Some people with mental handicaps have uncanny abilities. I don't doubt one of those could be playing online poker.

Maybe there is a guy out there like the one in "Rainman". Instantly calculate ICM every hand.

I think its because of the handys that 10%+ roi is so easily achieveable

freemoney, trust me its not that easy. Even though it seems easy to you and maybe some others, its much much harder than you think and also much harder to teach a random person to do. I have thought the same thing as you in the past, but it's just not true.

It's okay, you are only belittling yourself. Instead of looking at it as though you have a natural gift or talent for poker, you instead look at it as though everyone who can't do what you do is a stupid idiot and that it's very easy. Think of yourself as a genius, it's a better and happier outlook.
