He luckboxed his way to a GJP win a year ago from what Floppy has told me

cheers, I enjoy reading passionate posts but as a neutral in some of these "locking horns debates" I'd rather no one fell out"

Internet - serious business.

Bit harsh IMO, it's one thing to disagree with someone and to argue/point out the flaws in their thinking (and i believe this to be the right thing to do as some folks might actually take in some wrong advise that could potentially harm them) but it's another to belittle the person.

Not to mention it is not in the true "spirit" of this community.
Personal attacks are out of order.

Relax, lighten up and break bread, this ain't nice.

ifm, this is a hand analysis board. People come in here (presumably) to learn about the game and improve. Poker is a game in which people open them selves up to winning and losing money. I assume that if you want to learn and improve it means that you wish to not lose money. As such, it's not right to allow advice that could potentially lose people money go unchallenged. Yes, this debate is a heated one. However, I'm not making any personal insults at Mantis. I'm questioning the credibillity of his poker experience. I think this is fair given how out of line with current thinking his strat is.

If this is a community, then I assume that the community wants to see its players developing and winning.

I agree with that but i feel calling on someone to post results and indeed looking up someones results with the aim to show them up is wrong.
Don't look mine up BTW.........

Oh come on IFM, the information on the MTT results of online screenames is freely available via www.officialpokerrankings.com or the pokerdb.com.

Tighty wants the board to move on. How can it move on as a useful and functional Hand analysis board if we are debating stuff that was worked out on twoplustwo and elsewhere back in 2005?

If you want a hand analysis board where people can stop in to get a pat on the back for folding KK preflop for 115BBs; or where everyone is allowed their little speak without challenge then fair enough. But ye will all be kidding yourselves I'm afraid.

I want the board to develop and this to move on too..two seperate things!

now......where were we?
