I think it depends somewhat on the day and the rub of the green but generally, I think you are right, yes.

When I started playing on Replay, there was this French lad, I can't remember his name and I wouldn't publicise it here  even if I could remember. We served our apprenticeship together as rookies, played a lot of poker together and this guy was good. Almost always made the final table. Sometimes he had very few chips but he was there with a chip and a chair. And I kept observing him over our month as rookies and beyond and I was very impressed with his patience. And I tested him, I tested his patience over the rookie period, tested how straight he was, how strong he was, how far I could push him, what I could get away with, and I grew respect for him as a player. I respected his mentality and his patience and the fact that nearly every fricking time we'd be there at the final table.

I went looking for him a few months ago. He'd worked his way up the rankings, I found his page. Where you type a bit about yourself he'd gone on a diatribe and had sadly, obviously totally lost his mind. He was accusing the site of being rigged, the cards being rigged, he was full of anger at some of the other players. I found it really sad that this bastion of patience and calm sensible straight play had popped a fuse somewhere. Man, I had thought he was as solid as a rock.

I really hope he's OK, whatever he's doing now.
