KaneKungFu123\'s site
 
one of your rules is:

"When you play poker use game selection. Find the bad players. Don't be lazy and sit in
a game that is no longer Short handed"

short handed is what you are looking for? is this what all the pros honestly do? i figured full ring would be the game of choice for a lot of players, and how long did it take for u to beat SH/HU?

All of that stuff on his site is gibberish. It is just a trick to get you there so your computer can suffer what is known as a driveby installation of a new trojan that isn't yet recognized by any of the security software. Now KKF can see all of your hole cards and knows all your login passwords. Of course I was smart enough to check it out from a library terminal. Tough luck for any library employees who play high stakes poker on their lunch breaks.

i don't play very high (2/4) but i have preferred short-handed for a while now

IMO its just better

full ring feels kind of like trying to outflop people too much

your opponent has the best hand out of your 9 opponents instead of 3

aggro styles like mine prevail more in SH games

KKF - I think you should use Blogger or something - It would be quite an aesthetic upgrade and lend an air of professionalism that could only help your site.

I look for short games when I play higher than 5/10 because I don't know how to play full and I don't care to learn. It's more fun anyway. I pretty much only know how to play 4- to 7-handed. Oh well. The internet lets me be really specialized and still make money.

I think most players make more mistakes shorthanded. Most people can do OK in full ring by playing tight and playing good hands. Shorthanded, I think a good player has more of an edge.

KKF, you're falling behind in your weekly updates...

It's surprising, but sites like yours and ZJ's are somewhat light on playing tips (they're pretty new i know) but those given have actually helped me enormously. An hour after reading ZJ's tournament info, i made some key changes and final tabled a MTT, then placed my best ever in the special. The advice is more grounded than most books, and therefore more directly applicable.
Thanks guys, and I hope you keep updating.

PS - any other good 2+2er sites out there?

No, he isn't. Why are there so many idiots online. Sorry if this is harsh, but it really isn't that hard to navigate his website.

This would be based on how much $20/month means to you.

I would definitely subscribe for 1 month just to see what it's like.

Is Green Plastic someone I would want to learn from? I don't care about how much a membership costs, but I would hate to learn from someone who has major leaks I might not be able to identify. I'm just not that familiar with his play.

Yeti 10-29-2005 02:33 PM

Re: KaneKungFu123\'s site
 
I hear GP is pretty solid.

$20 is nothing, so it may be worth a look. At the same time, he isn't going to be revealing that much for such a princely sum.

If there's a lot of content on there, this would be incredibly useful for those who are actually playing against him. I doubt there is, but am willing to be proven wrong.

He's a regular at 50/100 NL.

I really dont like listening to other people explain things verbally on tape. Its like listening to anwering machines. Painful.

Kane-

I noticed you were planning on taking the 80k FEI exemption. How do you get around getting gambling winnings exempted as foreign earned income?

I may be moving overseas as well if there is a legal way to do this.

Thanks.

Yeah, even as a professional, it still is gambling income. I haven't been able to get a clear answer from anyone about how this will fly with the IRS, and my assumption is that it wouldn't go over well, but I'm hoping Kane knows something I don't.

No. They actually charge a $50 "Signup Fee" along with the $20 normal charge. I'm not paying $70 dollars to watch a bunch of guys kill high stakes cash games.

$50 signup fee? Jesus

Ok I take back what I said then. Sorry.

$70 for some videos is way too much for me. That was my point. This also means my point was that it isn't too much for other people. Shut up immediately.
