thunder,

you sound intimidated without ever playing a hand...all full of assumptions. you shouldnt be. if you play abc, let the crazies/nonserious spend their way right out.

now, taking the batters box against randy johnson, with my skill level, would be intimidating. poker for $5 is not, so long as you have the bankroll.

thats why i started this thread. i'm trying to debunk all those ASSUMPTIONS by people who havent even tried.
