Not accurate xDDD Tell that to Phil Ivey, Timex, Antonius... I could be here all day long
Also, that's why you have stake limits and I would bet 1M your grandfather, with all due respect, can't beat a pro player 25% of the time... Maybe 1% and maybe I'm exaggerating
Players grind from micro to high stakes because the player skill increases exponentially as you move up stakes. It's the player's responsibility to know where he should play. It's like you play soccer, and want to play against Real Madrid in CL expecting a win. Doesn't work that way... You have to develop skills to be amongst the best and that's through stakes.

That's why you have stakes from micro to high so you don't compete with the top players. Knowing the playing field is an essential skill to be successful in any sport, job, or activity... If you think it's a game of chance and not skill, then I believe you're approaching it incorrectly. Tell that to Nash and to PioSolver xD
