Basically, I enjoy playing high stakes poker or any kind of poker where I play with people I have played a lot before, cause I have long history with them and I have my piece of mind there."
But his wiki page says he was mentored. Whatever, he's obviously my new hero.
This quote from High Stakes Poker was wild. It blew my mind. I'm doing all this work and here, Antonius, didn't do a damn thing (of course besides practicing). It's rather interesting. Does this mean PokerStove, HEM, and studying is overrated as compared to practice, practice, practice? Who knows? But maybe I'll start something in the BC and see what everyone else thinks. Nice post.
By the way...your avatar is beautiful. Who is that?
