how will anyone who doesn't know what 2+2 is look at his screenname and say "hey, I should go to www.twoplustwo.com for discussion on poker!" if you don't know what it is you won't pay any attention to this. even if they did, who the [censored] cares?

I'm not sure it takes that much effort to become a solid, winning grinder if your intelligence is in the high percentiles. You probably have to read a few books.

Hi Michael,

I agree, although by definiton, most people don't have intelligence in the high percentiles. (It's worth noting that this is probably a situation similar to how everyone seems to both be a good driver *and* have a good sense of humor... [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img])

I really do question, though, how many people really study the books they're reading. Certainly the people who come here probably do. However, I remember reading in a post that SSHE was near the top of the Amazon best seller list at some point -- I really don't think everyone who picks that up is going to go from a Red Snapper to Ed Miller overnight. Not even close, IMO.

Then again, this is all speculative. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Regards,
-Brian

I had a guy named tylerdurden1 at my $2/4 table tonight.

(See 15/30 posts. Also same guy that finished 126th at the 2004 WSOP)

Weird.
