Default Clubbing baby seal pups VS He-Man real poker (Low Content)

Hello my poker mentors,

Cofession:

I'm a fraud and a coward as a poker player.

I make almost all of my money beating really terrible players.

Theses pups have stats as bad as 87/34/0.18 (VP$IP/PFR/AF) wandering around tables as high as 600NL.

I run from tough fights.

Anyone else out there making all their money from helpless pups?

I wonder if this is adversly affecting my poker learning?

Comments?

to quote a quote from an already overquoted movie, "it's immoral to let a sucker keep his money."

Seems like you have already learned the most important lesson. Personally, I think of it as "Bayoneting the Wounded", but if Clubbing Baby Seals works for you then so be it.

There is always time for poker learning. Right now, you should be catching all the fish you can get.

BTW, it's good to run from a hard table. Why stay?

A few weeks ago I read a thread on MHNL called "What do 5/10+ players do better than .5/1 and 1/2 players?" The most memorable entry was

More likely to have solid balance of skill, game selection, and emotional control.

And understand the number one rule. The live ones pay the bills. Its nice to imagine outplaying diablo or strassa or whatever, but why?

Bottom line is money. You dont seem to be complaining about it.
