Default Re: Tell me something about me that sucks.

Beer,

I think you don't play as well when you are losing. But dont feel bad, I am guilty of the same thing. I think that is the biggest thing that seperates the big winners (like Ironchef) from the small winners.

Keep in mind too that there is much more luck in the long run than most people would like to believe. I once ran a simulation using "Wilson's Software" that was quite interesting. I put 8 of the same players (Tight aggressive) and ran a simulation of 500,000 hands. Keep in mind these players play the exact same way as each other so neither has an edge in the long run. The stakes I ran the simulation at was 5-10 stud.

At the end of the simulation there was a $40,000 spread between the biggest winner and the biggest loser. This means if u play 4 tables 8 hours a day for a year online, you're results can be up to $40,000 off playing 5-10 stud.
