    Why Poker Fukkin Sucks.
    40 people left, I am like 7th in chips on Heritage. Top 30 get paid. Long story short, guy calls preflop raises with shithead hands and hits a gut shot straight, then the very next hand same guy busts me with running diamonds.

    Poker is not profitable because I have learned that no matter the stakes, people are gonna play like idiot penetrates and get paid.

    Hold'em is a shitheads game. All luck. Thank you DOJ for fukkin us all out of Poker Stars and real sites that offer games other than hold em and omaha.

    I only play on these sites when I don't have anything to do. I am a writer by profession, so my days are pretty full but late night I get bored and tend to play poker, slots, etc.

    I am good at betting on sports, but the problem is all that other petty shit gets in the way.

    Poker is a game that you play for hours and hours and if you're good player you earned one dollar per hour

      Nothing worse in the world than running bad at poker.

      I'm currently in the midst of it, too.

                      Typically Content Writing, but I can do a lot of things. I am a good researcher, so Content Writing is best for me.

                        if you really just wanted to cash. say top 20 you should have resisted the temptation to play any hands at all. you never know when a hand comes your way and all the sudden you are all-in........sit on your chips next time

                          I am superstitious that if I fold the hands I should be playing, my luck will get really bad.

                                    but to reply to the thread topic...

                                    Poker used to be free $, now the average player is pretty good...

                                    Especially in hold'em,

                                    There are 2 ways to make $ in poker nowadays...

                                    1: Host a game,

                                    2: House games

                                    You're wasting your time otherwise...

                                      Absolutely.
                                      You play your hands just as.you ways would. If you suffer bad beats, you gotta be able to take them. It happens

                                        I hear a lot about ghosts. But I'm still green and can't figure out what ghost belongs to who haha.

                                                I am good at betting on sports, but the problem is all that other petty shit gets in the way.
                                                How good? What's your average Win/Loss percentage against -110?

                                                      Hang around some players who aren't degenerate gamblers and you'll find most of them aren't flat broke

I fold ak suited early position even with no raise. Spent too much time to not cash from someone cooling me or outdrawing.
