How much of the time do you enjoy playing? - Page 2

Im around 67%. You 10%ers should go play tournaments on the side or something for fun. If you hate it and are playing I'd guess you're gonna burn out at some point.

Yea, some really low responses. I like playing about 75% and I look forward to playing about 90% of the time. I also play above my roll so its more exciting. Plus I only play 4 or 5 tables so I have time to talk shi.t and stuff to other players and say things that you upstanding individuals on this forum wouldn't like.

Most of the time its strictly bizness. But if I play a wild dude like CardShark it can be fun, especially if he's tilting...

i did this after losing two buyins at a table, started trashtalking about how much better i was etc. it was kinda douchy but it worked wonders for my image and the amount of action people were willing to give me. i only played with you once but you were being a douche (didn't really mind) then and you quadroupled up in no time. is it conscious and do you always do this? i am thinking about talking more smack in the chatbox, i'm feeling it might be MAJOR +ev.

When running very good I enjoy playing >90% of the time.

When running bad something like <25%

Also, it had become somewhat more boring generally over time..

Ok, sometimes poker can be very fun.

Whoa... those calls, very nice. Really makes you think about how different proper short handed play is from full ring.

Lucky · #20 04-20-2006, 06:22 PM

if you dont enjoy it, play fewer tables. It makes playing poker more like...playing poker.
