't even see comments directed at him.

[balt999]

Yeah, I know it's no big deal, but it's a time killer while I'm work.

See ya at the tables...I'll check-raise ya just the hell of it [img]/forums/images/icons/cool.gif[/img]

He can't be from Canada, its illegal to play from there [img]/forums/images/icons/smile.gif[/img] .
Seriously, since you noticed him he's probably a good player, might even post here. I dont know about you but I wouldnt like to have my username paraded on a public forum.
And of course, you dont tell about fish you've found [img]/forums/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

Wow, where the heck do you find that info? I'd love to see what my stats say.

[rigoletto]

hmm doesn't seem that solid to me: overly agressive?

Thanks for the info Vehn

[eMarkM]

Those are stats from PokerStat. You can pull up stats like that on anyone you've ever played with. What's your handle on PP and what limits do you play there? I can give you what I have on you if we've ever played together. Yeah, he's not as solid as I thought at first, my DB has similar stats for him.

Hey Balt,

Of course I too have played against him/her often as well. I wouldn't rate him as one of the more solid players out there though. My notes on him have some pretty loose starting standards and over aggressive raising tendencies. Most important note says never fold heads up to him. I've caught a lot of bluffs from him/her.

Hey I'd love to see any of those stats for myself vehn or eMark. My e-mail is attached to the profile if you get a chance. THanks.
