Hi all, my first post and I trying to make something clear here..
I didn't play for 10 years. In 2010-ish poker was a "cool" game and everyone seemed to just be having a lot of fun. I came back now to discover that things are just totally different
Has Poker become a boring, mathy activity for nerds sitting in front of 6 screens with 15 different software open running GTO simulations? By nerds I don't mean it in a derrogative form, I am a nerdy person myself It just seems to me that Poker has definitely shifted towards the number-crunching activity and the only way one can enjoy poker going forward, is to be someone who likes working with numbers exclusively (which I absolutely don't)
I don't refer to AI and GT taking over (which again, they are), I mean the overall direction poker has taken.
It seems to me I should have started playing in 2005 to retire now
Any thoughs on this?
