Best player you've played with

Who have you guys played with and thought "hmm this guy is pretty damn tough"

I've only played with two people where I've come out and thought that:

Straate + RikDayton

cts

Genius28

I think the guy who has given me most problems is 20 Buck Spin but he's def not the "best" player I've played with. Have played with straate, PoorUser, peachy for like 20 hands -_- Ket's live home game is pretty sick too.

durrrr,cts,krantz. I didn't have any tough spots against them, but they are the best I've had at the table for sure.

I played quite a bit with samoleus back in the day on UB and he was definitely pretty tough to play. PoorUser can be quite irritating at times as well.

"Roberi" and "Sir_Call" on Prima used to give me problems too, really not sure if they're good at all though

An0npg1 @ Crypto. good lag that used to put me on tilt like he did it for a living, + he polished his luckbox before every hand

edit: edited his name slightly, dont want him to google this and get a boner

Sbrugby on UB in a CR video, didn't know it was him tho he was coaching someone else in that video.

I dont like to have 20 Bucks Spin, Straate, The Cleaner or Punketty to my left, even though 20 Bucks Spin has donated quite a lot of money to me to the date. There are definately more players I dont like to have to my left actually, basically every good 5/10+ LAG regular.

And I also wasnt particulary happy to have DevilFish with a decent stack two to my left in a live tournament.

hehe yeah that guy was so annoying when I played on crypto

and he's on an eternal life heater

I remember at NL50 and NL100 I hated to have famou$_$oon at the table.

ya he is one of the toughest playerson crypto, as are Pard01, Inicius, Skier_5 and Reverb! (Radiohead on LP)

i played with steve several times but he was pretty ez

I had a few high stakes players at my table, but dont know if it was tough. I deffinitely dont want Lyric at my left playing 40/30
Other players dont know what they were doing at my NL400 tables like Molowski, Redargoe and MezmerizePLZ

KidYouNot on betfair
GNEKKKHEST on Ongame

Johnnykran and Kelisitaan give me a lot of problems.

live poker with drunk rekrul and myth 500 bb's deep 6 handed.


online in cash i've never played high enough to where I consider myself out matched, tournament wise tho i've had a 109 6m table that had Lilholdem, psyduck, and thayer all there.

NeillyAA

VanDerMayDe !

TiltStarter aka TotalSilent on pty. unorthodox style and a pretty tough player.

de knjiff, thuritz, rahm, antonius when I played the martinspoker grand prix invitational: http://www.martinspoker.com/index.php?id=1072&option=com_content&task=view

logiabs

BigBruiner007

I haven't run into a player I thought was really a lot better than me yet.

Genius is quite sick indeed

RALPH PERRY

Darkxprt

played live with peachy

he stacked me with J4o

gulkines is awesome when hes playing well

gulkines ("yellow chinese" in swedish) is one of the sickest players i've ever played with. we both went from Tain to Crypto a few years back and at the soft Tain network he was dominating everything and everyone all the time (i guess he still dominates on crypto). Cleaned out the tables completely many times, but also got cleaned out himself more often than other good players. but his style is very fun to watch, possibly the most LAG player i've seen and incredibly tough to be oop with.

probably clay when he's moved down to 400NL to de-tilt and just mess around

TWIN CARACAS!

Radioheads, Midian, Locoo, Borkii,

Marshall28

PoorUser without a doubt

I have never played with anyone good yet.

huuummmbertoooo brenes

how can people claim "no good yet" and still not be on a really high level... if it's that easy - why not climb the ladder huh.

Daut44

asf

had hardest time with cts, so many good people tho

online: durrr sbrugby

live: elky (not joking he's the best at live poker)

thecleaner, i was drunk and playing $2/$4

very first hand he goes allin for 100bb after i 3bet my BB with ATs (no history), he allin i fold and shows 45s

next i get pocket tens and he floats me twice then overbets an ace on the river.. i wuss and fold again

proceded to own me a few other hands as well

guy has balls

i love it how when i tell people that respect my intelligence that elky is way better than them at poker it tilts the fuck out of them

u should see rainkhan

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

l gotta make somebodies list asap

Had David Pham on my left day 2 of EPT on the bahamas. Sick skills

Also playing with PU on the table live in Korea made me feel like an ant

that would be a false statement if we include discipline in being an overall better player, It's another thing if we're only talking about playing the cards

I had Johnny Chan at my table during WSOP event 47 last summer. I beat him one hand. I raised PF from middle position, he folded SB. YES-SHIP! He was shortstacked and more concerned with reading the paper and passing out ALL-IN energy drink anyway.

I also beat rekrul heads up for a dollar.

ez fix to this problem, just never move up.. never play anyone hard..

i guess mez would b the hardest, but there was some other LPr i playd HU a while back that was rly hard 2 but i cant remember his name.. and obv its not doomer.

ToT)Midian Sir_Call calls 3bets with 64s 1 odds and raises 53s utg =
surely not top that good
he minraised cbet on TdJd6c on flop with 64s pair and fd hehe

I've never played a cash game with someone who i felt owned my soul, but i played a hu sng vs straate and felt my life slowly being sucked out of my body

sigh I hate to say it cuz his ego will just grow immensley

never really ran into that many good players at the micro stakes ha, the only people i give any respect to are LPers that i knew

h/u cash - raszi.
tourneys - having zangbezan 1 to my left.

In theory Taylor Caby (greenplastic) when he played me for his cardplayer video however I didn't know it was him and just ran over him for a cpl of buyins and then found out a few days later v.good mannered of him to still post up the video though.
