Now I'm constructive too!

I think your heart is in the right place. The delivery is off a bit.

My reason is quite simple:

I make good money playing 5/10. I'm more than happy with my win rate. I find that 10/20 is harder, I actually make less per hour, and right now I'm not at a point where I can push myself to learn and improve at the rate necessary to move up.

I play 5/10 with very little effort involved (while reading a book or watching a movie) and still make money at a rate that I'm happy with.

So why move up?

do you mean people whose responses to questions are more or less brush offs? Or do you mean that a reply like e"easy 3-bet" should come with an explanation why?

You are an idiot. Keep posting, you are the reason SS is not what it could be.

Lol, I think I have only 10 posts here. I lack the experience to post qualitatively about hands. On creating a culture for learning though, I consider myself an expert.

Yes - create a culture of learning by coming on here and insulting the small stakes posters. Nice work. I bet you can learn a thing or two here mr. expert. It is well documents that post count has nothing to do with poker skill.

We still need two more. Maybe we should get OP.

I'd say around 900 of those 1000 posts have been in sports betting and other non-poker boards. I mean, thats if post count means anything. Ive never seen you post here.
