Message: [QUOTE="Nathan Williams, post: 6038226, member: 83632"] Talent is largely meaningless in poker. I have seen so many "talented" poker players come and go over the years. The real staying power of a pro is in their ability to keep going even when the cards go really bad on them for a long, long time. Even when they have been getting kicked in the teeth at the poker tables for weeks or months on end. Even when it feels like they will never win another hand of poker again. This is when we find out who the real pros are. Because persevering through all this has absolutely nothing to do with "talent" Instead, this is about heart, determination and the will to succeed, no matter what. Mental toughness will always beat talent in poker. It is the true measure of success in this game (and in life also), when everything is said and done. Do you agree or disagree with this?
