<p>[QUOTE="JCB1983, post: 1318520, member: 23885"]LOL... I may be waaaaayyy over my head in the coin industry. I had to get a kick out of your comment and your references to poker though. As it stands, my college, my wife’s car, my TV. couch I'm on, much of my coins, and even the computer I am on are all paid for by playing high stakes poker. If you want to look up my stats just go to Sharkscope.com and lookup JohnnyCashout. I played 1/2 No I think twice and then moved on to 2/5. After 3 weeks I was playing 5-10, and then onto 10-20. Swimming with supposed sharks at a card table didn't hold a lick compared to riding in the back of a bread truck into downtown Fallujah. Well enough with sticking my chest out. I do realize that the coin world is different. It's more refined, more distinguished. It requires a much slower pace, more investigating. A keen eye, the right perception, extreme patience, knowledge on market trends, as well as years and years of intense research, and trial and error. Although I haven't experience all of this, I can see this. Every time you turn a page in unlocking a mystery there is another page! Especially in ancients. The history is amazing. I believe you misinterpreted my statement earlier. I never said I would master anything in a few months, I merely stated that I would focus on intense studying for the next 3 months rather than buying. To me the coin world is much more challenging than the Poker world. If I check raise my set on the flop and a guy draws out on me, that's partly on me, and partly on luck. On the other hand if I make a bad purchase in the coin world that is entirely up to me! No, bad luck about it. I'll get on with my rant since it is past midnight, but I guess what I'm saying is that I observed, and understand what you are saying. I spend so much time on CT, because I realize that the purchase is totally on me, and I must learn as much as possible.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
