Message: [QUOTE="alienat3d, post: 3664761, member: 226185"] 1) In general you are probably right about that. Most of women are about to avoid risks at life and at the game too and often playing pretty tight too. This character tendency is referring to the stone ages, where men where hunters and had to be aggressive to gain some meat for the family, at the same time women were collectors, searching for fruits and berries and keeping children safe. Of course we are far away from that time, but the basics of character our prehistoric ancestors can be still found deep inside. But now we come to second point of your quote, with which i rather disagree. 2) It could be also in general about right if poker was just a game of luck and not a complicated game of intelligence, math and psychology as it actually is. Considering that, your words about men achieving maximum success, because they are more irrational and risky, than women, sounds to me as a totally joke. Seriously, poker skills have nothing to do with gender at all and poker skills are of course very rational. To play poker well and successful over long time you have to be rational, you need to have learned math of poker, you need to have strategy you have to learn psychology of other poker player types. Probably you are new to poker yourself, if you saying that men are more successful, just because they are more aggressive and do more bluffs and raises. No it's not about it. There are so many terribly loosing players in poker, who although very aggressive, but playing simply bad. They have no poker skills, they don't know when you need to be aggressive and when not. And it's like a birthday party for regulars if we have such player at table, believe me. I also know some women, who are deeply understanding the concepts of the game and importance of aggression in a right time. Even if in other aspects of their lifes they are more tend as a women "playing safe", they have learned to be aggressive in poker and are very successful in it. Much more than the most "aggressive donks" men. [/QUOTE]
