Re: How Many Losing Players Think They\'re Good Players?

Don't confuse winning with good, or losing with bad.

Re: PokerStars Sunday Million $100 Reload Promo

You would think that in the current uncertain legal environment bonus offers would get better.

Re: Starting a new PT Database for psychological reasons.

I start new PT databases often.
