Message: [QUOTE="Gunner57, post: 1796424, member: 78827"] Rolandadio: It is great you are a winning player. That is everyone's first step to confirming that they could be good at poker. What is amazing is you seem (or claim) to have done this naturally without much book reading and only learning at the tables. Congrats! We all play poker for different reasons. For me, I play poker because I want to get better. I love playing games, at first sucking and then getting better and better till I am the best. That is why I play poker, cause I want to get better. From what I have seen on this thread Rolandadio there is a good chance that if you were to focus on your emotions and the reasons why you need to check people stats and/or needle them when they suck out you could see your win rate go up. I would say that the amount of profit you could gain by addressing the reason for needling others would be greater than what you could hope to ever accomplish through trash talking. It may be right now that you let your emotions get a hold of you when you get sucked out until you check their stats or make fun of them and this is your way of anti-tiliting. If so, that is great that it works for you (that you have a way to reduce tilt). But, there may be a better way out there to reduce your need for this anti-tilting tool in the first place. Also, Tilt is not measured in win vs lost. I have been on tilt plenty of times and won. Tilt as defined by Tommy Angelo is "any time you are not playing your A-Game" Your B-Game could be profitable! but if you are able to play your A Game more you win more $ Just something to think about if you want. By all means if you dont want to think THAT much about poker please dont, but for me I want to get better so I am all ears if people think I am wrong. As for trash talking I dont do it. I would give away too much info, my emotions would get the better of me, and I dont like being an A hole. I try to be quiet and friendly. I do find that once I am comfortable I give too much info away though :( Stu: As always you have great insight. This thread due to both sides poking and prodding each other has yielded some interesting information on a topic that normally would not have yielded nothing really useful. [/QUOTE]
