Default Re: a lot to talk about

You seem like a very nice guy so I am going to give it to you straight:

(this is from when weve played back in june/july)
I think you are way too loose and I think your game has alot of holes in it.

You obviously have given this alot of thought and are a smart person. Whenever i play with you, youve seemed like a guy who really enjoys playing poker and even when you were getting torched you kept a good attitude in the chat. I believe that you have the capabilities of being a strong player, but I do not believe that you are currently a strong player. I would consider you a very loose caller. It is very easy to induce bluffs out of you on the turn, and to rebluff you with draws. For instance, my standard line against you if i had a flush draw on flop, is to try and check=raise the turn allin because i know you will bluff at it often. i found you very easy to read.

How many hands do you have and what is your winrate, if you want to tell? We have all ran good for 80K hands and thought we were God. It comes the other way, trust me. There is nothing more humbling then breaking even over 40k hands.

If quitting your job means that you wont get it back, then please dont. This is a very bad idea.

I suggest you continue to play as a hobby and try to improve. From what ive seen (june/july) i really wouldnt have pegged you as a winning player.

form your effort/background, again, i think you CAN be a winning player though.

just my 2 cents.
