MaxStPolish 4 Posted May 18, 2009 Author Share Posted May 18, 2009 GOOD GRIEFThat's my line!But yeah, I don't say it in any defense of DScoot per se, or in any sort of negative statement to anyone else.... just more of an observation. Link to post Share on other sites

dscoot 0 Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 . Poker is extremely tougher than it was 5 years ago.if you truly-truly feel this way, I hope poker isnt your primary source of income or you have a backup plan if it is. just some advice , im sure you wont take it, but great pros are supposed to get better at poker as the years go on and the game should somewhat get easier for them.(better at actualy playing, better at reading/understanding/counteracting opponents, bettter and game selection, better at bankroll management,) Link to post Share on other sites

Do you know how many trainings sties, books, bootcamps, and forum knowledge that has contributed to games getting much much tougher?I'm a lot better than I was 5 years ago, but everyone was a retard back then. It's all about the comparative skill level. If my poker game ranks as a B, I can crush people who play at a D level on average ala 5 years ago. In bigger online tournaments now, the skill level has raised from a D to a B so playing as a B is breaking even and playing as an A is profitable but not as much as 5 years ago.You really have no clue dscoot. I've been playing professionally for 3 years and have seen much more than you have. Your logic and strategies are some of the worst posts I have ever had to read and the only way I can convince myself that someone isnt that bad is to convince myself you are a joke account.

Your logic and strategies are some of the worst posts I have ever had to read and the only way I can convince myself that someone isnt that bad is to convince myself you are a joke account.I personally rather play vs a bunch of these (training-site) players bc they all play predictable and mathematically similar. all u need is a little time to figure out their individual mathranges and style. alot of my strategies would be agreed upon by helmuth, matesow, even negraunu to some extent. Thats the main leak in all of the young "pro's" game -> they think they are better than these guys and disagree with alot of their philosophies. i mean i dont know if you fit this category, looshle, but alot of successfull players on this forum that give me shit, think johnny chan plays like a chump! I mean, that alone right there wins the argument for me.I dont understand why people constantly play 100r and other big tournies online. Why not just use that 'roll to play 35 wsop events, if you are good enuff you can work for 50days during the wsop then basically take the rest of the year off. Link to post Share on other sites

Vtlaxer09 4 Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 i personally like to play rebuys on one barrel. In the grand scheme of things, if you are going to end up with 300,000 chips 5hours later and playing heads up at the final table, i dont really think the extra 1500 to start with or the extra 2000addon is gonna change your course that much. plus if you play on one shell, anytime you just barely cash you get around 5x your buyin, which lets you freeroll in 5 more of those tournys.also some games are more volatile than others. 2k chips more in plo8 is practically nothing, as the pots are so huge (blinds too), and luck is a bigger factor in big pf allins, sometimes that extra 2k doesnt even let you see one more hand if your up against a big stack.if you want a formula on when to add 2k , i would say if you only have 5k or less. but then again, how much is 2k more really gonna change things in the grand scheme? i'd just save the buyin for another tourny and play with 5k.now FL is another story , but in NL or PL, oftentimes when you do get in that one big pot, the addon doesnt give you an extra life if you happen to lose it. if you truly-truly feel this way, I hope poker isnt your primary source of income or you have a backup plan if it is. just some advice , im sure you wont take it, but great pros are supposed to get better at poker as the years go on and the game should somewhat get easier for them.(better at actualy playing, better at reading/understanding/counteracting opponents, bettter and game selection, better at bankroll management,) I personally rather play vs a bunch of these (training-site) players bc they all play predictable and mathematically similar. all u need is a little time to figure out their individual mathranges and style. alot of my strategies would be agreed upon by helmuth, matesow, even negraunu to some extent.

Make a real deposit online if you're really that good at poker and I'd be willing to bet up to 10,000$ that I have more profit/better roi% than you do between june and december.
