Default Re: World Class Player Reveals Secrets

[ QUOTE ]
While I myself am not a world class player, I am winning consistently online at cash NL, sit n gos, and have done well in multitable tourneys.

I would like to say that there is some merit to what the poster is trying to say...in the long run, the ones that make the most are the sites. I mean those good players who can make money online will do well obviously but they are also giving a TON of rake to the sites, probably in multiples of their profit. While this may also apply to brick and mortar casino rooms, it would be more exaggerated online due to the higher rake for lower limits and the fact that people (including myself) multitable which reduces the quality of your concentration and overall game somewhat and you are paying multiple rakes. The point is that one can still win but the real winners are the sites, bar none.

wow, this is almost as dumb as the OP. I don't know where you are playing, but every B&M casino I have ever been to has a higher rake than comparable limits online.
You say the sites are making more money than the players? Really? No kidding? Newsflash! We don't care. The sites provide winning playeres with a valuable commodity and have earned their rake. And you think multi-tabling is bad for winning players? Oh man, I don't even know where to start with that one.
Saying that the sites make more money than the best players is like saying that Steinbrenner makes more money than A-Rod. Its true but it doesn't make the money the players get any less valuable.
