we're not talking about the differences between the online nosebleeds and the live high stakes poker pros
we're talking about people who don't think about anything but their own hand
holy shit, I was in vegas playing for 8 hours with the same guy and ran TERRIBLE in terms of getting decent starting hands
but I got jacks and kings and aces a few times and flopped sets with them
so the only hands I've shown down were TOP SETS
and that same guy brags to the entire table that I play only jacks+ and nothing else
then proceeds to call me down the next hand
but it's ok because I turned a pair and rivered two pair
but holy shit
