We never did get to hear the full side of either story. Is anyone going to shed light on this or is the case closed for discussion?

Probably closed for the most part as a lot of the details are pretty sensitive to a public forum.

btw there were some claims in this thread that i was among those who were gonna leave CC, but i never said that. i literally haven't been on a computer since the day the drama bomb exploded, until today. i don't think i'll be leaving CC but if a lot of my favorite posters are leaving then it's pretty likely i'll post a little less

Got a new name. My posts don't seem as intimidating now that they aren't headed with a long name that takes up half the screen :(

I'm pretty surprised and a little disappointed that there hasn't been any statement about what happened. I understand that not all details can be made public, but I believe keeping concerned members completely in the dark is not a fair decision.

Hey, I drink tea without milk, or sugar, or honey. Just straight up, like my espresso.

But I agree with the "just plain wrong" part. :)

I've isod super wide at 10nl as well, you just have to spot the right opp to do so against.

So the things you are looking for are?? I'm thinking, have position on him obv, and him to have a high limpcall%, high fold to cbet%, and maybe low AF?? The other stats that spring to mind would be if someone has a high donkbet% mixed with a high fold to donkbet raise% i guess.

How many hands do you like to have on someone before you start isoing wider on villains??

It's something you should try literally the 1st time they limp and you have the button. Look we all know that people who open limp suck, as a sweeping generalization (yes there are reasons for it but basically at micros they all suck). So when you see them limp and you're garenteed position (you have the btn), raise! It will let you learn a few things or at least begin to before stats even begin to tell the tale. 1st note if they limp-call or limp-fold, most will limp-call cause folding is no fun. Then note how they play the flop. If you miss and they call your flop cbet try to get to SD (as in don't keep barreling the 1st time) to learn if they called your bet with less than TP. Even 1 hand is often enough to tell you how you should be playing against this opponent.

Getting a bad player's money quickly is often the only chance you have because it's all they have and they won't keep it long. Waiting for stats to converge takes too long. I want it now. Don't wait for stats against unknowns, assume they're horrible and act accordingly.

Note: Same way with stealing. Steal until they stop you, don't wait to know they won't stop you before you start stealing.

Ahhh, you haven't lived until you've shoved slightly more than a PSB in on the river holding 83 on a board of AQQ66 because you know your opponent has an Ace (well so you hope) and there is no way he can call. You just stop breathing as he times down and folds. Exhilarating!
LOL I have done that with a 24os on a tight player....

Oh i am sure the case is closed.

You appear to be only half the man you used to be. I hope the surgery didn`t hurt. :eek:
