World Class Player Reveals Secrets

I agree one should be able to adjust, Max; I just think the live games are WAY softer.

Your right. Which is why the original poster can't be a WCP.

The "bad players" who didn't play the way you thought they should play, but took your money were really good players.


nice

I think there may be more truth in this poster's post
than most of the respondents (thus far) are willing to admit.

I played a few days of live $20-$40 a few months ago. It was literally
like day and night compared to the online games.

Hell, I may go back to playing full-time live soon; I've been
considering it anyway.

But any World Class Player should be able to adjust to either game. I
also started out playing in casinos before playing online. I was able
to adjust and I am not even close to world class.

This poster is just a troll anyway.

Thanks too all of my new friends who responded. I appreciate that. I guess I should clarify a few things.

First of all, many of you missed the point. How could a world class player not adjust? Being able to adjust is what world class play is all about. Many of the people I play with on a daily basis are no slouches. They're a lot tougher I'd guess than your typical online pro. We get some live ones now and then to be sure, but for the most part the games can be tough to beat sometimes. A WCP should be able to beat any kind of game--hence the definition.

However, I can't seem to make any money playing online. And I don't mean pin money either. I'm sure a lot of you are grinding out between 15 and 30 thousand a year, which is fine, if you're living at home and mommy and daddy are footing all the bills. But if you live in LA, have a mortgage, a family, pay income tax, state income tax, etc. 30K isn't going to see you through the trimester--let alone a full year.

As I said in my first post, the players online are atrocious, yet I don't seem to be killing the games as I should be. Neither do a lot of people I know who are also WCPs. Why is that do you suppose? I have no idea. I can guess, but it's a mystery to me. If the players are very bad, and I am very good shouldn't I be making a lot of money? The answer of course is yes, but I'm not. What does this tell you? That I don't know how to adjust, LOL. Give me a [censored] break! That's what WCPs are best at, adjusting.

No, something else is going on. I have no idea what, but something. Put another way, if I can't beat it for good money then I doubt many can. They might say they are, but I have serious doubts.

But ya'll do beat it and beat it good, so I'm talking to the wrong people I guess. The people I really want to talk to aren't those of you making 25K a year but those of you making 150K a year--and not just for one year (and excluding tournaments) but for at least three years. I'll bet there aren't many (if any) doing that well. But if you're out there feel free to chime in.

In the meantime to the poster who said I couldn't be world class if I didn't use my real name, LOL, that's hilarious. An anonymous poster tells another anyonomous poster he can't be a real, because...well you get the point. Besides, I'd be a fool to use my real name. What possible good could it do me?

Okay all you online WCPs feel free to speak right up and let me know how you're doing. I'd love to hear from you, I really would. That's all for now.

Ciao

You STILL have not revealed any secrets yet.

Well, the person who asked that wasn't trying to claim to be a world class poker player, so they don't have anything to prove to anyone. On the other hand, you are making wild claims from the shadow of anonymous posting. If you want people to believe you, you can't be surprised they are going to ask for your name, especially since several world class players post at 2+2.

Fletcher,
First, welcome to the boards. Don't take what these other guys are saying too seriously, most of us have realized by now that there is something fishy about online poker. There is even a site that compiles information from pokertracker databases and has found several large anomalies.

Good luck in your B & M Play.

Hi, and thanks for responding. I'll try and answer your questions. First of all I see you don't use your real name. Why not? If you have any kind of opinion at all then it can't be valid unless you use your real name, right?--but we both know this is hogwash. Besides, even if I did use my real name it would mean nothing to you. I'm not famous; I don't play in tournaments, and I haven't been on TV. But I'll guarantee you this: I make a lot more money than some of these so-called tournament superstars. You wouldn't belive how many times I've been hit up for money by some of these cats. It would floor you!

And my claims aren't "wild." Not by any stretch of the imagination. Do you really believe all of the people who post here saying they are making a bazillion dollars playing online? It can't possibly be true. They might be making pin money, but they aren't making anything substantial.

And to your third point about several world class players posting here you're wrong again. There are a LOT of WCPs posting here, and 99% of them are anonymous. They don't stick around long, because there isn't much here for them. But they do poke their nose in from time to time, and when they have something to say, they say it, and then they're gone.

One more time: playing four 15-30 games or now four 30-60 or 50-100 games I should be able to make between 100K and 300K a year, but it just ain't happenin. Yet I can make the very same money per year playing one game at a time in a casino.

PS I found this to be very interesting. Whenever I was playing four games and losing, I would be losing IN ALL FOUR GAMES 80% to 90% OF THE TIME! Sure, I could easily be losing in one game or two games or even three games, but I have to tell you it was unbelieveable how many times I would lose in all four games at the same time. It was just amazing.

Kings in this game--beat. OK, now aces in this game--beat. Okay, now queens in this game--beat. And on and on and on.

Playing multiple games is supposed to LOWER your variance, not make it greater. But what do I know, I'm just an anonymous troll, LOL.
