"If they're defenseless and can't defend themselves, you're in the right place."
Poker is not a game for weaklings. You have to be tough at poker, or you'll be eaten alive.
Here are some quotes that reflect this point.
"If they're defenseless and can't defend themselves, you're in the right place."
Mike Caro, poker writer.
Many players draw a parallel between poker and life itself. Some consider poker to be the best illustration of the principle of the struggle for survival. Many have even read Sun Tzu's book The Art of War as a guide to poker strategy. Here's how poker compares to life.
"Like it or not, the whole essence of a person is revealed at the poker table, and if other players understand him better than he does, then he has no one to blame but himself. And if he is not able and not ready to look at himself from the outside, then he will be a loser both in cards and in life."
Anthony Holden, " The Big Game: A Year as a Professional Poker Player."

"Never go broke in an unraised pot" -T.J. Cloutier
I've seen this quote attributed to many players, but I'm pretty sure I originally read it in one of TJ's books.
This quote is always in mind when I'm in a pot with a bunch of other limpers. When a pot goes unraised, there are so many options for my opponents hands and if I'm not holding the nuts, I always proceed with caution when someone's raising and re-raising.
This quote has saved me a lot of money over the years.

Perhaps not entirely accurate, but: "If you play a pair of sixes, why can't I play a pair of sevens?" Cincinnati Kid.

The days we seek however, are the days where we feel invincible. When we own the table and others almost ask us permission to get in the hand.

Poker is a game for patient people who know how to wait, there are many impulsive people who may destroy a good hand but sooner or later they end up drawing those people, for that I insist the game is 50% luck and 50% knowledge
