...plays exploitable. I dont like this play at all... Why does he play like this?? I would push AT in this spot, but than the most famous low-stakes s&g player @ pokerstars limps UTG for 1/6th of his stack. Anyone of you think this obviously exploitable line is any good?? I'd fold jacks in this spot, because I NEVER saw him do this with bad hands. I dont like it at all!

you give him way to much credit for being a good player

I saw some of his HHs, he is playing fine on and FOR these limits, but he can't adjust to the play on higherstakes, that is the reason why he limps his KK here, because there will always be a fish that will shove.
And because of this he will not limp bad hands, because he will be pushed to often.

So in general, he is the most famous player on this limit, but definitely not the best, because the really good players move up very fast.

Nah, I just give him credit for being famous. He is as ambitious as a 50 year old plumber, so I know he isn't the best of the best or anything, but this one was so unbelievably obvious... I dont think he got much value out of that one, since 88 would probably have called his push too. So he only made me fold here, while I know he could shove UTG rather loose in similar situations, because of the blinds eating his stack next two hands.


couter aguement he probably doesn't think any1 will take note of his play at this limit you are obviously good and look out for other players actions but I am sure alot of players at low limits only focus on there own cards. So if you were a bad player that A10 would have been exploited because you would have pushed it know matter what because you have know knowledge of the player and the strength of limpin utg.


just had a look at albatross's sharkscope graphs and he has had a dabble at $50 and his ROI is -40%. That might explain his reluctancy to move up a limit.
