Default Re: Are winning players really a bunch of wussy\'s or just smart?


I like the analogy. Tojo and Hitler were not wussies. They had no fear (i.e. were not that smart). As poker players, they would likey lose their whole bankroll by moving up to the 30/60 game too quickly. Eisenhower was no wussie. He had some healthy fear (i.e. he was smart). As a poker player, he would probably stay at the 3/6 game until he was ready to move up.
