Default Re: Brag: randomly staked a guy and won $96,600

[ QUOTE ]
The fact is that bustos like luckyjimm are busto for a reason. There is a clear connection between being a dishonest degen and being a losing player. Impatience, short-term thinking, greed, fear, self-hatred, all of these character flaws are as crippling to your bankroll as they are to your friend count. Why do great players have so many friends around them, do you think? It's not just because they are winning...when they are busto they can get stakes because being a great player REQUIRES them to have the foresight and self-control to be trustworthy also. Tufat's point was very well taken, and will be proved over and over again in the gambling community: A friend is better than a dollar. When you're busto again Jimm, think about why it happened and see if you can connect your ability to control your in-game actions with your statements in this thread.

NH to you OP and Hojo.

Too obvious to say anything so just quoting will do it.
