If that isn't what your friends want, forget about what you want. Sounds like they just want to play for fun.Originally Posted by Chopper

My goals ? Purely a hobby, so I am happy if I make enough to cover golf club membership, football season ticket and decent contribution towards family summer vacation. This is more than enough justification for my wife. |

thats awesome.....another "hobbyist." dont let these guys (not the LHE guys, the general FTR population) tell you that you have to act like a pro....you have to move up levels....you have to study your ass off....you have to manage your roll like its your rent money....etc...etc...etc. if you let them, they will try and tell you all that stuff. (wow! how am i on this soapbox again?) | |

HOLY SHIT!!! i finally found the sweet spot in the home game. 8-10 players. if we have less, they want carni-games. if we have more, they want 2 tables....for carni-games. i refused to play 7-nopeek, because i dont want friends long term, i guess, and because i hate those games. JJ to open/trips to win is also gay, imo. but, whatever. | |

LoL, Chop, you won't lose friends, you'll just lose your invite to the weekly game. They'll start holding it somewhere else and "forget" to tell you where and when. |

as for the home games, i am beginning to realize that they just dont care. the "how do you NOT play 72 just for the chance to win" type of comments flow like wine in this game. and, dont get me wrong, i dont mind beating them that badly, and i'm glad to hear they probably wont notice, i just get a little paranoid because the "edge" is so super obvious to me that i cant imagine they cant see it. sort of "the view from up here" kind of thing. | |

most of what you say is absolutely spot on. and, it should get a great response from all the ICM/math geeks. but, i will tell you a couple of other (non-standard) things that will also add to your ROI. | |

I consider myself mostly a "math" player, but even I know ICM has some major limitations. The guys who blindly go by what ICM says are missing the boat quite often IMO. | |

here is a DON-based post that sums up how i feel about these, and where some people, like my friend, are going wrong/getting into trouble. i thank 6maxNL, 6maxLHE, and "endgame" practice for this. the fact that i have bounced around from different game to different game, imo, has made me a better-rounded player.....not a great one....but better-rounded. | |

played my first hands in over 3 days! by far my longest break in months, maybe 18 months. however, i only play micro sessions these days, not the marathons i used to play when playing NL. | |
