Re: chess or poker
hey. what nationality are you? yea, you're posts make sense to me. im kinda drunk, so please semi-disregard all of the following!!
i suk hard at chess (probably the total idiot ryendal mentioned!), but hope that i am decent in poker. i have been making 2k a week and surviving off of it, but not for too long a period.
to me, chess intuitively requires much more skill. but this is on a basic level. ultimately, at the farthest reaches of the imagination, perhaps poker requires just as much. i have no clue. but i know it's pretty easy to cream donks, and also that i couldnt last 30 seconds against an intermediate club chess player. in terms of results, poker requires infinitely less skill. it is relatively easy to 'do well' at poker. the question needs to be specified, although i do think the discussion has been good.

I think there is an important point. In chess, when you are weak, you understand it very quicly ( unless you are a total idiot ) and you understand where you are weak. Then you are able to increase your level in each weak points.
At poker, it is totally different. It can take a very long time to detect a weak point. Many people do not increase there level because of that. It is very difficult to find your weaks points.
