Anyone know who I_Knockout_U is? on UB?

Ricardido · #1 10-25-2005, 08:00 PM

I've been watching him for a while now- hes two tabling headsup at the 200-400 and 150-300 on UB. He is an absolute maniac and the pace of the play is almost unwatchable.

Who is he- anyone played much headsup with him? Im just absorbing his play- it boggles my unseasoned brain.

He plays 300/600 on ladbrokes. He's very good and a pretty big winner from what I hear.

He is one of the build-huge-pots-then-never-fold-postflop Scandinavian players. Don't read that to mean he's a chump though because he isn't. He's quite good. He wins by getting his opponents to play scared of him because they often begin to perceive him as more of a maniac than he is. Plus, because playing against him is going to bring about some huge swings, he is more often equipped to handle those rapid swings than many of his opponents who are not used to such.

He's in the top 3 of online HU players imo. Very tough.

the guy he is playing is the fish, not him

asg999 was down to like 220$ and managed to get back to like 16k - he went on a big rush.

He also plays the $500/1000 on the PokerRoom network whenever he can get action and recently won the European Poker Tour (EPT) in Baden, Austria.

Apparantly, he also has a part-time job as a model!!!
