I feel poker is 80% luck .. the other 20% is reading players and how you play but you cant win consistantly without getting cards. The big big big pots are won when you get really lucky. Point and case .. your biggest loses are bad beats when someone else gets really really lucky ... think about it.
Only 43k hands played in 15 months? That's not even 100 hands per day. My guess would be that you're probably filtering out hands so it spits out some nice EV/win stats.

Great story. Would also like to hear more from you on some poker strategy.
Funny you got beat up in $.50/1 tho
I wouldn't really call it beat up, 44 hands is nothing, and he is still way above EV, so I'm guessing in those 44 hands, something like AA<AK or the like.
Amazing story quite inspirational. Welcome to cardschat
Hey Yourdoom,
Exceptional story, very inspiring..! I think that less then 5% will ever achieve only 60% of your story
Now my question:
- How did you start at the pokertables? Did you read books? Or did you got training or.. How and where did you learn the math, strats and so on..
-And when you did beat the 2NL, and moved up, I suppose you know all the math so what extra did you do?
Why am I asking this: I'm starting again in poker and I'm trying to find out the decent basics. It goes fine now at the 2NL tables with always profit at the end of the sessions, but learning from your own mistakes is difficult because you sometimes don't know it is a mistake.
And how do you know that there are still things you dont know and should know?
Thanks!
