I suck at poker. I'm better at gutting fish with less clue than me, so I'll just take the cash for now [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

You have a point. Coming up with a new name for 'hud-assisted internet donkey punching' might be a step in the right direction, because poker is not really what I do.

Wow, my journeyman post [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

Pics of hot chicks in swimwear is the only thing keeping this from being the perfect post.

I'm totally dating myself here as the "Meow, Chow, Meow" is a quote of Henrietta Pussycat from the Neighborhood of Make-Believe off of the Mr. Rogers Neighborhood children's show. Henrietta would speak English mixed in with Meow, Chows, like "The mail has arrived, Meow, Chow, Meow, King Friday" as she would be addressing King Friday, the King of the Neighborhood of Make-Believe. This link breaks it all down. Now it has become this strange thing from my early childhood that my friends and I use at times when someone is spewing jibbierish.

Everytime I read a post that says, "What are you a 18/12/1.5 or a 23/15/2.0"? I hear, "Meow, Chow, Meow, I can't play poker, Chow, Meow, Chow." etc.

I was a little drunk after coming home from the Sox game and was sick of reading this stuff, thus the original post.

You don't use a HUD, and watch betting patterns? How many tables do you play?

6BB/100 at 4 tables >> 4BB/100 at 1 table.

I play three tops, no HUD. Of course I watch betting patterns; I play poker.

How the f'k would you have a higher BB/100 playing more tables? That's impossible.

Yeah, the strategy forums for most the games I play suck ass. That's why when it comes to 2+2 I mess around in BBV and when it comes to poker I help myself.

Joe - what you really mean is "The Sox went in the tank last week and I'm pissed."

However, since you posted this, the question really is "What do I want now?

Some people want the security of low-limit, high table volume and moderate income with low variance [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img](ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ). Others want to learn the game, improve their play, and make more money in the future.

When I mentioned in a post that I don't bother with pokertracker and hud, I was called an idiot (and a few more choice names) - but I still enjoy the game because I need to pay attention and try new things. Otherwise I might as well be at my old job workin 9-5 (and makin six figures).

Just my 2-cents, but I've been playing poker a long time and spent most of the last four years playing online - and I's still learning. If I was using hud to make my decisions I'd quit.
