Re: Raj doesn't like Grog
I have been accused several times that I only post replies when it comes to defending FlaviusO. Well this time, my post doesn't have anything to do with him. I read the whole thread and I feel that all this bashing Grog is facing now is pretty unfair. Not only is he a nice person, but he is a great coach (at least from my point of view). I used to play like shit b4 watching Grog's videos, but once I started watching them and applying some of the lines he was talking about in certain spots raised my wr significantly. He motivated me (and I bet I am not the only one) and I can say that he is actually the only coach whose videos and explanations are 300% clear even for a beginner, let alone someone who is already advanced in NLH strategy (sorry, don't mean to offend anyone).
I would have certainly understood the purpose of this thread if Grog was some looser who pretended to play poker like a God. But when this guy put his entire soul in all the videos he made, trying to teach others what they wouldn't have been able to teach themselves in 2 years of grinding, I find it sad that he is bashed like that.
I don't have anything against Rajmaster and neither am I trying to flame the thread more than it already is, but I think he should put himself in Dan's position. I don't think Dan makes a fortune coaching Leggo members and I do not think it is way more profitable to him making videos for this community instead of focusing on his own grinding. Having said these, I can only wish Grog will stay here with us and not get too upset about people who misjudge him.

Re: Raj doesn't like Grog
im pretty sure it was well documented that flaviuso claimed to win at 7ptbb and a couple of people outed his screen names and he was obviously lying. His profile even says "pm me for coaching" which is a direct contradiction to what he is saying itt. I'm too lazy to spend time verifying/ digging up proof something like this because i don't care enough about such a trivial matter, but i am 100% sure its true. I even remember someone making an xtranormal video about it.
I'm also pretty sure that i have a stellar reputation on w/ leggo and 2p2 despite being a dick at times, i don't think anyone can accuse me of making shit up or doing anything fraudulent. I'm also not even korean dumbfucks.

Not from what I know, you had a prob bet with 80k hands / month at 1/2 and 2/4, you couldn't do the number and then you completed the number of hands at lower stakes, breaking the rules and you angled me of 100$ and other members as well, if I remember well, Probability investigated the case but I never got an answer so I chose to let it go but would never prob bet with you after that incident given your dubious reputation.
FlaviusO was discussing the optimal 3bet %, some agreed that 5% is a little small, some disagreed, but it was a decent conversation until you came and flamed on with some ridiculous accusations and he snapped, bad klink-!
@everyone
Grog is a good coach and a good player, the kind of player you don't want at your tables, he has a lag aggressive style, the poker of the future style, I had the privilege to play against him in his nl100 vid on stars and trust me he is tough.Sure some concepts presented by him may not apply to low stakes, but if you're a good thinking player you'll now what to take and apply from a Grog vid.

Re: Raj doesn't like Grog
im pretty sure i won that bet just played more than 6 tables, which weren't even in the initial rules of the bet, but something that i mentioned that i probably wouldn't do but ended up doing so decided to call it a draw instead of pressing the issue (among other reasons). Ive made and lost multiple props well over $1k and paid up asap, i highly doubt i need to angle out out of a pathetic $100 dollars even though it might be a good chunk of your bankroll. I'm sure a bunch of leggo coaches (craig, greg, rob, james, denny) would vouch for me here based on previous dealings with them (i currently have a 1k bet w/ denny w/ no escrow fwiw). I also took over 10k worth of action in this years wsop from leggo members who could vouch for my credibility. At the end of the day you are still a random, I'm not sure why you are even talking to me.
