I do have raw, negative feelings in general about poker/ gaming industry but that does not make me a bitter person, nor does it mean i don't make money playing poker. All it means is I have a realistic, skeptic view which is good imo.
its funny that people focus on / only comment about my tone and don't want to get into a debate or refute facts or some realistic viewpoints i've made in this thread. much easier to blast away at low hanging fruit to discredit someone
i guess on this forum if a person isn't stroking someones genius/ ego it must mean they are a bitter conceited hater. tbh if you can't look past my tone and try to look objectively and realistically at the facts- taking in information from all sides then you guys need to grow some skin.
squid- i never said you weren't good at poker or that your winrate was attributed to only running hot. if you think that way then please reread what i said itt. however i did imply that you have a huge ego if you think 10bb/hr is normal and sustainable without requiring any kind of run good (and theres lots of different forms of run good u kno that).
again, having a good dose of skepticism is important especially for those looking at this forum and wanting to get their feet wet in poker.
nobody has to or even should take everything i say as truth. nor should they blindly believe what squid or anyother person itt says is a normal wr. take in all the information available (i suggest skimming other sub forums ie mid hi fr) i'm just even more skeptical than usual taking someones word who is looking for some kind of recognition/ ego boost, and doesn't address things head on and instead words his way around or just completely ignores it... especially in this industry
now i guess the joke is on me from even attempting to reason with people on a gambling forum that MAYBE being objective and realistic is the best approach. however i htink its worth it to try even if only one person lurking this thread stops dreaming and starts thinking.
edit: there certainly are people who average 10bb/hr over a large samples. It's an outlier that requires unparalleled work ethic and of course some run good. some people do actually make a living/ raise a family on poker- again an outlier.
take a step back and look at an even bigger picture. someone making 10bb/hr or $50/hr at 2/5 is only making roughly the equivalent of ~50k compared to a real job. somebody busting their ass for 50k and being middle aged sucks considering all the other great opportunities there are. just all my opinion tho
and ya i come off as an ass, but im not asking anyone to be my buddy. im asking people itt to think objectively/ for themselves. gl everyone

I now have +5BI. I took my make or break shot this weekend and came out ahead. Ill be adding a few buy ins next week off the table as well. I an now simply under rolled instead of roll less. God it feels good to be back on the felt.
Should I buy in for 100bb or the table max 150bb?
