When it comes to bad poker players a lot of the time i can handle the bad plays and misunderstandings because i know that in the long run i should come out in front, theoretically that is...
The main reason i get upset is when the muppet assumes because they have been playing for a few years and believe they know what they are doing, that they are so much better than everyone else... and far be it for anyone to criticize their playing abilities with mathematics or proven strategies...
These players really get under my skin, they look at me as if I'm an idiot when i release an exasperated sigh after being rivered to a 6 outer... then they assume I'm the muppet for not realizing the old faithful river would pull them out of their predicament...
I do realize as you probably have if you are reading this that there is a glaring contradiction to the points i raise... this being that if muppets are so terrible at poker why am i forever whinging about being beaten by them? this is in fact a good point that i have been pondering over for quite a while now... it is the sole reason that i still play micro stakes or free poker... i believe that if i can't beat the players who lack a basic understanding of fundamental concepts how am i meant to beat the players who not only understand it but can use it to beat me, i wouldn't stand a chance...
So i have come to the conclusion that i am not going to move up in limits until i am winning on a regular basis, until that time i am going to continue to study and play my heart out... hopefully with time i will be able to best the amateurs and become more than a lowly amateur myself
