<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mikem2000, post: 1482135, member: 30574&quot;]Jason my friend, </p><p><br /></p><p>I tried to be subtle, as did Paul, but some folks just really need to be hit over the head by a 2x4.</p><p>First off, My credentials.&nbsp; I don&#039;t play much any more, but I have played over 100,000 hands of poker.&nbsp; Most of it was on line, but a lot was live.&nbsp; I used poker tracker to track the on-line play, so I know my figures are accurate.&nbsp; The first thing I can tell with the experience of 100,000 hands in the rear view mirror, is judging by your talk, I know for a fact is you have not played 100,000 hands, in fact not anywhere close.</p><p>Now I am not saying I am a great poker player, Because I am not, but I do have a positive win rate.&nbsp; It just is no where near good enough to earn a living.&nbsp; The truth is I could make more money at Walmart.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now for the part that will be hard for you to swallow.&nbsp; I have no idea if you wear sun glasses or not, but right now, you ARE a FISH.&nbsp; It is possible that with you have a good feel for the game and can become a good player, but you are not there.</p><p><br /></p><p>How do I know:</p><p><br /></p><p>1) You mis managed you bankroll and that is very important for a poker player. Bad bankroll management = FISH</p><p>2) You blamed you losses in AC because you were playing with Nit Wits and walked away from the table.&nbsp; That is the kind of game you WANT to be in.&nbsp; Bad game selection = FISH</p><p>3) You bragged about you skill at the table from a single session.&nbsp; You confused a good run of cards with skill and that =FISH.&nbsp; Skill is measured over the long term.</p><p>4) You claimed a 70 % win rate which is impossible, so I have to conclude you do not know your win rate.&nbsp; A good player knows his win rate.&nbsp; A player who does not = FISH</p><p><br /></p><p>I am sure you will not like this post, but my hope is you will learn from it, but either way I am sure you will remember it.</p><p><br /></p><p>Best of luck to ya.</p><p>Mike[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
