Default Multi-tabling at the Wynn - investigative reporting by TT

Apparently this guy is a regular at the Wynn. He was playing 4 20/40 tables at Empire (no PT, no PA, not reading tools at all) and a live 15/30 game. Because of his multi-sensory experience he was extra tight, except for when he was in the blinds he would only limp with medium pocket pairs, or A-middle suited, and raise with all pocket pairs TT & above (I never saw him showdown hands such as AK, AQ, KQ, etc so I cannot comment).When I sat down at the table he was on a heater, up 26 BB (he claimed), by the time I left he was complaining that he was down to a bit less than his buyin.

What motivates someone to do this? Mid-game he told a story to the dealer about losing 14K playing PLO earlier in the week, so he had to take a step down.

That's just about the greatest thing I've ever seen. I'm surprised the Wynn allows it.

Gonores and NLSoldier were playing at the same table with me (Justin A was sweating and playing my stack during bathroom breaks), we were all in awe of what he was doing although he was a bit of a tightly-wound ass; I guess that should be expected considering the pressure he was facing. We didn't discuss it out loud but we were under the impression that online play is illegal in Nevada. How does that affect the Wynn?

And at Foxwoods, you can't even use a cell phone.

I shot video on my cellphone of Gonores' legeondary mantis style at the Wynn... as soon as I can get it converted, I'll post [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I saw this guy when I was there last monday night. I looked over his shoulder trying to see what limit he was at. Didn't think to look for his name. D'oh!
My first reaction was that he was a tool. That Wynn game better be awfully good, otherwise I don't see the point.

Looks like his screen is > 1600x1200. How expensive is that laptop?
