[...] That about wraps it up, except for a link to one post I made about a poker blogger’s post here: The Ultimate Secret to Making Money with Affiliate Programs. It’s the best thing I wrote all year, and the post that inspired it, The Ultimate Secret to Winning Poker, was the single best thing I read all year. (My post was actually good enough to get linked to from Aaron’s SEO blog, which made my entire year.) [...]

ABC - always be closing..

In chess, unlike poker, you do need to read more than one book. However, the same basic truth holds, you don’t need to read thousand books to become a good chess player.

There are many patzers (ie fish) who read book after book and never reach master level.

Bill, long time reader, first time commenter. Mostly I subscribe to your feed get a good laugh (e.g. dealing from the bottom of the deck). This post, however, has been added to my favorites, and one of the better strategy posts of the year.

Well said Bill. I’m sorta thankful for that very fact that no matter how many books are written, and regardless of how much poker people watch on TV, people avoid hardwork, and will never be skilled players for that very reason. Great post. Not only for the truth of it, but because it’s something many people have thought about I’m sure, but never could articulate (as Iggy stated.) I bet the pokerbook publishing companies would rather this little truth be completely unknown and unsaid.

What’s the saying, ninety percent of life is just showing up? You gotta do the work. Reading can give you the toolbox, or the inspiration, but it can’t replace developing a callous on your fanny from sitting down and DOING THE WORK.

Naw my bad for not seeing where the quote ended and your post began.

Love me still?
