Default Re: When are you a loser?

[ QUOTE ]

I have heard in numerous posts that by playing just around 100 SnG's of a certain limit you should be able to tell if you are a winning player or not...


[/ QUOTE ]

A winning player should be able to tell looking through 100 HHs whether or not someone is most likely a winning player. But doesn't it seem likely that a losing player, breakeven player, or even marginally winning player will have a hard time knowing whether or not they are 'winning'?

[ QUOTE ]

does the same apply for if you are a losing player?


[/ QUOTE ]

Well, if you're a losing player, you can be making better plays than the complete 'monkeys' and think you're actually a winner.....but you're not. At the same time, it's also possible for losing players to realize that they have huge leaks (even if they don't know specifically what they are) and that they are very likely losing money at their current skill level.

Do you think you're a 'losing' player? If so, why? If not, why not?

When is it time to give up and quit


[/ QUOTE ]

Do you feel like quitting?

[ QUOTE ]

move down or re-evaluate your play?

[/ QUOTE ]

Do you feel like moving down?

Are you interested in getting 'better' and/or making more +$EV decisions during SNGs?

All of this talk about 'losing' and 'winning' is highly dependent on the person and their own capabilities concerning self-evaluation and current actual skill level.

I'm still not exactly sure what you're original question is getting at.
