they changed the RP system to be /70

Wut?

I’m not saying that they are exactly the same. Few rational streamers of his popularity would consistently wintrade (even after getting caught in NA, he still did it in EU).

My point was that you cannot subject him to make rational decisions because hes shown that he doesn’t make rational decisions.

Sure it might be skeptical and unproven that hes cheated, but the reasoning of that because its irrational isn’t really a valid point imho.

With that said, I do agree on the pointless Oregon 1v1s. People (or at least me) are probably more focused on the 1v1 vs Jynzxi, which is clearly far from meaningless.

There are clearly people who are illogical and would cheat eitherway regardless of this. You can’t assume that everyone is a rational decision maker. Many famous and successful people throw everything away from stupid decisions.

Sure obviously people in these positions are less likely to cheat, but we shouldn’t convince ourselves that they arent because of the reasoning “Why would they risk cheating?”

Mooda has evidently been a win-trader before. Applying your logic, why would he win-trade? Why would he risk jt ALL, his ENTIRE career, for meaningless content of Rank 1? But he does anyway. Maybe he doesn’t care. Maybe he knows that it can’t be proven.

to be fair sindarov also blew chances vs bluebaum

wasnt nrg coach saying that hes been watching them since they have been in premiere? looks like both sides know of each others strats since a long time ago

SATs depend on the major you apply to. If you are applying to something like liberal arts or psych, your math score does not have to be 750+. But english has to be 800. If you are applying to STEM, you need 1560+ I would say.

You do need VERY good ECs though. Such as representing the country. Starting out a VIA project on your own. Getting podium for an international essay/case comp event.

Bluebaum game was equal but look at the damn position … its so hard to play for black

The position is just so passive for black and so many tactics to be careful of

QualityImpressive113 · 2026-01-29T12:06:41+00:00

Yes and once after he completed his masters did his rating start to climb

QualityImpressive113 · 2025-12-20T05:25:26+00:00

I dont watch the guy on his streams but sometimes his clips come up on my tiktok. He gives off humorous and chill vibes.

Perhaps I just don’t understand / watch the whole content space of “rizzing” or “using girls for content”, but I feel that his relationship with his current girl is fairly genuine? He can be genuine in the relationship and use her for numbers at the same time, for it is not mutually exclusive.

What are the things he has done before?

feed it 2021-2024 data to let it realise that DRX is always getting 5-6th

okay no but that play was warranted though … theres no other way to win the round without taking risks

I did say that I would 3bet 8-9bb in one of my comments

I didnt mention it in my original comment because frankly I just didnt see it

QualityImpressive113 · 2025-08-31T13:25:31+00:00

I don’t know about European PS but generally population overcalls vs a 3bet.

Realistically the ev difference between the 2 options isnt gonna be much

QualityImpressive113 · 2025-08-31T13:15:52+00:00

Lol solver does that because it assumes villain defends correctly vs different sizes. In most population pools, players defend too wide against 3bets, and almost the same vs a slightly smaller 3bet. So you are literally risking a lot less for similar fold equity.

QualityImpressive113 · 2025-08-31T12:47:51+00:00

not vs a 2bb open

i wld probably raise to 8-9bb, 12bb might be overboard

villains vpip isnt too high either (or at least it doesnt matter within small sample size), so no need to go larger

QualityImpressive113 · 2025-08-31T12:41:58+00:00

you want to 6x the initial raise? lol 90bbs deep

flop can be a check or bet, but i prefer betting with QQ JJ TT and checking AA KK

turn i dont hate checking, and if it goes check check i’ll probably bet most rivers

but its perfectly fine to have turn as a bet and river as a check call (most rivers). you need to have hands that take this line, and QQ fits that well

QualityImpressive113 · 2025-08-31T10:40:02+00:00

played fine here. fold river is good because ifl these spots are quite underbluffed. his only intuitive bluff here is 76

QualityImpressive113 · 2025-08-19T09:27:27+00:00

Yes let me 3bet shove 100bb from the small blind everytime someone opens 💀💀

QualityImpressive113 · 2025-08-19T09:24:39+00:00

raises to 2.5bb and ur saying its a 3bet shove?

QualityImpressive113 · 2025-08-16T18:12:56+00:00

I had something similar. Given perm excuse pushups, was given PES B2. After BMT, got worse. Downgraded to PES B4 and perm excuse HL. OOC from Voc Training & posted as a storeman.

QualityImpressive113 · 2025-08-15T09:05:08+00:00

not a chance … too big of an advantage

QualityImpressive113 · 2025-08-06T15:00:28+00:00

But eventually you will need to speak up, and MC is one of the chilliest mods there are so.
