Player types - which Star Trek character are you?

Started as an aside to a BorinLoner HH with Trekkie names used.

Thought I'd open it up for some Poker chat...

Kirk - definitely a LAG risk taker - thinks he will and usually does get away with outrageous moves
Spock - definitely pure mathematical player
Bones - Very timid - cares too much about his chip stack tight and very passive
Scotty - Understand the mechanics of the game and can improvise in difficult situations. Emotional - liable to tilt
Uhuru - good communicator - gets good reads and talks you out of hands you should be winning
The uncredited security guard/lieutenant - definitely a newb who isn't going to last long

Any more?

    Sheldon Cooper - rigidly logical &  extremely stubborn to shift off a hand.

    Klingon- hangs around for ages and is quite irritating.

    For TNG fans...


    The Borg - they assimilate your chips. Resistance is futile.

    Data - dont even bother playing him, makes Phil Ivey look average.

    Doctor Beverley 'Crusher' - name says it all!

    Worf - Agressive!

    'Q' - chirps a lot, annoying.

    Troy - soul reader

    Definitely a generation effect here - I am having to google some of these answers

    Though I suppose with the latest batch of films my character choices could mean I am a fresh faced 18 year old?

    An MTT From Star Trek Voyager..?

    The Seven of Nine: difficult to connect with, chatbox facility severely compromised, but fantastic structure.

    I only played a character in Star Trek for a Sky Poker TV Special, & Rich Orford was in it, too.

    Blowed if I can remember the name of the character I played, but I was brilliant, though surprisingly, no Oscar came my way.

    It'll be hidden away in the depths of You Tube somewhere.

     Would definitely put myself down as the one person in the away team who you dont recognise. Only purpaoe is to die and make the others look good.


     Few other options.

     Wesley Crusher: highly intelligent and opinionated. Your only desire though is to see them lose so they will leave

     Majel Barrett: Keeps turning up different everytime you see them and never stays long enough for you to understand.

     Geordi : Come on x-ray specs how can he possibly lose

     Khan : Vastly superior, creates a love to hate reaction. But fundamentally flwed

    Counsellor Deanna Troi: in tune with the general mood in the community, and likes to put out a lot of feeler bets.

    And sequewaying from Star Trek to Quantum Leap via Scott Bakula who was in both...

    Quantum Leap's Sam Beckett: always betting for information, to find out where he is.

    Lol - so true this, when there was someone in the away team that was some 'random' that you had never seen before, you would just automatically think 'he's going to die then'

    But he would always put right what once went wrong.....so would obv jump in before that 'one outer' hit the river card to knock you out of a tournament on the bubble....and change it to a brick/safe card.

    Actually, AL could be in the RNG now having fun!!

    For DS9 fans

    Odo - Changes style of play throughout the game

    Quark - The tightest player in history, would die rather than give up his chips
