disappointment - and goodbye

[epdaws]

You know, Sam, maybe, just MAYBE, you should understand the following:

1) Your original post, while claiming modesty, immediately declared yourself as a poker deity. It is as if you subconciously WANTED to be asked, "Gee, how much DO you make?"

2) In a forum heavily charged with ego, that question is going to be asked immediately. It was.

3) Instead of re-directing the discussion to your difficulty in deciding whether to go pro, which was ostensibly the point all along, you spouted off with your earnings IMMEDIATELY. No hemming or hawing, no attempt to get back on subject. Almost like you couldn't wait to throw it out there.

4) Then, you act as if such an outlandish claim (of which I am making no value judgement) is going to be easily brushed aside so posters can tend to your other questions. That's naive at best, and dishonest at worst.

If you can't understand all of this, it's your own fault. I enjoyed reading your thoughts on LAG style, and I have no clue if what you are saying is true. But get off the ledge already.
