Well, he said he would be back and wasn't withdrawing.
I think it's worth mentioning that it can be dangerous to have expectations. We just don't know what the road looks like ahead. Also, patience is a very key part of poker in both the short term and the long term. We have to have the patience to get the cards, hit the flops, and win the pots. We need patience for the EV moves to work out both when we're on a downswing AND when we're on a heater. In our best and darkest moments, We're never as good as we think we are or bad as we think we are. We need patience to FAIL so that we can learn from our failures and then take what we've learned to be successful. One of the scariest but also most exciting parts of moving up a stake for me personally is KNOWING I will donk off money to competent regulars due to getting outplayed or trying new plays on my own and that I can't learn those lessons until I fail. I literally have to pay for the lesson. But, it's very rewarding to come out like roses on the other side because you paid the price, put in the time, and made the adjustments.
