was just checking up on something on twodimes.net,and their quote of the day is this
"Think of how stupid the median poker player is. By definition, half of them are dumber than that."

do i misunderstand the word median or is this not true at all?

That doesnt make sense to me becuase them refers to the median player. How can the median player deviate from the median?

More than half of the poker players are probably worse than the median player, but the whole statement is airy fairy.

now who's having a bad nite...lol

ul mate, I got 4k earlier for the poker mill qualifier, so not a waste of a night, playing the stars qualifier now for WSOP and might play the 200k game on stars.

Just the Betfair $50k and FTOPS #3 ($300 NL) for me.

Early bath in the Betfair tourney when I took on a 50-50 for a 13k pot when average was still just 5,200. limped Js9s, then CRed AsTx8s flop, Mr AT put me in and I predictably missed my outs.

KOed from the FTOPS tourney after just 35 minutes, due to these 2 hands...

grrr. Stuck on 13000 in the million. Usual story, 20000 at the first break and card dead since. cannot find any spots. Still on starting stack at the 1st break in FTOPS. Unreal tight table.

Just busted from FTOPs in 870. Tried to get a guy to lay down top pair on the turn, with a dangerous board. He almost timed out but called. Had a decent stack too, above average and plenty play, bit silly really.

Mill is on break i'm 239 out of 506.103000 avg is 117000. Blnds 3000/6000 after the restart

473/slight. Need a hand. Fast

58o

cant get my chips in first. Got no FE over most of these stacks so cannot resteal

Edit. Gone in 323rd ,Bigstack raises my BB (i've only 11 left). I tank it with K 6 as theres a fairly good chance i'm ahead (lol), he is VERY active.His A 10 is good.I def need to work on my patience, i could have given it one more orbit. I know he's not going to fold but blinds are about to go up and i needed a double up. oh well.

The hand (feel free to rip it to pieces). Pretty dumb
