2009 in Review

Depends on your definition of "plenty" but I doubt there are too many dudes playing 12 tables of 5/10 LHE and winning 2BB/100. Good ass players at that level are probably only winning .5-1BB/100 nowadays.

Also: I'm speaking from experience when I compare online to live play. Online $1/$2 FR LHE, it's usually 2 to a flop. In live games, I'm 3-betting J10s on the button for value when UTG raises and the field cold calls. You NEVER see that online in any LHE game. Raise UTG with AK and have 2 cold-callers and the blinds come along so it's 5 handed. Cold callers have J6o and K2s. Blinds are playing anything. The difference is staggering, it really is. I go to my local card room and in 350 hours I was by far the best player for 348 of them. The other 2 I was really drunk and was still the best but the margin was slimmer.
