In Response To: How crappy? (adambulldog)

You know, theres a little more to this too. My matches with Adam on GG have been showing him in the mid 3s, 4s and 5s for the most part. I am of the firm opinion that Adam is a very good player, and he is improving very quickly too.

I dont yet put him in the 'stellar' bracket of top tier players, but without a doubt, Adam is an extremely talented player.

As for a snowie of 4.99 in an 11pt match, as far as I am concerned, I think thats a very good ER, and I would be happy with it myself.

So, Adam, you most certainly have my respect, if that means anything to anyone. I also agree with almost all posters on this thread too. Keep playing like that, and you are a contender for the ABT, not only this year, but every year.

I think that something that hasnt been mentioned yet (although Ray may have alluded to it), is that unlike many players (and I mean no disrespect to anyone), Adam certainly has the ability to win his matches - and by that I mean that he certainly isnt scared to win. This is a required quality to win tournaments, and Adam has it.

Oh, and as a side note, every time I see Bennett senior (Ed), I am always impressed with every aspect of his game, and personality. I think Adam has inherited a lot of this.

BUT, I am still gonna kick your ass next time we play young bulldog. :) (and I dont care what my ER is when I do it.)
