VERY LUCKY???
I dont know exactly where to post this, but figured this is the best place. I have a friend that has been playing NLH for about 8 months now. He has never read a poker book, does not post on this or any other forum, is in all honesty only average in intelligence, and has only a basic knowledge of odds, outs, equity etc. He plays drawing hands out of position, plays weak aces, will get all the money in on draws that are not close to the nuts, and will call a raise with a hand like KJoff at the drop of a hat. He is also up over 20 thousand cash in the last 4 months!!! I play in the same games with him sometimes and I cant believe what I see. He KNOWS he plays badly and gets involved when he shouldnt....but he wins so damned much that he says why change? As a matter of fact, in the last TWO DAYS he has made 5200. Last nite on Party 1000 buy in he racked up 2700! Two nites ago in live cardroom action he cashed out 2500! It is truly amazing to see this type of EXTENDED luck....or whatever you choose to term it. I just scatch my head and wonder when the luck runs out or when the laws of mathematics will take over? To win over 20 grand in 200 buy in games...and to do it in 4 months the way he plays and the hands he plays is mind boggling. If I hadnt witnessed it with my own two eyes I wouldnt believe it. Unreal.
