Andrew Black

TigersBunker

On full tilt now, two tabling 6 max 400 cap PLO, just raising and reraising preflop evry hand with air and if its not all in doing so on flop. Is he drunk, is that his game, or can he just not play omaha?? Very strange!!

I don't know the guy, but from TV he seems like a freak and very weird dude.

He's won a couple of hundred grand on Omaha in the past few years.

options:
1 Drunk possible but think he doesn't drink
2 Cultivating a wild image ? cheaply ?
3 Is this something that will be publicised? The high vis players are adopting strange strategies to make themselves look different from the way they really are.
The Aussie millions is o TV almost every day and he is as tight as Moses MacTavish of Cavan Town.

QFT.

Only met him twice and both times he was three sheets to the wind. Absolutely mangled drunk.

Ah I've tangled with Andy a few times over the years and the man is usually rock solid. If he's being super aggressive it's to take advantage of this image.

Lovely man, and I'd gladly have him on any table with me since it means I can at least know who to avoid in a pot.

He looks homeless imo

Yeah maybe someone should take him aside and have a quiet word with him about the way he looks?

Seriously folks the guy has won nearly $4 million from live poker and gets slagged off on here. I dont know Andy well at all and I think he looks very respectable in the above photo cos I aint really sure what a homeless person looks like really...

Another worthwhile post from our esteemed colleague Valor..

Yes he drinks, no hes not tight and no I dont think he gives a fiddlers about blowing off a bit of steam in a 5/10 game with a 40bb cap

C'mon now, he does look homeless. And always wears the same top! He's a top class player though.

In fairness the whole story should be posted if Valor is too be credited with anything other than not being able to handle the ol jar imo.

No I heard he did every penny he owned in one pot, and has now quit poker and become teetotal, before travelling to africa to help all the poor people.
