Why dont you just be an engineer, you make much more consistant money I'd think. Is full time play that much more fun than full time work? [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

[img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Hehe.. I think that it is all the same for all of us. Every job gets boring after a while. My engineering job is pretty boring, and every other job looks more exciting than mine... hehe...

Being intelligent and good at mathematics doesnt make anyone a poker player.

People who are good at poker are usually exception at strategy games such as chess.

I think you are just trolling anyway so I wont bother too much.

When I first started playing poker about 1000 years ago in junior high, I thought I was smarter than all the other players (better grades and test scores). Because of this, I thought it would be easy to win. Wrong. Cards don't care about your grades or test scores. I didn't even start breaking even until I was a senior in high school. Of course there were no good books back then, no internet, no 2+2, so I had to learn from just playing once or twice a week in nickel-dime-quarter games.

Obviously there are game playing skills that sometimes are not directly related to your ability to do well on the math aptitude tests. Anyway the results speak for themselves. But there is no way to know what your problem is. Post some stats.

Clearly this post is a joke.

If you are smart as you say you are you will do yourself a favor and spell advice right.
