Steven: No.
You have a point, with control over the situation, but it is a dangerouse game! Poker is too much psykologi for my liking, and you have rich morons who dont value money.. Makes not fun, at least what I think. Playing tight is not fun.
Are you kidding that is the best. I love rich morons. Give me more sir.
When playing heads up it is all about your aggression factor.
In heads up I am very aggressive which is why I win.
In a high stakes cash game stealing the blinds goes a long way and it is easy to do if you know how to be aggressive.
Its funny you said this:
"This Q/2 off suit will make me win. Come one vs Pocket AA"
Because today when I was in that big heads up game, earlier on during a very wet board I called his nice sized bets to the river with nothing but Queen high and took it down.
If I am correct he was representing aces.
I had his number down. Put him on tilt super bad.
And Inca. Poker is a skill game.
To everyone else yes there is variance in poker. But above all else poker is a mind game.
This quote no longer holds true as you have 7000 players in the wsop main event every year, but until 2003 this proved my point:
"Mike McDermott: Why do you think the same five guys make it to the final table of the World Series of Poker EVERY YEAR? What, are they the luckiest guys in Las Vegas?"
