Best (online) players on 2+2?

[J_V]

I appreciate the mention.

I think a lot of the younger guys that play high limits changed these forums dramatically. James282, the Canterbury crew, DCIFRTHS, a bunch of others that i can't think of, but their are tons of limit holdem guys that think at the very top levels here. The gap at the top is very small and picking the best is hard. Probably the ones that tilt the least and play their best when losing.

You're welcome. I always enjoy your posts in all the forums. You mentioned your view on the Holdem guys. What to you think about Omaha?

[J_V]

Thank you, I enjoy your posts as well.

I think the omaha forum gives the worst, most weak tight advice. They don't put enough action in on any street. CeroZ is a great poster and gergery posts well too. But overall, I feel like I'm fighting a current trying to convince people to put money in the pot over there.

If I get any good ideas, I hope to post some soon on both holdem and omaha. The stuff I think about now is more psychological though - trying to work on ways to play well when running bad for short and long periods.

Amongst "regular" posters in MTT:

MLG, Sirio11, they both participate regularly.

For those who aren't regular anymore, but still post occasionally, Strassa, ZJ, Colson10, iMsoLucky0, Shaniac.

I definitely forgot at least 1 person. If you are reading this, I'm sorry.

gg,

Yeah, I'm pretty much serious. I mean, there are many smart, skilled players out there who I'm sure would be challenging opponents. But come on, man, it's just poker.

As for why I don't concentrate more of my efforts on beating the highest limit poker games around, I hope you get a chance someday to find out that there is much more to life than poker. And, in the grand scheme of things, poker is pretty boring.

rvr,

I am not even in that ballpark, but if I get there someday, it's definitely not going to be from poker. Overall, though, I have far less money than I might now, because I never really have focused much on making as much money as possible. I have enough such that I can eat, drink, and live well. I don't even have enough to buy a house I really like, though, so I'm going to have to work for a while longer.

NL,

I think I'm now two companies away from 50M! Though I really should have over 50M now, but that's a whole other story that we don't like to talk about! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Your point about poker not being too important in the grand scheme of things is very true. I lose perspective on that sometimes.

On the other hand, realize that i am humbly going to disagree with you. Guys liek schneids probably spend less time playing or thinking about poker than you do, it's certainly not his life. And i would tend to think guys like him and Nikla would have an edge over you in LHE, though my only rational is that they are able to play some of the highest games sucessfully without dedicating their lives to poker. This does not mean you are not that man [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

And it's also just some 18 year olds opinion, so i know your not gonna lose a wink of sleep over it.
