running a mile a DAY improves your poker PLAY?
There is no doubt that playing poker regularly can take its toll on you both mentally and physically. I was told by a cardiologist that physical excersize is the number one cure for people with out of control road rage. Now your mentality during a bad driving altercation is nearly identical to a poker player who experiences a bad beat. Therefore staying physicaly fit should enable you to play or A game more consistantly. Anybody disagree?

I dont think there is any doubt...that exercising will keep your mind sharper....and you will feel gererally better. All of which will help to make you a tougher poker player.

I'd agree. I don't work out near enough, but when I do workout, I usually feel much more alert the rest of the day.

Re: ROFLMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I vividly recall film of Garry Kasparov in training, all the swimming he would do. Man that guy was hairy.
David Sklansky must be smarter than Garry Kasparov. What are the odds he's hairier? I should start a new topic for such important questions. |

...
I'm going to say that working out/running and such does infact improve poker play.
My other big hobby other than poker is bodybuilding and when I get in from the gym I find myself making much better and thought out decisions. |
