Re: Gigabet Card Player Article Link
I personally found it very odd that he chose to leave the title the same, as there is no frame of reference for what 'almost there' means to the average card player reader-and also found it odd that he just quoted irieguy as 'craig hartman' without ever mentioning how he was relevant to the topic.
But whatever the case, great read and i love the fact that there is so much information there (as with most anything giga writes) that if taken at face value by a beginning/mediocre player...will probably end up costing people far more money that it makes them. |

Man, I thought I'd finally escaped this sort of philosophizing when I graduated from high school.

I must have read this 50 times by now, and I must say that EVERY time I read it I feel refeshed, and learn something new!
Thanks Degen! |

Then you've apparently never run bad. Come back when you have.

[/ QUOTE ] Have ran bad (down 60 buyins), but i'm mentally tough enough to handle it, as i realise even if i'm playing good poker, i'll get outdrawn, or my kings will run into aces etc etc. If it wasn't for bad play i wouldn't make nearly as much money. |
