You know, it's a different mindset required.
Like a lot of these young guys, they're accustomed to 20 tables at a time.
It's much more robotic, right?
So if you're playing 20 tables, you're just making decisions based on like what you, you know, you're not thinking about the depth of the situation and what just happened 15 minutes ago.
You don't even know what happened because you can't pay attention to all that at once.
especially that event the world series poker main event historically like that's it you know that's the pinnacle that's where like mainstream watches that's where people are tuning in and the gravity of the moment you know it's so much bigger than people like everyone gets the opportunity to play armchair quarterback too right oh he should do this you're not there you're not under the lights you're not under the pressure you know it might seem easy for you at home to be like well they have because you can see the whole cards you know they can't certainly the idea of
The small sample with tournaments.
I like the idea that you don't have to worry about, oh, well, if I do this now, then in the future, you know, I won't be balanced.
I have to be balanced here or anything like that.
That's like really boring and lame, right?
Again, that is kind of the way the younger generation learns how to play the game, being balanced in every spot.
Um, and then randomizing, you know, like, oh, I'm supposed to do this 50% of the time.
So if my left card is red, I'll do it.
And if it's black, I don't.
So you're not even making, you're no longer making actual decisions for yourself.
You're just randomizing.
And that's way less fun for me than tailoring it to the situation.
Well, you shouldn't be, but there are.
