Default Re: Winners and Losers?

The truth is that most people are average. They are of average intelligence, average physical ability, just average. There's no doubt that being in the top 1-5% at anything is an accomplishment whether is be the SAT's to get into college, poker, or a sport etc. It also could mean what college you go to whether it be MIT or a community college. Only the top 1% of their class are accepted to MIT. It doesn't mean you are less of a person if you don't go there, it just means you may not be in the top 1%. But, you could be a great baseball player and be in the top 1% of baseball players. You can either study hard or play harder to get in the 1%. Not everyone can be a great poker player, it is a gift just like being a genius or pro athlete. You must practice, train, study, and you must have a gift to be at the top in the poker world.

Most people choose to be average at most things, but most have their own interest or certain area of expertise.

I hope most people play poker to have fun and gamble. Not to make money...that means more profit for the poker professionals.
