refered to as cruel, because I like to set traps (I cant help it) lol trying to learn Spanish so the name means ‘the boy devil’
#2 How would you define your style of play?
Generally tight aggressive but I like to ‘change gears’ a lot.

Deposited £5 on skypoker, built it to £30 within 2 days. 4th place in rb freeroll, 4th in 160 person botc. I’m still young lol
#4 what brought you to join railbirds in the first place, and what keeps u here ?
I was playing a UK freeroll when asked if I was a railbird. I stay to learn and hopefully to help others, and I like meeting new people from around the world

Gus Hanson
#6 how have you improved your game...was it by lots of practice, was it by books you have read and if so, which books, was it by playing live ??
LOTS of practice. About to read Doyle Brunsons Super System, also Breaking Vegas for a little leisure read
#7 Who are 5 players you look up to on railbirds and why?
1. t9parabellum – My clan leader (the undead) and good rb friend, she’s a real strong player and I respect her a lot. Plus she’s German which is cool haha
2. topcat1954 – He’s been in the game a long time and really knows his stuff. Read a lot of his blogs and trying to learn some things.
3. StormLindgren – Another great player who I’d be constantly watching when at the same table. She brings a lot to this community too
4. FundelMental – makin a lot of nice tourney finishes.
5. RicoSlim – Watched him turn $6 into $3750 in the 750K game on
full tilt br /> #8 My cash game needs big time improvement. I’m a tourney player and want to become cash player but I just lose money in the process

Ring games. not making silly decisions after about 3 hours of play in a tournament

Betting patterns. An all-in post flop without any action before them. Position betting on 4th street when checked to them on flop and turn.

I don’t know yet. However I tend to play better when I have railers as it keeps me focussed.
