Shortstackers (and whoever),

I don't know about you but I don't see poker as just a business. I started playing poker because it was fun, not because I saw dollar signs ahead of me. Even now, the money is nice, but definitely not my main motivation for playing. I play for the feeling I get from competition and the fulfillment I get from improving my game and trying to become one of the best.

Do you really want to turn poker into some regular 9-5 grind? With the direction it's going I'm very happy with my decision to keep going to college and get a degree.

yep...I play only for the money. If I wanted the life fulfillment stuff, I'd chose a much better field than poker. In essence, professional poker players are shortstacking life (Think about it).





WTF with all the strat in BBV?

I'll just say cowpig gets it

as another analogy, something I see alot are guys playing middle and end game chess, but have not put in the work on openings.








Why does Stinkypete get so much love when I've said the exact same thing the last few months? My heart is broken.









big surprise that baldsweaters wants 30BB buyins...hooray for raising the edge of one of the best players!

[censored] all this. I just play Omaha now.

[/ QUOTE ]Yeah because there's no shortstacking problem in PLO, amirite?

Ok, ok I'll explain my thoughts:

The shortstackers in PLO are not nearly as frustrating, the preflop edges diminish drastically compared to hold em, fewer good PLO players, and last but not least, its pot-limit.

[/ QUOTE ]Ermmm... you basically said something about winrates, that they exist. Stinkypete OTOH writes very intelligently and knows what he's talking about. See the difference?
