True View?
 
compare poker to baseball....

baseball players that have been drafted by a MLB team are "pros" even though they're making $40k/yr playing DoubleAA ball in North Dakota.....

I think poker players need to be ranked on the same level.....these players might all be "pros" but on VERY different levels...

Rookie Ball (Jeff Madsen, Randy Jensen)
Single A (E Frolich, Gabe Thaler)
DoubleAA (Mark Vos, Josh Arieh)
TripleAAA (Nam Le, David Singer)
Major Leagues (Hellmuth, Ivey)
Hall of Famers (Doyle, Chip Reese, Cloutier)

I FEEL BAD that these "so called pros" who have been playin poker for 6 months, get lucky and make one final table, want to be compared to 10-time bracelet winners

people like me are what you should be looking for to fill out your minor leagues. No one has ever heard of me, so I fit the criteria.
