this post should've been written in crayon. I'm assuming your rough draft was.

However, you should use an apostrophe to denote plural single letters. So it should be:

There are 2 m's in grammatical.

Nice try though.

Hey this is fun!

Wow,
This guy replied to his own first post 10 times. Amazing...

Anyway, I say we cut him a little break, even though this was a completely dumb post, I think the OP simply lurked here for a while and is interested in learning the game. Thus, this post is merely an attempt to sound smart to the established players/posters here by appealing to those who discuss focusing on playing correctly rather than results, something that everyone (with a brain) here emphasizes.

Of course he took a wrong turn saying that improving is the "reason" to play rather than making extra money/earning a living etc. but his intention was merely to "get in with the guys" (and girls to any female posters that have taken my money out there). So I say welcome to the forums Grease, but you've got to admit your statement is completely wrong/idiotic, because like every other sane person here I find no intrinsic rewards in being able to tell people "I'm a better poker player than you." If that gets you off, seek help. If not then admit that the reason to play is to make money (or have fun or whatever) and that improving is simply a means to that end.

Good luck, (We were all noobs once guys)

I think the hostility is rooted in the fact that he has revealed exactly what the pros don't want us to know.

If I didn't know better, and this was the first thread I ever read I would've thought 2+2 was full of a bunch of assholes. Oh wait, it is!
