I think we hgave an entire couple of pages of folks who really are not being honest.
Many of you seem to be mixing up the idea of HOPING TO WIN with the iea of PLAYING TO WIN. They are not at all the same thing.

PLAYING TO WIN first of all, means going for the top spot. It does NOT mean cashing. Most of the folks here don't even make it to the cash, let alone the top spot.

PLAYING TO WIN means always knowing who the weakling(s) on your table is(are) and exploiting them relentlessly.

PLAYING TO WIN means spending time away from the table as well as hours of practise.

PLAYING TO WIN means reviewing your hands after playing to identify leaks and ID where you could have won more. You should also be refining your player notes after each game (and throughout)....so that you have more fact-based intel on your opponents. With CC folks, this should be extensive.

PLAYING TO WIN means getting your moeny in good when you have the leading hand. It does NOT mean flat calling to the river and then folding your missed straight/flush...

PLAYING TO WIN means not getting upset when you see you *would have won the hand* if only you hadn't folded your garbage hole cards. (Do not be results oriented, you'll be making the wrong plays).

There are lots more qualities of players who truly play to win. PLease resond with ones that I've missed or overlooked...and let's stop pretending that HOPING TO WIN is the same as PLAYING TO WIN.... IT ISN'T!

Cheers,
