mscaces thread of going all in preflop

[Trappped]

Let me get this straight ?
You start a thread trying to get a consenous opinion of whether its ok to go all in pre flop in a tournament, especially early, and of course the extreme example of whether its EVER correct to fold aces preflop (or Kings every blue moon). THEN....when someone disagrees, makes a smart remark, OR you just plain don't "LIKE" the O-P-I-N-I-O-N, you go off on this narcasistic tirade of how accomplished you are and repeatedly ask "what have you won , who is your coach , etc etc."
Well, *IF* you are such a great player and SOOOOOOO accomplished, just by making the money in any normal tourney, you are routinely beating 90% of the field. When/and/or if you make it very deep, you are routinely beating as high as 99% or better of the field.
For instance, when I chopped 3 ways back on March 5th in the Stars Million, I outlasted over 5800 entrants. So on that particular day, I was better than 99.995% of the field.
My point, you are analagous (in theory) of a Bill Gates or a Warren Buffett, walking up to a ditch digger, and asking their opinion on how to get rich. WHAT'S THE POINT ???
The great thing about poker is there are many different styles that are very sucessful. Some like Marc Shief like to accumlate chips early (and of course risk a lot) or go home. Some, like Harrington or Hachem, will milk a Short Stack to the bitter end and will routinely lay down AK or QQ preflop to 2 or more raisers.
Your thread seems to accomplish absolutely nothing but give you repeated oppurtunities to state how great you already are !!

Chess analogy:

there are many chess styes. Tal was world champion and he was literally wild, Petrosian was also world champion and he wasnt all that exciting.
However most chess players agree that if youre first move is a3 u suck.

Given this thread, I can guarantee you weren't.

I layed one bad beat the whole entire tournament when my KQ suited in the BB sucked out against AK in the cutoff when I went all in (I had CO covered 2-1 in chips) on what I thought was a resteal.
I'm so glad you can make a guarantee when most likely you probably don't even remember seeing me play 1 hand that day.
What does that say about you ??

I dunno, I gave out 3 bad beats when I won it so you are 3x better than me?

or, possibly, you suck. or, possibly, we both suck. or, possibly, sample size. whichever.
