Winngy
From PokerAI
Winngy was the third biggest contributor (after support and htc) in the WinHoldEm community, before he publicly retired from the WinHoldEm forums on 5-th of January, 2008.
Main reasons for his retirement, mentioned in his farewell thread, were Ray Bornert's behaviour and actions in year 2007, where he dedicated a lot of time in public activities and promoting the PPRO platform, instead of focusing on delivering value to the WinHoldEm users, and thinking how to better serve the poker botters needs.
Winngy was mostly famous for being extremely helpfull to poker botting newbies. This is examplified by some of the farewall posts Winngy got in response to his retirement, e.g. the one from PokerBandit:

I have been fiddling with WH for 18+ months and read the board lots, most posts are asking for help. There are only a few people that give out advice, these people are the heart and soul of WH. Without question Winngy has been the brightest star that has shone here and for the noobs his departure is catastrophic. Winngy, you are a giant in the botting world, I hope the events that have driven you to leave haven't left you too jaded. All the best. |
After his retirement from WinHoldem forums, Winngy remained active in LabOne forums, and as part of the OpenHoldem community.
