Default A 4k swing!

[quote=Talking Poker]I recently read that 85% of players are losers, but very few think they are. The article (in Card Player) said the average player is a $2000 per year loser, but thinks he is about a $2000 per year winner. Most losing players don't keep records, so they don't know for sure. I find this very interesting...

Could that be? That's $4k swing! With average HHI at 42k (), the difference between being up or down 2k would be tremendous. As Iggy would say, oh the humanity.

I keep records to the penny about my online play, because it is so easy to do. I'm more casual about my b&m, but this thread provides the kick in the ass I need to get more vigilant.

If you are going to play $5 + $1 sit-n-go on Party, you might as well play $10 + $1 instead. 10% rake vs. 20%. Also, sit-n-gos do not count towards bonuses on PP. The only bonuses I am aware of is those that require a certain number of raked hands.

I'd say some would truly believe it. Never underestimate the power of denial.
