Even Gus Hansen and isildur took a while to blow their whole rolls
If someone could always win at poker you would see them on the Forbes 400
The richest poker players made money from sponsorships, not playing poker
Says it all

Bingo.
And like I said, even if gman blew his entire roll, there would be a line of people waiting to hand him their money to keep playing.

Sponsor money is variance free.

No
Its a game of chance
Its a completely random dealing of the cards
Someone could hypothetically get quads a hundred times in a row or only be dealt 3 high a hundred times in a row

Yes, there’s variance involved in the short term, but to deduce poker to a “game of chance” is a bad take. The best poker players in the world (for the most part) practice bankroll management that doesn’t allow them to lose their whole bankroll when they’re on a downswing. There are also thousands of people that make enough money to not have to work outside of poker. Amazing that it’s only a game of chance.

I don't play - so she beat him with Jack High ?

Then when everyone at the table was like wtf is going on she gave a nonsensical explanation on why she called. Then came back 30 minutes later and changed her story which caused the person that lost to believe he was cheated

I quit trying to explain the difference in poker compared to other gambling games years ago. It's all luck to most people. And that's fine. I like playing against those people.

You still havent explained how you have made infinite amounts of money with your foolproof plan of bilking morons out of money playing poker

I mean honestly, it’s the most likely explanation right?

The actual math, some articles have it wrong:

That team decides to go for it on 4th down in that exact situation. Could they end up getting the first down? Sure. It doesn't make it completely reckless and stupid.
I’ll dumb it down even further for you poker expert. Is the team going for it on 4th down in that situation cheating?

Winning infinite amounts of money don’t make you qualified to speak on the situation. I’m an above average poker player, but that’s merely bc the average “poker player” is awful. I am, however, sharp enough to know if a guy like you were to sit at the poker table, you just asoon throw your money on the floor. The beauty of the game is you might win sometimes, but over the long haul, you’d be lighting money on fire.

He'd run hot and get lucky and then lecture the table in why he's so good.

Yea, that’s because hustler’s live stream accounts for the cards already folded. If she knew his hand only, she’d be a slight favorite.
