dear Aaron:

i viewed your website. you mispelled "consistantly".

apparently, you do not understand that "rationalization" is a term that describes the method whereby we think, but NOT what it is we think. the christian forefathers could and did, rationalize the number of angels standing upon the head of a pin.

i am not interested in rationalizing an incorrection. i am interested in learning to play poker well. i will learn to play poker well from those who play poker well.

you [censored] [censored], you.

heh... i think this is actually a really important idea, ive seen some absolutely ridiculous advice given on these boards after long 'reasoning' posts; (yeah a lot were posted by me [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img])

i wish we could have some way to be ranked somehow... even by putting a code in your "Loc:" so people can distinguish whose advice to believe and whose to take with a grain of salt.

what about people use a kind of self evaluation to rate on a scale of 1 to 10 and open the location part with that.

for example mine could be: "3/Viridian City!"
and 3 could mean.... relatively inexperienced, but at least a consistent and substantial winner at the low limits where i play.


i always remember this one time i was at a b+m table with one of the biggest fish (he even looked like a muppet) id ever sat down with, and the fish started advising the other player. totally serious and well intentioned he suggested things like...

"You should always just call to see the flop, because you can never tell exactly how your hand will change. Even aces arent good on a flop of 456."
*Nods wisely*
*Newer (but probably better) fish nods back and takes it in*

its just the blind leading the blind....

sorry for going against the grain and agreeing with op haha, i understand if my own ranking drops to 1 [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Chipotle is Macdonalds Dan. Come out west and get real burritos.

[MrWookie47]

Sure, Chipotle is McDonalds. Sure, there are better burritos. However, Chipotle still gives consistently good quality. I'm always happy and satisfied when I eat there.

That reminds me. I went to a mexican fast food place the other day and I was reading a sign on the window:

"WE ONLY ACCEPT CASH, CREDIT OR DEBIT
ALL DEBIT CHARGES WILL INCLUDE A $0.50 CONVENIENCE FEE
SORRY FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE"

I savored in the delicious carne asada and the irony.
