Default Re: disappointment - and goodbye

Good post(s). I think that your inclination to self reflect on your inability to laugh in off, etc. To be critical of yourself in that way (analysing yourself rather than bitching and complaining about the actions of others), is probably one of the keys that make you a good player.

I am older than most here, and only at the bottom level of mid stakes play, but aspire to continue rising. Your posts have been an inspiration to me personally.

Many of the posters here, although good players at higher levels of play, are not wise beyond their years in character. I understand your decision and respect it but would like to ask you to reflect upon that fact. A ~21yr old earning ~150K part time while in school is generally not going to be the most humble of human beings. It is nothing personal.

If you can seperate yourself from the little backbiting posts you will further develop your (from what I can glean from your posts) admirable character, which in turn will translate to improved poker skill.

Cheers!
