STRANGE COINCIDENCE OR just too much time on my hands?

jonnyrkd

Hi

Either this is really weird or like I said I have too much time on my hands but here goes:

I recently played a 11 quid heads up SNG against a player called:

JONNYRKID

So just one letter different from my not so common name so I thought I'd look him up on sharkscope.

Strangely he has only ever played one game on sky in his whole career and it was against me,

small world!

Ive stared at your post for 10 minutes, It is a bit wierd.

There is a jonnyrkd1 too and spookily a jonnyrip.

Luckily, theres a jonnyrus so things r looking up.

youre not the only one with too much time..

Haha jonny rip is apt about my poker career sometimes!

There must be someone here who does this as some kind of weird joke. 

In 2013 I was sitting at micro HU STTs taking on all-comers when pretty much the same thing happened. To my amazement a player called KevQQQ sat and played a couple of games against me. He didn't chat, played awfully and lost both games. I mentioned it in my 1,000 poker points to £1,000 challenge diary at the time.

When I looked him up afterwards I saw it was the first two games he'd ever played on Sky. I've just looked him up again, he hasn't played since. Very strange.

If jonnyrkd, a regular who has played over 8,500 games on Sky, had two accounts and was playing against himself for some reason I'm sure he wouldn't draw attention to it by posting here. I definitely wouldn't.

Its maybe someone who wants to emulate the way you play poker, so they go total psycho copycat and use your name as well!

Especially if GaryQQQ has had the same thing... I would take it as a compliment

that said, I'm still waiting to play smileytop.


PS. good to see your still playing Jonny lad, all the best.

perhaps it a sky secutity  bot that gathers info , does ping tests , monitors timing tells, looks for anomolies in your play etc.

They name the bot similar to the person thats being scrutinized , cos thats how they roll, sort it out sky
