Title: Our new online whizzkid (or luckbox) millionaire needs to learn some humility
Post by: Suited_Jock on January 25, 2007, 09:37:27 AM
Just read a thread on =4 regarding an interview Jimmy Gobboboy Fricke had done on a mates blog which really made me laugh. Whilst im sure the kid can play some poker he's very very naive and disrespectful to players that he comes across, stating that "99% of the oz millions field couldn't tie their own shoelaces"

The thread is here: http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=8898612&page=0&fpart=1&vc=1&nt=14

and the interview is here: http://drinkingandpoker.com/

Look out for Gobboboy's mum defending him in the thread priceless.

I think his biggest live weapon could be his looks.  Imagine being constantly reraised by him and looking over and see that staring you down - hard not to lose it and shove into a strong hand, lol.

Tell us about heads up with Gus Hansen.

I had a 3-1 chiplead, I just wanted it to be over quickly but after a few hands of playing HU I realized how deep we were. We were at 50k/100k blinds with 15 million in play, so 150 bb’s in play. And he started catching a LOT of cards. There was nothing I could do against top pair every single hand. I did make a few retarded plays/calls.

He hits, it's skill.  Someone else hits, it's luck.

He must have a decent game to achieve what he has.  Just needs to have a word with himself.  Good looking chap though, should be a hit with the ladies.

I followed his progress in the Aussie Millions via =4.  In the main sweat thread he posted quite a few times.  This may come back to haunt me, but he seemed fairly level-headed at times.  At one time, when Shaniac got annoyed because he kept saying "Ship it!"when taking down a pot, Gobbo did confess that he realised he was being an ass saying it and stopped doing it.  I thought he conducted his interviews well also.

Don't forget he is young, and probably hangs out with a lot of morons.  From time to time he's going to act like a jerk when he doesn't intend to.

There's no doubting he's a real talent.  He comes from a long line of super-aggressive kids that have made their mint on the internet and are using this technique in the big live tournaments as soon as they are old enough.  I think we're going to see a lot more from this guy.

Well he has the game - just lacking the social skills or common sense to go with it.  19 is old enough to know better, and by the intelligent replies and comments he has shown he can make, it's not that he doesn't understand that he's acting like an arse.

I'd be intrigued to know who the 'retard' who open limped was, so that I could point him towards the interview.

The kid is right, however he will soon discover that tournament variance is by far the most important factor in these events anyway.

I wonder why?
he probably plays 15 hrs a day, and the only company he has is his mom feeding him every 1 hr.

lol, ty Nem 

What site does this guy play on?    There are so many young players, I feel old at 27 now  :D .  I read an interview with a player called Annette 15 and a few of the other online players from a site I found, but I don't know what this guy is called?

Decent post.

By the looks of the chap, one can assume he didn't have the easiest time growing up, we are all products of our enviroment.

Hopefully now he's an adult, people will begin to treat him as an equal, and his real personality will get a chance to grow. Sadly, some of the attitudes exhibited on this thread suggest that it may not be possible. Did we not all get over laughing at funny looking folk when we were 15?

You are right

When he mentions Magic in his interview. Is this Magic the Gathering?   Does anyone have any experience of this game and how it relates to poker?    I have a friend who plays a lot of this game and we used to also battle it out playing chess/risk during our childhood.

I agree, love the way he is happy to take on Hansen though lol. Seems over cocky but he's young, looks like he has the play to make it big. He will make billions from sponsorship, has about 4.2 acres of logo room, and that's just his left arm...

pretty common in the USA, unfortunately, thankfully 'spastic' has gone out of fashion in the UK.
Is the vid for this tourney on Youtube yet, cannot seem to find?
