Yeah I saw this too but I think Worm base dealt Chan pocket aces in the hand I was watching because I saw him catch a hanger.

Well if you believe Barry G he says johnny plays like he's late for a bus.

[/ QUOTE ]

good lord you are dumb

[/ QUOTE ]
From Barry G:

Best game: Pot-limit Omaha
Weakness: Not focused as much as he once was

In the late ‘80’s and early ‘90’s, Johnny was the best no-limit hold’em tournament player in the world. Since then, he has used his tournament success as a vehicle to get his himself involved in different business ventures. He is still a skilled player, but he plays very impatiently as if he is late for a meeting. He used to be very weak at limit poker, but he improved his limit game significantly in the late ‘90’s and early 00’s. It is probably surprising that I listed pot-limit Omaha as his best game, but I am going by results and his best results over the last few years in side games (and even in the WSOP) have been in pot-limit Omaha.

Look, smoothcall got the quote entirely wrong. He also made it sound like Barry just made that crap up to almost slander him.

I stand by my original statement.

WHAT? How did i get the quote worng? How did i acxt like he made it up to slander him? Do you speak the english language? I was not trying in anyway to slander Barry. I was trying to point out that he thinks johnny is imaptient and not one of the top players in that game.

You are slandering me and making things up i didn't say you blanken blankedy blank!

Listen you can either listen and stop rejecting the truth or don't say anything because you have no idea what your talking about.

Stand by whatever you want you sad individual. But stop telling me i'm slandering Barry when i in fact respect Barry, and think what he says is closest to anybodies truth that we have heard from people in the big game that play it regularly.

And i wish i coulda saw your post about me before dynasty erased it so i could really see what a blankedy blank you are. Why are you insulting me? Jealousy? I'm sorry you are wannabee who is love with criticzing others. Not my fault. I just speak the truth is all. Show me one statement i ever made that was a lie. I eitehr tell the truth or tell my opinion. I have never lied or said someone said somthing that they didn't. Yet you call me a slanderer. Show me the money or be quiet my little friend.

So you felt that the OP misquoting and using "bus" instead of "meeting" was grounds enough for a "good lord you are dumb" comment?

Makes sense...

Meh, he didn't get the quote exactly right but I thought he got the spirit of the quote right. Also notice that I posted the excerpt and I think his "paraphrased quote" was reasonably correct here but I certainly didn't refute your claim that he is dumb.
