...though I know I shouldn't. When I finnish a 1000 hand session in the negative, review my big loosers, and they're all to miraculous runner-runner gutshots and 2 outers after calling 2-3 cold on the flop, I want to put these idiots on trial and have them publicly declared imbeciles, shamed before their peers, yada yada yada. The contempt I feel sometimes really suprises me, though I have always been highly competitive. I can't get my head around the paradox that it's because people can win in the short-term at poker while playing retarded that I can win in the long-term while playing smart. I would give up 25% of my profits to experience 50% less varience. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

I wonder if a casino thinks this way when someone goes on a roll on a crap table. Or on a roulette wheel.

Embrace the ones paying you off even though they hit their hands.

Also, study more. You may not be totally buying in to the longrun concept yet.
