He looks like a TAG grinder but has an early-position calling range preflop, mostly calling limps and sometimes calling bets, but generally folding or open-

The macho eye stardown is typically someone full of ****. Experienced it first hand a few times. Makes for fun making fun of them afterwards. What were you thinking staring me down? You wouldn't do that outside of here now would you? It's great. I'd call down.
