I don't have any idea how I will rate myself as a poker player. Maybe 3 in no limit holdem or maybe 2. I'm still a beginner though. Catch my site and see some great poker player views.

But the point is that your rank is not as relative as you think. Being the best football player in your school doesn't mean that you're even in the top 50% in your state or the top 80% in the nation. It's easy to think we're good but the question is; compared to what? If you want to be a level 10 player then just go play .50/$1 the rest of your life. Easy! You're a 10 compared to them. If you want to be a level 7 player against all poker players then one would need to compare themselves to Chip Reese. Just for perspective, in Barry G's new book he states that $20/$40 and below is low limit poker. :-) How often are you playing against Chip Reese???

I'm not as good as I think I am, and at the same time, I know I'm better than my play would indicate. I suspect lots of players are in the same spot. Does the rating allow for negative numbers?
