I thought the same until he had such a good showing this year. I'm not saying he's a top 10 player, but he's no donk either. Link to post Share on other sites

He was lucky, but he realized that you had to get lucky to win. So I guess he maximized his chances by taking chances early to amass a huge stack, then dominating from there on out.

It may not be the quality of the two Harrington books, but I'm sure he has some insight to offer. Link to post Share on other sites

dmb41 0 Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 I think last year you could have made a case he got lucky to win but after making a final table plus finishing 20 out of 5619 this year is enough to say he is a good tournament player. Link to post Share on other sites

LAS22 0 Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 There is nothing wrong with a little luck, we have all hit cards that we were lucky on. Raymer has skill and his hit a good streak of luck the last couple of years. I'd read the book. Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think i would buy the book but if it was given to me as a gift i'm sure i'd look through it. Link to post Share on other sites
HoosierAlum 0 Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 Raymer is a genius at accumulating a deep stack in large multi-table tournaments. He honed this skill online, and it has translated well for him in live play. Of course you have to gamble and get lucky to win any poker tournament, let alone the main event. The truth is, if 95% of poker players got the same luck as Raymer had the past 2 years, their results would be NOWHERE NEAR Raymers. He is a world-class tournament poker player. Period.

HoosierAlum 0 Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 Oh, 1 more thing I forgot. In last years main event, Raymer got "lucky" by winning more than his fair share of coin-flips. It has been well documented that Raymer hardly ever sucked out in 4 or 5 days of tournament poker. Winning coin flips doesnt make you a donkey, sucking out does. Link to post Share on other sites
TobyOrNotToBe 0 Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 HE'S BETTER THAN THE JEALOUS HATERS ON HERE BY FAR. RAYMER IS NOT TOP 10 BUT TWO GREAT ME'S BACK TO BACK STANDS ON IT'S OWN. Link to post Share on other sites

PFunk 0 Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 I heard Raymer is going to write a book, and honestly i think if he does, and really takes the time with it (which i think he will/would) it would be one of the best tournament books out there....Not because i think he is the greatest player or anything, i just think he's good at analyzing and good with strategy, and seems like he would be very good at relaying that information on paper, and it would probably be a pretty fresh analysis of tournament play these days-P.
