Most passive player i have ever seen...

[micloren]

Currently im sitting at a shorthanded table with the most passive player i have ever seen.

This guy:

Never raises
Calls down everything to the river if he's in a hand
Only folds preflop (which he does fold half the time)
Always limps

Here is the best part:

NEVER bets.
Doesn't bet a set
Doesn't bet top pair with top kicker
If he has TP and its checked to him on the button he will check it to the river.

his name is ohpleeeze on pokerstars

Even if he flopped a royal flush ... he'd probably just check it to the river

yep, pretty passive:

Heh he just rivered a boat on me when i hit trips ... he finally raised me.

We'll see how passive he stays when I keep skoolin' him:

[micloren]

I made a bad play with that Ace ... thought the guy was check raising on the draw. Maybe i got a little too aggressive

Fartalito pretty passive also.

I didn't even realize you were at the table till you posted heh.

[micloren]

Sometimes i forget that trying to outplay people at .5/1 just doesn't work...

I figured it out ...

A call for ohpleeeze is like a raise for him

[micloren]

I dont even bet against this guy anymore unless i have something...

Scotty ... any constructive criticism would definately help since you seem to be playing flawless...

[micloren]

Sometimes you think someone would have a certain hand ... then you look back and all that pops into your head is "????"

My guess ... is that he decided to stay for the gutshot after the turn came.

BTW ... scotty folded QQ on this hand.

"Micloren, I'm not leaving this table until we have all the money"

- Hah ... my thinking too. I'd be over 40 if it werent for that 25s

- Lets not forget my mixing it up with 89 and looking like a donk (which maybe i am).

[micloren]

What to do? ... bad fold?

Sometimes i debate whether or not these people are trying to pull a fast one on me but ... 80% of the time the reraise on the turn means they have it.
