Is McEvoy really THAT good?

I don't know an incredible amount about him because I haven't seen him in the various TV events.


I did get to play live with him though...in my first WSOP event (July 1, $3k NLHE) I had Huck Seed to my immediate left and Tom McEvoy two seats to my right.
Tom pushed all-in on me on one hand and knocked me out of a pot pre-flop because I wasn't ready to coin-flip (at best...I had 99) quite yet.
Otherwise he didn't really get a chance to do anything spectacular at out table and even after 6 hours I didn't get THAT much of a read on his play.

Nice enough guy though.

You cant save these videos because they are streamed.

I don't know if you have any influence on such things, but the sound balance is pretty weird. The table sounds are louder than Tom, which seems silly.

He is better than most, so YES, I would say he is "THAT good."

The sound balance sucks.
The first video is better than the 2nd as far as sound balance.
Deal with it.
It sucks, but its worth a viewing...

He cant be doing that great. I've played $5-10 LHE with him twice in the last 2 weeks at Stars and tonite he was gambling it up at $15-30-woohoo. Either he's not doing too hot or someone else is playing his account. Alot of "tourney stars" are not great cash players as we all know or at least should know by now. I think Tom has had issues with money managment thru his career-this is not new news again.

While what you say might be true, I have to think what u say may be a little biased.

My poker coach (a WSOP bracelet winner and a very respected high stakes ring game player) is (compared to live winnings) winning less than he would live at the 10/20 , 20/40 ,50/100 and above ONLINE.

Not trying to bitch here, but Tom is still one of the BEST card players. Im sorry if you saw him on a downswing last week on your last week or so, but players like him are NOT losing players.

Yes, players like Tom and my coach my have losing session/weeks and maybe months, but trying to say they are bad and dont know how to "manage their money" as cash players is totally out of your grasp.

Tom knows what he is doing so STFU N00b

I'm not going to bother with the second, then. The first one's good for beginners who play too many hands I suppose, but I doubt there are too many people here who would be helped by it.
