Default Re: Winning $100,000 and Writing About How to To It

What does this say about the ease of making six figures playing mid-limit poker?

That it is a grind, and becomes more of a grind as the years pass. I was alluding to this in another response to one of your posts related to this subject. I'm sure you caught it.

My sense is that David must feel it's easier to write about it than do it.

I think this is an astute statement. This also may help to explain why there are so many poker books being written and that some (or most?) have bad, or questionable advice or are poorly written. Writing articles and books may be an easier way to make a buck, or at least supplement your poker income. In addition, writing well is extremely difficult - which is another reason why there is so much bland, uninspiring trash being cranked out as “poker literature”.

In my opinion.
