Default Re: Frequenting 2+2 messes with my head

Naw... not 'messed up'. What I meant is that hanging out with a bunch of winners made me forget exactly how rare it is to be a winner in the first place.

Similarly, hanging out with a bunch of people who play insane numbers of hands per day/week/month makes it easy to forget that the majority are pretty either a) don't think in terms of those things or b) don't play much at all whatever their intentions.

This wasn't meant as a brag post or anything, I just was thinking about what being here does to our (or at least my) expectations

Sorta like living in Southern California screws with one's ideas of physical beauty. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Someone told me when I was younger that "Winning is a habit. So is losing. The one you want is up to you."

So true...
