Ozzy 87

[byronkincaid]

I've been googling Ozzy 87 if you don't know who he is this might be quite interesting.

Ozzy is 18 years old and started playing poker in the summer of 2004 on a poker stars account in his mum's name. This account BigSlick789 is showing total tournament winnings of $260,266 on pokerdb.
As soon as he turned 18 he got his own account, total wins $58,936.

He plays $5000 heads up on stars which won't show on his pokerdb stats and 50/100 NL against Mahatma and co. The biggest pot he has won is $55K.

He played his first live tourney at the Stars PCA WPT and came 6th.

He lost a $100,000 prop bet in August betting on Gigabet to win the Stars tourney leaderboard that month.

He has qualified on stars for Deauville and Monte Carlo.

I have not seen one comment even suggesting that he's a lucky fish, everyone is saying he's just unbelieveably good at poker.

The more I read about him, the older and dumber I feel.

He was at my table in the Bahamas and I was telling ben that he is seriously awesome.  The kid is a different gravy, I rate him to be the next Ivey.  He was a bit nervous though

Our paths have crossed on pokerstars on many occasions, he is a good and aggresive player but only if he has a decent stack. He will take a lot of chances early on in tournaments just to build up a big chip lead - the majority of his good results are in rebuy tourneys on stars. He does have his faults, but then dont we all - i'll let other people figure out what they are though, he's still got a way to go yet before he can be talked about in the same league as Ivey.

I was listening to card player coverage of the bahamas event and Mike Matusow was raveing about this kid,
He said he took $40.000 off him the day before they left for the event.

You think if I gave him my BlueSquare account details he'd build my pittance up to 3k (£  not $)  for me??
