Wisdom

The more I play poker the more I realize it is all about luck and has really nothing to do with skill. Take last night. I figure I will grind out a little change in LHE. So I am playing good at a 6-max table. I get things like Aces cracked by T6 and AJ going down to TJ. Preflop raises are of course ignored. So I start getting a little pissed off. I decided to play like the retarded with my last few bucks. So I am four betting 89o, I am capping with air, I am fucking playing as retarded as possible. You know what happened? I fucking kicked ass. I take 78o up against Aces capped pre-, few bets on the flop when I hit my 7, I river a seven to take a big pot. I call gutters all over the place. My percentage rate of hitting gutters is extremely high so this may not be bad play. I start hitting them. The table starts steaming. Every hand gets 4-bet and called 4 ways. My hammer cracks a huge pot. River after river pays me off. The rush continues and I take down sixty BB before my rampage is over. So why the hell would anyone use this "skill" thing when retarded works the best.

I cannot remember you ever playing in a non-retarded manner.

Are you sure this test is conclusive?

I spent 10,000,000,000 nanoseconds coming up with this theory.
