I used to play a ton of basketball.  The last several years I've had some injuries that have held me back.  I've played poker for 6 years, but since basketball has been put on hold I've turned to poker for the competitive fix.  
 
I love outplaying people not by "getting lucky" playing 80% of the hands dealt to me, but playing a solid TAG game.  I've had some good results and feel that I might even be a better poker player than a basketball player.  
 
Playing poker does however have draw backs vs. basketball.  If someone hit a lucky ass shot vs. me I could just play better defense or maybe throw I little elbow as I set a pick or something aggressive.  In poker if I get a bad beat I can only continue to play a strong TAG game.  If I switch things up and bet more I'm just asking for trouble.  So when I get a bad beat to take me out of a MTT I can only do a couple of things punch a way, drink some beer and punch a wall, or just be a grumpy little bitch all day and take it out on everyone I know.  Poker love hate relationship indeed!!!
