Title: How Good Are You? Post by: jezza777 on October 22, 2005, 12:38:39 AM How does everyone judge how good they are? I know that the money is how we keep score but in tournament poker it can be a long time between meals and you can make all the right decisions and still go hungary.
I'm just curious as to peoples views Title: Re: How Good Are You? Post by: Ironside on October 22, 2005, 12:39:39 AM i am between beginner and novice

Title: Re: How Good Are You? Post by: TightEnd on October 22, 2005, 12:43:49 AM I'm ok tournament wise, but I'm getting tot hink I might be a better cash player
My tourney results come along just often enough that when I really think I am crap, it sustains me into losing more money for a while! Title: Re: How Good Are You? Post by: Heid on October 22, 2005, 12:45:15 AM I'm rubbish to mediocre, with flashes of ok when I really concentrate.
Title: Re: How Good Are You? Post by: tikay on October 22, 2005, 12:46:44 AM I aspire to be crap, mediocrity is aiming a bit high though. Or, to be a little more serious, in answer to jezza's question, it sorta depends what criteria you set. I play Poker to enjoy myself - & on that basis, I'm the dogs whatsits, nobody enjoys it more. I am THE DADDY. Title: Re: How Good Are You? Post by: M POWER on October 22, 2005, 12:57:19 AM Tikay
There is no need to aspire to be crap Regards M Title: Re: How Good Are You? Post by: tikay on October 22, 2005, 01:01:04 AM :redcard: :redcard: :redcard:
Title: Re: How Good Are You? Post by: snoopy1239 on October 22, 2005, 01:05:10 AM I'm a 6.
I used to think I was 9. Then I decided I was an 8. After several more months I concluded that I was a 7. Now I've opted for 6. I'm not getting worse, but my perceptions of my own game are changing as I learn. Title: Re: How Good Are You? Post by: ACE2M on October 22, 2005, 02:38:26 AM i am constantly poor but have streaks of brilliance which keeps me in a decent profit. if only i could concentrate all the time.
Title: Re: How Good Are You? Post by: RFC on October 22, 2005, 02:40:06 AM i only play really cheap games

Post by: jammer on October 22, 2005, 03:20:08 AM on my current form....
-1 >:( Title: Re: How Good Are You? Post by: bundle on October 23, 2005, 08:45:54 AM SO SO.... It all boils down to my mood, I was just working out of town for a week, I could see the horseshoe casino from my motel, so of course had to go play, I was feeling really good about being there and ended up playing really well, and seemed to be getting great reads on the others, so it was a great time. however my problem is the mood i might be in, I find if im questioning myself about anything before i go, then it's not going to be a good night for me.
I rate myself 7 at my very best.. 4 at my more timid moments Title: Re: How Good Are You? Post by: ifm on October 23, 2005, 12:26:13 PM Bundle!!!
Boy have i missed that running nurse!! Title: Re: How Good Are You? Post by: RED-DOG on October 23, 2005, 12:43:58 PM 7 My reply isn't a measure of how good I think I am, it's my family's stock reply to all those questions that people, (especially reporters on TV) ask that have no real answer, ie "How sad were you when your dog died?" "How happy did you feel when you scored the winning goal?" When we hear one of these questions we all shout "Seven!!" Title: Re: How Good Are You? Post by: Teacake on October 23, 2005, 01:11:55 PM Im not sure how good I am, but I wouldn't like to play me ;D

Title: Re: How Good Are You? Post by: NoflopsHomer on October 23, 2005, 02:37:21 PM I'm good enough to make the occasional re-raise with 10,4off to scare Matey off his chips, though I'm not good enough to have realised that Matey had been raising with aces all along.
Title: Re: How Good Are You? Post by: doubleup on October 23, 2005, 02:46:20 PM I just tried to bluff quads - need I say more

If you read this mate can you repost please? I thought it was very relevant. Cheers. Title: Re: How Good Are You? Post by: Maroon on October 26, 2005, 11:10:14 PM lol Welcome back Lee Cheers Robert.
