Message: [QUOTE="LizzyJ, post: 1754044, member: 49285"] I know three people who have been playing -or- played professionally for 25+ years. ('Professionally' defined as their primary source of income). All three of them told me that math is a tool in their decision making, but not too put too much emphasis on it. Poker is a game of people not numbers. Being an engineer I wanted to prove to them that you can be a successful player by playing Poker by the numbers. Well, after one year, I proved them right and I was wrong. You might squeak by and become marginally successful, but if getting rich is your goal, playing strictly by the percentages won't get you there. [/QUOTE]
