I miss online poker.

I don't ever plan on making a living through poker, although I could. I'm happy to play you HU btw.

And you have kinda proved my point

I look at shots and conversion/concede rates for the purpose of identifying whos going to have a favorable matchup in a given game week for fantasy purposes.

xG analyses situations that have already occured.

Similar data, slightly different purposes. Easy to make the same conclusions when you see a team scoring on 100% of shots (hint: its not sustainable).

LOL
you have a game where a ****load of money can be made(extreme competition) and have a huge handicap to outperform(rake)
yet it's basically like a nerd videogame in difficulty.
hahaha
getting elite at bowling is as difficult as soccer too?

Let's do this.

Your $500 saints to finish top 4 to my $1k they don't.

Escrow half now?

Cheers.

problem with you cashy is that you don't even consider the possibility that you might be chatting bollocks.

From my own experiences trying to learn Starcraft and the like and from friends' experience i can quite safely say that relative to the competition poker is an easier game, just look how easily the many starcraft players transitioned to poker. difficulty of games has to be judged relative to the competition, and lots of people (including myself tbh) are really quite bad at poker yet still make money.

you're just wrong about the "extreme competition" btw, poker is still easier than it should be - Eastern Europeans have been surprisingly slow to cotton on to the fact that they can make 5x the average wage of their country grinding online poker.

congratz, you winning in games with the level of about nl5-nl10 online

Im constantly moving funds around for fantasy/poker so I dont particularly want to escrow.


We can pick a smaller sum though if you want?

ex****ingactly, it's easy as piss to make thousands and thousand of pounds/month.

I don't play SNG's brah.

It depends on what you call making a living, I'm sure you could make 20k or w/e playing those limits but that's never enough money to make up for all the things you give up by not being in another career. Plenty of mid stakes regs will be making 100k+ yearly and it's not easy or quick to get to that level.

in live poker dude, not at all analogous to online

btw theres no way you could beat 60$+ husngs, unless you are in the cartel

trolling?
basically every south korean was a massgrinding rakeback grinder who had to quit when games got more difficult.
you are delusional as ****, you would be a MASSIVE losingplayer at nl25 zoom, fact.

I think Bertie massively overestimates the amount of people who are good winners online. The rake online vs live is a big deal, as Cashy notes.

at lollivepoker, we are discussing onlinepoker bro

lol Cashy resorts to the ad hominem. I'd be willing to bet 5k that I can beat 25nl zoom

and online is still pretty easy

guys, I'm a 40yo dullard mass-tabling $1.65 games on a laptop and even I make money from poker

so your evidence that its easy is that you know you could beat it if you wanted to?

rake is worse live and you don't get rakeback, fwiw I'm primarily an online player

i do beat it, can even pm you some graphs if it matter that much to you?

husngs? just wondering, because afaik at 60$ you cant sit unless you are a member of a cartel

correct, that is mainly for hypers though - there is a sort of informal cartel at the 100s but they don't sit me all that often. action is quite slow so i have to play on every site.

@bandit we can play HU cash,

Bertie, while rake is a smaller percentage online, that is a very bad way to look at it. Rake online takes way more out of the games and is a much bigger detriment to a winning/breakeven player than it is live.
