you guys arent comparing barry greenstein and gus hanson as the same type of player are you? to me, gus is loose and fast. i see barry as more of a dan harrington type. from what i've seen, barry tightens up significantly when at a table with negreanu or estfandiari or hanson or matasow. those guys play a much looser/faster game than barry.

and when barry shoves something pf in a 100k cash game, i doubt it's going to be 57s (something very likely to have sammy dominated for sure), and i'm pretty sure that he's not trying to steal the blinds. and i am pretty sure that sammy knew that, too.

but the point is, if the biggest of the big arent afraid of AA when they hold KK (they are still trying to get it in), then, neither should a 25 player.

maybe i havent watched enough, but from what i've seen, i would hardly call barry a lag. more like a solid tag...yet capable of doing some goofy shit, every once in awhile.
