Mark

why do you prefer LHE to NLHE ?

you are def a world class limit specialist with a huge edge on the majority of your opponents online

no brainer there

but genuinely curious as to why you haven't played more NLHE or Omaha etc...aside from the fact you are a consistent winner at LHE of course

we've had this debate/discussion many times about NLHE vs LHE, still interested to hear why you prefer the latter

TIA

[chinamaniac]

who is your favorite poster, and why is it me?

there are 2 answers

1. TYDE - hes the best. Nobody can captivate u to a post like he can. And he is honest and truthfully he is one of my best "friends". Met him once talk to him every day almost

2. Bottomset he may be the best. he still posts so read for gold. I dont respect any poster more than I respect him for all the work he has done here posting and calling out who needs to call out

trey is god

if your listening to FUEGO LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

refer to my 2nd on 3rd post in this thread


TYDE i thought about this on the way home. Why do I continue and destroy the lhe market


my answer is i destroy it cause it is easy. Games change. there is one face at the top limits in the world. With games that run I am somewhat the end boss. They come I play them hu or 6 max I crush. Make that coin tyde its easy

now
I asked myself tonight why dont u play NL, u may be the best now if not the best right in the competing group in lhe.

My answer I should play NLHE I have the money to take swings. Concepts are similar now with all the min betting but I dont cause I am comfotable being a leach taking money every day not NEEDING TO SWITCH

but i guarantee a few years from now i would tell u i wish i risked in NL causwe I feel I could beat a lot of the goodish players now

too easy now for me

Not to do with poker but how could you go from being that athletic to being close to 400 lbs? Was it due to the poker lifestyle?
