not necessary, assbag.

at the people saying poker is 50% luck.

Poker is at least 75% skill and at best 25% luck.

Unless you catch a run of cold cards for 90 minutes-plus, you're going to find a way to win hands if you know what you're doing. Even with rags, you can be dangerous if you know how to pick your spots.

it depends on the card games ur playing...

ive seen guys win every hand on baccarat and think they are the for the 1-2hr winning 200k, then losing it all the next hour or night....

ppl just dont know when to lose, you cant always win against the casino, you cant win all its money...give it a rest and live to fight another day.

fck poker at the casinos, if you want real drama, attend home games if you do get invited, you see ppl gamble everything from homes to wives etc...ive seen ppl hand over cars, house keys, wives for the night....then again gettin ur house raided is a funny scene...

Why is it that every poker player that's played more than 1 game thinks they are good?

[ginobili's bald spot]

This is so true. If poker is 75% skill, Jamie in Gold wouldn't have won the largest tournament of the year several years ago. Poker in my book is 60% luck and 40% skill, yeah, that 40% is enough where the great players can make good money off it, but no amount of skill can trump good luck.

Sample size. Anyone can get lucky in the short term, skill wins out over the long haul. Poker is a game of skill. By the way Jamie Gold lost most of that money back in Cash games to people who are actually good. He's a ing fish.

[lil'mo]

do you need help?

[Heath Ledger]

Yeah I néed help
counting all of the money ive made while profiting 14 out of my 15 last cash game sessions.

[MannyIsGod]

+1

I should have been up way more I played 5 cash sessions all week but long ones. I had several horrible beats due to runner runners and people putting a sick amount of money into the pot with very marginal hands and killing me on the river.

I played a very agressive game so i was swinging like a monkey and picking my spots well and getting big calls due to my loose image.

Manny you talk a good game have fun micro grinding online. It's obvious to me that I'm a solid player at my stakes and that's all I need to be because there are sony fish.

My guess Manny in live play you would be one of them.

Dude, all I know is that if I started a thread every time I had a week where I made 1300 (let alone a night) I'd 100 times the attention you are.

[lil'mo]

Yeah I néed help
counting all of the money ive made while profiting 14 out of my 15 last cash game sessions.

You're so stupid you can't count to 1300 by yourself? I don't know if Vegas is such as good idea for you. That city will eat you alive.

[TDMVPDPOY]

[4>0rings]

You go get them casinos Ledger!!!! You found their one weakness... POKER!

[Heath Ledger]

The hot streak continues another winning session today. Up $380 in 4 hours. Now 15 of 16 sessions with a profit.

[Heath Ledger]

Vinnie definitely hit me up when your in town.

[Heath Ledger]

Manny put your money where your mouth is err fingers are....

[Heath Ledger]

Last night small profit of $180 now 16-17 sessions had decent swing from $450 down at one point.

[Heath Ledger]

Now up to 18-19 sessions with a profit. Somebody stop me....

[The Reckoning]

i dont get the appeal of playing poker on a consistent basis. it gets boring, and the only reason i play is so i can have something to do when i'm getting trashed.

[thispego]

Heather ledge is a got. Get it?

[The Reckoning]

i know a guy who wants to be a professional poker player. everybody laughs at him. good luck to him though . most of the ones i see have business backgrounds, a solid job, or a family fortune. he just has delusion.

imo, if i were to be anything "professional" itd be something that requires mad skill and hours of practice. something where "bad luck" is just a result of PPP - piss poor performance.

[Heath Ledger]

I already own a (usiness that pays the bills and then some. I do not have a need or desire to do this for a living. Someone says poker is boring. It most certainly can be especially when you are grinding in cash games. Sometimes hours and hours(or rarely multiple sessions) with no kinds of cards but thats where it helps to be creative and unpredictible, so you are not just sitting there waiting for the nuts.

This is not just some pipe dream for me, ive proven over the last several years to be profitable over hundreds and hundreds of hours. Its a good side income. I plan on stepping up my game and playing in some bigger buy in tournaments more consistently as my bankroll allows as I've proven to be very solid in tournament play as well.

I prefer tourneys because they can be a bit more exciting but cash games are definitely the bread and butter. I also enjoy the interaction with people from all over the world. My fiance and I are getting back together, Im flying to Tn tonight to get her and drive back to Vegas by Sunday or Monday where we are renting an apartment.

I don't care if you want to make fun of me or whatever. Most of you who do play are casual players and wouldn't have a clue anyways. Feel free to sit at my table any time. Im a regular at the Flamingo for cash games. I'll buy you a few rounds

[The Reckoning]

sounds good. next time im at the Flamingo i'll ask for Heath Ledger.

[Sec24Row7]

Gah I hear ya about online... cash games are rough with most people set squating on 40 tables at once.
