Default punketty

Are people familiar with punketty from Party 5-10 NL? I feel I am a solid, strong NL player, and am not one to be awed by other very often - but in my opinion, he (I think it's a he) is the best player I have ever seen. He plays 6-max, usually three or four tables - and ALWAYS has his stacks at each table up between 3K and sometimes as high as 10K.

Yet, his play does not seem reasonable. He seems to raise every single hand. He calls raises in position with trash and defends his blinds with trash. It seems like he wins 75% of the pots he plays - yet he plays nearly every pot. At the same time, he seems to never lose a showdown!

It doesn't seem to make good poker sense to play the way that he does. He calls raises with 9-6 offsuit, raises limpers with q-4 suited, and seems to bet with no discretion. Yet he somehow seems to always be a big winner - and I have rarely seen him lose a big pot unless he gets sucked out on.

I have been watching him (as well as some of the other top players on Party 5-10 NL) for a while and am truly baffled at his style and corresponding success. Could anyone comment please?
