Yeah sorta. Hell I dunno.

If you have all these 3 things you should be able to make money at poker as long as making money is your primary goal.

eg.

I suck, have been playing for 1 week. I grind 2NL profitably.

As opposed to: I rule, one day I will win the WSOP Main Event, I am too good for bankroll management. I would win a ton but these suckers keep drawing out on me, calling all the time, how the f@#< am I going to get them off their hands? I think online poker is rigged but I'm def a winning player.

I think as long as you have the right mindset winning at poker is easy.
