One of our newest Leggo coaches, boywonder, has ventured into
The Cage to answer all of your questions about him and his poker game. I mention this for a few reasons.
Ben posts screen shots of his success and claims to win at rates that people hadn't won at over large samples since 2007. Because of the nature of making poker videos, he has decided not to make public his screen name on his primary poker site(s). This is a decision which we respect here at Leggo: from my experience in working with Ben, his ability to articulate thoughts make him a valuable asset making videos at any stakes on any site (or power point videos, of course).
However, Ben has decided to release the name of his screen name to me. I have cross checked with his HEM and PTR in ways that I feel comfortable putting my reputation behind his results.
Ben has indeed won greater than six figures over several hundred thousand hands at mid-stakes for a winrate of over 4 PTBB/100 (spanning over about the last 6 months, sick work ethic). These numbers, as well as his primary site(s) are kept intentionally vague to protect his identity (maybe his screen name should be Clark Kent?). I am flattered that he choose me as the keeper of this information and I'm also flattered that he feels my reputation is strong enough to fight the naysayers.
I'm very excited that Ben has agreed to become a Leggo coach since he was so sought after-- I felt like we signed a prized free agent. He gets added to such a stacked roster. I hate to toot our own horn (I don't actually hate it at all), but Leggo is crushing shorthanded NLHE cash games. What a bunch of great additions grogheadflow, shootaa, boywonder and oldjude have been to an already stacked roster.
