The Liar
The Liar is 85th on the list of biggest poker winners tracked by HighstakesDB. The data is based on 385304 hands played and his total cash game profits amount to $1,004,030.
"The Liar" is an unidentified player whose account is registered in Thailand.
"The Liar" plays PLO cash games, mostly at $25/$50 and $50/$100 although we have seen him play as high as $200/$400 in the past depending on the line-up of players. He seems to sit short-stacked at the tables using it as an advantage against the players who sit deeper. He managed to reach the $1 million profit mark by May 2012. Furthermore, for a player who solely focuses on PLO, he has not had any major downswings since we started tracking him which is in itself a remarkable achievement.
The player may originally be from Thailand or may have moved there to play poker. A few high stakes pros such as Sebastien "Seb86" Sabic and Alex "BiatchPeople" Luneau spend a few months a year in Thailand as its a great place to relax and party (plus play poker in the nice climate) so "The Liar" could quite possibly have re-located there from another country where online poker may be illegal or highly taxed.
