Phew, good thing you posted this. I would have sworn this was a post pointing out his flaws and reducing his talent to something you find insignificant. Good thing you cleared that up

ahaha

lol why do people need someone to be humble. Wobbles speaks his mind and i respect him for that. 93% of people start playing poker because they secretly think they are awesome anyway. maybe im confusing ego and arrogance though.

woobly's a little asian nerd, he should be allowed to ego it up a little when he can. He should also take some steriods and gain some real life confidence and physical success, not joking.


That said I know very little about him, just got the tells he gives off.

this. I absolutely think wobbly feels the need to boost his ego at things he definitely can't at. even if he's an unattractive person, or socially awkward, it certainly makes sense that an individual should thrive on something - this being poker.

Regardless, good for him. His personality? No idea, never met him. Doesn't seem like the sort of guy I'd ever like to hang out with, but whatever. His skills? Absolutely good. Thankfully, that's what he bases his identity on. It is sort of sad to see that he bases his complete success on the account of poker alone (and not his.... *life*?), but whatever. Those crazy aussies!

I'm sure wobbly is a smart guy, and some-day he'll get some self-esteem and not respond to threads like this with a *pre-approved I'M FUCKING AWESOME* seal, but in the mean-time I hope the guy does well at wtfever he's doing.

Marshall? whole different post. Very similar sentiments though.

LMFAO, original post ... wobbly who ?

You got your facts all messed up OP, wobbly was a Wc3 pro not a Sc pro

oh and chipdumping (on tourneys) rule is retarded in 1st place, don't go reporting someone 100x your net worth/life worth just to make you a feel a lil better by trying to bring them down a notch

it was pretty good, shoudnt have deleted it !

ok then since I have the support from my favorite hero here... I ll post it again

But i still feel it is kinda uncool towards woobly

Brilliant writing


"their social range are extremely well balanced and thus they end up being loved by everybody"

best line, lol

this is so weird.

you spent 1hr, after a tournament win, writing up something about someone you dont know/someone who doesnt effect you.

what are your motivations for doing this?

most people feel a lot better about themselves if they can needle / bring down someone else. It's just something not many openly admit. OP does a cute job of sugar-coating it though, 2 thumbs up pal!

I will teach you a guide about "social guide". Think of it as the newbie guide, FROM 7 FIGURES TO SOCIAL LIFE, same as we have for stacraft. So wobbly listen because such education might not come everyday : When talking to anyone, you are playing against a RANGE of people. Some of them are dumb, other are smart, some are egoistic, others dont care etc. So lets analyse your play against different common range : - For the dumb people, you just look like a incredibly pedantic guy. It is like coming to a black reggae party and shouting I AM GENETICALLY THE SUPERIOR RACE I WON SO MANY RACE SUPERIORITY CONTEST I AM THE RACIAL KING. And anyway, how good your "proof" of smartness is, they wont get it so eitehr will think you lie or just think you are an asshole. In IRL you would be beaten to death. Just trashed on forum. Much better I agree. However from experience personalities from forum tends to reflect real life personalities, minoring eventual IRL shyness So very bad play versus this range. - Versus the smart guys range, those that won awards as well, ranked national in SC with few training, being generally talented in everything etc. you just sounds like someone that has self esteem issue and need to prove himself. The more you try to prove yourself, the more pathetic it get. The only thing you show us is that you have not learn this basic social skill that even if you think you outsmart everybody, it is almost always better to not show it off. Even in interview or dating where YOU HAVE to show that you are smart the indirect way is much more efficient. Trying to sell it outright is overselling yourself. So basically no matters how good your poker skills are, you sound like that dumb autistic guide that can paint the eiffel tower blindfolded but can not talk. Meaning your intellect seems to be limited to some specific aera I suggest you spend some time optimising your ranges in differents situations. Take a look a our others LP heroes, their social range are extremely well balanced and thus they end up being loved by everybody Of course you might not even care about opinion. But that would be an obvious lie, since the mere fact that you spend many lines trying to justify yourself of your skill imply that you do care enough to try and earn some social whatever No hate mate !
