| Who is this FT Pro? He sucks... Mario Aldinolfi was a red pro in a 600FTP Satty to the $200K Doubel deuce... running 100/100/100 this whole time. Seen him 3-bet total garbage and go to SD with a pair of twos and a weak flush draw, he kept hitting so I shoved this hand and I was amazed to see 45o there... I dunno. Anyone know anything about this guy?

| Looks like he was the big stack and made a button move. Then with the pushes he had pot odds to call, since he had only another 1200 to call to get almost 3 to 1 with no more betting, since everyone was all in. |

| Not quite sure why he's even considered a full tilt pro...... http://www.fulltiltpoker.com/mario-adinolfi He's a writer, and has only cashed in one major tournament... he took 6th in the WPT Venice / WPT Event Season 8 (WPT No Limit Hold'em Championship) last year. |

Randy Couture is also a red pro over at Full Tilt.. but he puts on a lot of charity events for soldiers at Full Tilt.. maybe that's why he's a red pro. |

| re: Who is this FT Pro? He sucks... poker He is an Italian Player I believe... Italian players are known for bluffing... to them that's their thing about poker... so they will play a lot of hands, and try to bluff their way to victory... so it doesn't surprise me the way this guy played... almost like Dario Minieri. |

| This is how it looked to me, it was hillarious, watch you go into my head and come back out and tell me that that wasn't funny. Tex: Italian players are known for bluffing... to them that's their thing about poker... so they will play a lot of hands, and try to bluff their way to victory... so it doesn't surprise me the way this guy played... Mortis: Umm........He called an all-in with 54..... I wouldn't consider that a bluff. |

| re: Who is this FT Pro? He sucks... poker Pretty sure they encourage their pros to sign up for satellites to big tournaments in order to bump their numbers up. A few times I've seen pros register for a satellite then unregister at the last minute - even when that pro is already entered into the tournament that the satellite is offering seats for. Maybe this guy just didn't unregister in time? Though if it's an FTP buyin rather than a real money one it's likely he's just goofing around. |

| Sean ... that "pro's" actions are confusing, no question, and as Mortis said, calling an all-in isn't much of a "bluff", but didn't you make a mistake yourself? One of your opponents had pocket J's - let me check my chart here ... hold on .... yep! Jacks are much higher than sixes. You either failed to read MP's commitment to his hand (after all he did call), or you were just assuming no one could be better than a pair of lofty sixes ... sorry to be the devil's advocate. Did you apologize to the J's guy for sucking out? |

| only reason why red pros on full tilt actually plays FTP tourneys or micro/low stakes is because they have requirements to fulfill as stipulated in their contracts with FT. basically, they have to spend a X amount of hours at these stakes or tourneys every month. |

| I actually fully checked out the Full Tilt Poker website.. and they have separate lists for "Full Tilt Pros" and "Friends of Full Tilt".... the "friends" aren't FT pros, but still have their names in red. Some of their friends include: Gabriella Hill, Mario Adinolfi, Don Cheadle, Mekhi Phifer, 2007 WSOP Champ Jerry Yang (I guess he doesn't consider himself a pro), Gaming Champion "Fatal1ty," and UFC fighters Matt Hughes and Mike Swick. I also saw Randy Couture's name actually turn red right before a charity tournament that he was putting on in the lobby. But he's not listed on the site. |
