Default Re: Should You Quit Your Day Job? — Part II well.... im stupid

Hi, i dont have a mensa card, but from my experience, emotional control is at the top of the list for long term success. someone with much playing experience(and study) will play just find next to someone like you David because your edge imo is in those very close situations that need your advanced view of the game and ability to make decisions quickly.But still,I can make money. in limit, most of the time its not only your correct decisions but your opponents incorrect decisions that make you money. by putting pressure on opponents(for example) you increase your chances for success by forcing players into uncomfortable situations frequently.
But on the other hand, studies show that us humans are very good at pattern recognition and learning,in fact our brain solves these problems in classic bayesion(spelling),
type processes naturally, even without a 130 score.
if this all sounds dumb its cause i havent been tested lately. good luck
