Aplasto is not the correct verb to use. It is a direct translation of crush, in the sense of crushing a can or a tomato or something and implies flattening. "No soy jugador, simplemente gano frecuentemente". Source: am native spanish speaker who did all my schooling in LATAM.

I think more appropriately would be. "No soy jugador, me encapricho frecuente." I wanted to use enamorar but that's more passionate than crush.

Edit: autocorrect

I'm not a Spanish speaker, but I think Pun's meaning of "crush" is getting lost in translation. I would say definition 3 from this slang dictionary is the most accurate.

Edit: Now that I think about it, "crush" was the lyric in the radio edit. In the unedited version he says outright "... I just fuck a lot."

I was only familiar with the edited version for years & was a little disappointed when I heard the original. "Crush" is a better lyric. It's a double entendre and doesn't sound so... thirsty? I'm also not a Spanish speaker, but would think a proper translation should infer the playfulness of that double meaning.

Thanks. Corrected. I want to give some excuse about my memory not being what it used to be, but I should have gotten that one right.
