i really like the casino analogy he uses here. it really seems to be the case in many of the low limit games that the other players are lucky when they beat you because you have such a significant edge.
i dont necessarily agree with him about hi sconclusions though. i know he may feel that his play has stagnated, or that it has never really gotten off the ground, but that is pretty muchirrelevant to me. do I win money? that is the only question that i really worry about.
of course, this isnt completely the case. when i win a huge pot with a suckout, i generally dont feel so good about my play, and i try to make changes accordingly. but maybe his is what makes me better than my opponents. i, along with most of the other players on this board, consciously think about my play and make efforts to improve it.
grinding away at low limits isnt exactly exciting, but that isnt he reason i play the game. i play to make money, and right now the low limits are the best place for me to do that. i dont want to let my game stagnate at all, but it would be much worse if my bankroll was stagnating instead.
