Default Re: How Does Derb Play?

you're going to get a billion responses with isolated hands that look insane. i don't think anything short of a contiguous set of 50+ hands could be taken very seriously because of selection bias (from both supporters and detractors).

the general 'how does he play' is loose aggressive. plays many more hands than usual (liberal cold-calling with hands in late position that might be dominated), raises many more hands than usual, and makes regular plays for the pot like heads up threebets on the turn with far from stellar holdings. such tactics are not popular online, even in moderation, because the 'anonymous' and hyper-aggressive nature of the games promotes liberal calldowns.
