Yup I said it, and for most people this is true. I can't tell you how many people I have tried to help with this game. Or how many people have said that they want to learn how to be better at this game. But then they just don't want to do the hard work away from the table to improve.

I have had at least 8 study partners in the past year. None of them have lasted more then 4-5 weeks before they fall off of the face of the earth. I understand that most of them have had jobs/family that interfere with a solid study schedule. And by all means there is more to life then poker ( I guess).

But the bottom line is most players just want to sit at a table and win. they watch a video and then try to emulate what they see, and never understand why it doesn't work for them. Well here is the cold hard unbiased truth.

YOUR F*CKING LAZY!!!

Of course if your one of the rare players that actually does work hard away from the table then I commend you, and this post is not directed towards you. This post is however directed at all the study partners that i have had over the past year that are still playing 10nl complaining that online poker is rigger and the game cant be beat.

I am pretty much convinced that my search for a competent hard working study partner is on par with Jerry Yang being considered a good poker player. Its just not going to happen.

Or maybe my work ethic is so high that no one can live up to my expectations LOL. So be it.

The reason for this rant is that I have just burned thru another study partner, who came up with 5 reasons why he couldn't manage to get together at the scheduled time. TBH I think he has just been beaten up by the game and gave up. The real truth is that he kept making the same mistakes over and over and was to hard headed to think outside of his cardboard box.

So for now, /rant off.

I will continue to go thru my daily study routine solo once again in hopes that someday I will find someone out there that isn't afraid to work hard and improve.
