Re: name influence
This gets me thinking - would it be +ev for me to adopt a screenname lik2 "bicycle kick" or 'astroglide' to get people to think I played in a style that I didn't?

Re: name influence
As i usually play as PeterRus, Peter_rus, Peter__rus etc majority of time i can state that it does damage your game in limit TH as good players who recently changed their nicks has 200-400 hands of 'free run', when they know how you usually play against unknowns, and you don't know who's stand right now against you.

Re: name influence
personally I would prefer to have people not respect my game and constantly take shots with weak hands/draws.
I would rather be seen as a donkey than a solid force to be reckoned with. since they will take occasional shots at you but they will often run into made hands as well depending on how your running. it's always nice to see some guy caps the turn when he picks up the runner nut flush draw and lead the river even when he misses and your there to greet him with trips on board.

First of all you are probably going to assume a player is like 20/10 if you have no knowledge of them aren't you? And it will only take maybe 20 hands to see a player is tight and maybe 50 hands to get a pretty good idea on there raising standards. I don't think it can hurt to change a nickname, but I don't think it helps that much, it would help more if you had a unusual style.
