Grinding

I bumped into a friend on the weekend, he is an old gaming friend and I asked him if he was now an online poker player.  I was surprised by the answer because he said no, he had tried it and given up, then went back to his computer gaming.

So I asked why?  Too slow was the answer.  So I said, why not try multi-tabling?  But he was adamant, online poker just didn’t do it for him and as for real life poker tournaments – they were dullness in the extreme.

Oh well, you cant please them all – different strokes for different folks!  What some people just dont get is the grinding it out, especially at poker tourneys, you have to grind it out and be extremely patient.  And, grinding is not for everyone, some just dont have the patience to wear out their opponents, they want quick results and action.

But those poker players that do learn how to master grinding will be sure to win some big prizes because it is the key to poker tournaments and winning at online poker.

    For me that was the hardest thing about a live tourney… sitting for hours having to concentrate. Very slow..
