Yeah he is a loose player, but when he calls with these "shitty hands"he is sending a message to the table.Players make a note not to try and bluff him as he is likely to call...also the fact that he is very loose pre flop means it is hard for any one to get a read on him..and then his post flop play is what really sets him apart.I dont understand how you can criticise him "sammy the brick",if he is a calling station then there is no way he'd have the success he does in tourneys and cash games.OK then Sammy the brick how do you account for his success??
