That dude has more game than you can ever possibly conceptualize.
To judge his game on the few occasions you probably played 15/30 to 40/80 at places like the Park or the Gardens is ridiculous. He was probably playing with his case money that he scraped together somehow, most likely borrowed, and didn't have all of his senses working together. Sure he probably lacks money management skills, is not as good as he used to be, has other vices not to be mentioned but he would slice you up in pot limit, no limit, shorthanded or headsup and tournaments. Like yourself I have played with Huck in middle limits and seen him do weird things like jack it up in early position with the 8,3 suited, but he was probably bored. He has played 1,000/2,000 and higher, what the hell does 15/30 mean to him? Feeling superior because you did better than him in a ring middle limit game is just pathetic. |

Having played dozens of tournies with Huck, and having played ringgames with him dozens of times, and having played with Steve G. dozens of times, I'd take Steve's action over Hucks in a full limit holdem ring game any day of the week and twice on Sundays.
In other games (i.e. Stud and Stud 8), I'd take Huck over dang near anybody. The fact that, as you point out, he was likely playing horridly with his (likely) case money oughta tell you what kind of player he is. Josh |

does stud and stud-8 get spread in CA card rooms regularly? I know they have the high limit at the hustler, but do mid limit games go all the time?

Otherwise he's an honorless, classless, irresponsible [censored]. (Note that I don't know anything about if this is true, so I'm not accusing Huck of being anything. I'm just saying that one implies the other.) And playing stupidly because you're bored is bad play. Bad play is what bad players do. If someone sucks because they're not trying, they still suck. eastbay |

I agree with you on that, in a full ring limit game I am sure there are plenty of players that are better, I do not dispute that.
But a full ring middle limit game is different than a full ring high limit game. As for him playing horribly with his case money, the dude has issues, no doubt. The point I was trying to make was that his poker talent can't be quantified soley based on some guy playing a few times with him in a ring middle limit holdem game. |
