Default Re: are players ever just \"not smart enough\" to move up?

Great question.

For the people who are overrolled I think it's because they feel more stress and/or are scared of getting busto. Not everyone's bank roll requirements are 20 buyins or 500BB. They still want to enjoy poker and at the same time make money.

And what makes poker so hard for other people is ignorance, and I'm not saying that to twoplustwo'ers themselves but to the rest of the world. It's really hard for people to sit down and say " I suck, so I better get down and study this game". For the people who do the study the game and still aren't capable of winning, it's analagous to people in school. Not everyone will graduate with a great gpa even if they put thier 100% effort into it.

Everyone is different and that's how life is.
