Message: [QUOTE="Karozi615, post: 2228875, member: 90989"] A grinder is an extremely solid player with a lot of experience who plays fundamentally sound poker and finds small edges that enables them to exploit their opponents. They are focused on consistency and profitability. I feel like the term grinder should be reserved for only consistent winners, and being a true grinder means you've proven you can make it in the world of poker. A lot of people will call themselves grinders, but the grinders who actually meet the criteria I just pointed out are definitely the ones that you can learn the most from. There is a distinction between grinder and gambler Gamblers have no BRM, tilt easily, take shots at higher stakes, jam it for 300% of the pot 90bb deep with the 2nd nut flush draw just because deep down inside they want to get called and hit the draw. I think to an outsider a "grinder" would be anyone who plays cards, but to me that just isn't the case. [/QUOTE]
