Default Re: $3 Million Downsizing.............

thank you, bustedromo. Excellent BR/psych analysis for all players.

It reminds me of Rounders and the argument between Mikey & Joey Knish. Mikey is the young hotshot who wants to be the best, so he risks his whole roll vs. Teddy KGB. Knish is the grinder who exercises proper BR management and makes a comfortable living, but he will never achieve glory.

Mikey needs to push the envelope, so he cannot grind. Different kinds of men play the game for different reasons. Younger men especially need to prove themselves and take outsized risks, which means they are much likelier to have meteoric rises and crashes. see: Icarus
