How depressing to read. Thanks for the link. If you live in Canada, check out cgtv's show called 'beyond the felt'. They always repeat the same show where live pros talk about the reality of being a poker player. It's basically saying the same thing as this article but featuring interviews with mike the mouth, antonio, laak, and a few others.

the story sounds made up. not that it isn't probably the true story of alot of live players, it just seems way too honest and open. i mean i guess it's possible that some pro would admit to sucking at life and that most winning 200nl players are better at poker than him minus his lucky tourney score...just kind of suprising that they admit it.

It's kind of hard to believe that a live "face" would gush so much about online players. They just don't do that. Even though it's all pretty much true.

And yteba, you're talking about Garry Bush. This isn't him, I can assure you.
