Default Re: Is rakeback really how most players make their $ ?

[ QUOTE ]

I find hard to accept that people are able to use some of these advance strategies described here or are able to compute the odds and equities of every hand when they are running twelve tables at a time, playing 400 to 500 hands an hour.

Is this the truth?

Yes.

To paraphrase Doyle Brunson "I figured out the math on all the plays years ago, now I just make them and can't remember why."

The key is quantity here. When you're seeing thousands of hands a day 99.9% of situations you've seen before and, even if you can't figure your equity to 73.2%, its familiar and you know what to do. Raise... next table.

Like that.

Multi-tabling is a skill in itself. Learn to play poker first, and if you want to multi-table, slowly add tables until you are comfortable with x tables at the same time. It can be done.
