This is going to be a short and hopefully entertaining story about MF, also know as Tony W.  I had to write this article because he took down our friday game and MF'd a bunch of folks, including me.

It all started a few years ago, when I went over and played at  Poker Dave's game.  Many of you may remember Poker Dave, he has since moved on to Fairbanks and I am sure is taking down games in that town. Poker Dave is another legend in the anchorage poker circuit, with his fro wig, glasses, and endless stream of *** talking.

Anyway, MF and Uncle Wally(MF's Uncle) played over there every weekend.

If my memory serves me correctly this is where the nickname of MF orginated, I am am not sure who coined it but it caught on quick.

 He would call allins with inside straight draws and an ace and hit, call with a flush draw and hit, he could not not miss and still doesn't. He would do this to put  folks out of the tourney. You could hear the murmurs of the people that had just gotten busted saying "How did he call that with x(x usually less 5) outs that ***" with a smile on their face.

This kind of thing would happen every week, people be getting up from their chair "That ***."  MF would just reply, "Sorry Man, Good Game" in his sincere way.

This guy was amazing, odds did not mean anything, he would get the feel that the cards were coming and if you ever got called by the MF, you knew you were ahead but if it was not the river you knew you were losing.

I have been MF'd countless times, if he was not such a great guy I would be mad at him and not invite him anymore.  It is funny that when you get MF'd  you are suppose to be sad and mad, caused you just got rivered on a 2 outter, but you could not feel happier that you got MF'd.

He is the one guy I fear going all in against, he has this magical power to sense the cards that are coming.  So he has two unders to your high pp, you are losing and you know it. 

That is what happen in our most recent game I have 77 and about 750 left out of 1500, I go all in UTG, it is folded around to MF, please fold, please fold.  Oh no he calls, I am like you got two overs, nope he flips over 54 and I was about to get MF'd and I knew it.  I basically get up from the table cause my walking sticks are no good.  The flop comes 594, dam.  The turn is a 6, wow now I have alot more outs, can I actually out draw MF, nope the turn is a 5 and he hits a FH with two unders. 

I know that all of you that have played with MF have been MF'd out of a tourney, it is one of those weird things in life where you are suppose to feel anger and depression, but when you get MF'd you feel part of some special group, the anger and depression seem to turn into joy that you just got MF'd.

Keep MF'n MF
