I think the thing that most of you don't understand is that fearlessness is by far the most important ingrediant between a good player and a great. Some people have it naturally, some people acquire it because of circumstance change, and some people learn it.

I think the thing that separates us from the big names is that they know that they can go on to the next tournament if they lose, so they have no problem pulling the trigger when they sense weakness in thier opponents, hence they accumulate chips at a much faster rate.

There has to be some initial poker talent and tons of studying and experience, but after you get to the "very good player" stage, you either already have the fearlessness, learn that trait, or acquire it because the money has become less important to you.

Just my thoughts.
