Default GROW UP!!

I swear this site is like a bunch of frat boys lying about the size of their "package" to the sorority girls. Everyone seems to be making thousands of dollars either a month or a year playing poker. Makes me wonder whos actually losing money to you guys since everyone claims to be winning so much. Most of the replys on this site are just arrogant and very immature. I guess when your dealing with people that post these scheduels of playing 4 tables for 8 hours a day, bad people skills should be expected since they seem to never leave the house and god for bid meet a woman. I'm just a college kid about to graduate this summer and I play poker on the internet for fun and I guess i'm up about $200 or $300 from playing SNG tables and low limit ring tables over the past year. I first came to this site to hear new ideas and try and learn but so far I have been just turned off by the childish attitudes of the religious posters on this site. How about more poker knowledge and less self promotion about how your the best poker player that nobody has ever heard of. You have to be 21 to gamble, so how about you act like your 21 when your making a post or a reply.

Okay.



And just so you know, the people on this forum represent a small, small number of the people who play online poker. So it's VERY possible that everyone here is a winner...Have you even seen some of the play online??

I'd guess - maybe the 95% of the players who don't read these forums?

I can understand why 95% of the people playing poker wouldn't visit this site, its full of childish jerks. I'd much rather buy Skalansky's books then sift through the garbage on this site that is posted on a regular basis that has nothing to do with poker and more to do with telling everyone how good you think you are.

Your right -

kindly please move to Rec. Gambling Poker - much more intelligent and mature conversations over there.

Ligthen up, it's the internet, yes there is some childish stuff going on here, but 1. it's not everyone and 2. It happens in the real world too.

I am not a huge winner - but I did put away about $5K last year, half of which was from 2 big MTT wins. $5k over 12 months ~$400 a month.

a nice "hobby income" but nothing for me to quit my day job over.

That's right- I have a day job, and friends, and kids, and <GASP> a life.

But thanks for stopping by.

Just to clarify, some of the post are very knowledgeable and a very good read and alot of people on the site are pleasant in their replies and post. I just wish people would be alittle more grown up when replying, if you don't agree with someone's post on poker explain why and give your reason, don't belittle them and say how stupid they are like is done in so many replies.
