KOTZ vs WSOP Champion!

[Sheriff Fatman]

OK

Greg's just emailed me his hand history so I'm gonna have a quick private post mortem (which won't take long given there's so few hands), then I'll post the info.

After that, the floodgates can open good and proper!

Sheriff

Maybe you can win a WSOP seat and play him on the final table.

OK then, I can't get the hand converter to work properly so seeing as there's only 17 hands [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img] I'll post them manually. Apologies for any typos.

Hand 18

....don't feel bad, Fatman.

If you ever get to make it to our neck of the woods(Foxwoods), I'll make sure that you get the chance to sit down with Greg and engage in some 5,5 PL ring game action.

Believe me, there are many who've thought less than complimentary things about his play......Most of them have left that table minus a good chunk of change.

Putting Greg on a hand is pretty damned impossible. I've seen him clean people clocks with regularity.

Now, for the skeptics out there........"This ain't hero worship".

I know there are players that have put in more hours at the tables with Greg than I have. But, I've played a fair amount in tourns, ring games and h/u with him, plus because we're good friends, I've had the benefit of many hundreds or hours of discussions with him regarding the game.

He plays the game at a level that most of us wish we could.....

[SackUp]

damn, rough last hand. betting into the nuts, ouch!

hey all good though. heads up can be pretty random.

[Sheriff Fatman]

Just been flicking through the hand history file to see what the hell was being said while we were playing (don't know how Greg keeps up with it but he seemed to catch several comments as they whizzed past).

Anyhow, after hand 12 when I'd folded to a Fossilman bet on the river I jokingly typed the following into the chat box:

debaser said, "i hate him already [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]"

I didn't spot it at the time but I've just found the following a few lines further down the chat:

RugDoctor [observer] said, "i hate him more"

And with that, I re-discovered the gift of laughter!

Nice.

[deacsoft]

Favored preflop: Sheriff 9, Fossilman 8
Preflop favorite hands won: Sheriff 4, Fossilman 6
Average % favored preflop: Sheriff 67.4%, Fossilman 62.45%
Hands won: Sheriff 6, Fossilman 11
Dominated preflop: Sheriff 3, Fossilman 3
Best hand made: Sheriff A-A-A-J-J, Fossilman A-J-T-9-5 (flush)

Just some quick stats I came up with. It seems as though Sheriff had the best of Fossilman preflop, but the cards just didn't hit for him.

Attn Donbuttons....

you owe me 5K of play money - but if you just drop $100 of real money in my account I'll let it go -

never doubt my man Fossilman, man....
