I’m sick of these Amateurs! I hope *insert pro player’s name
here* wipes the floor with him!
That seems to be a common refrain in poker forums recently, in
light of all the success the amateurs are enjoying. We ran a
poll on my web site asking members to predict “Who will win WSOP
2004?” I think “a professional” beat “an amateur” by at least a
2:1 margin, and about 90% gave Chris Moneymaker hardly a
snowball’s chance at even making the final few tables.
So why the angst? Is it because of the World Poker Tour coverage
on the Travel Channel where so many of the new players today saw
and became infatuated with names like Phil Ivey and Howard
Lederer and just can’t stand watching their “horse” lose?
Lets consider the differences between the typical amateur and
professional poker player at one of these expensive televised
tournaments. First, the amateur holds a regular job, albeit
generally well paying. Remember “the Dentist” in World Poker
Tour coverage? We probably won’t be seeing “The Plumber” or “The
Garbage Man” dropping several thousand dollars on a poker
tournament in the near future. The professional on the other
hand considers poker his full time job.
The second difference between the amateur and professional
is…is…hmm. What is the second difference? Is there another
difference?
The professional players have excellent poker skills, starting
hand selection, flop play, reading the other players, knowing
when to bluff, when to call, when to get out of the way. But
then again, so do the amateurs we see at the final table.
Of course there is “dead money” at these tournaments, but can
anyone make a legitimate argument that all because someone fixes
teeth during the day that he or she is a lesser poker player at
night?
I’ll be the first to admit that I prefer to see a “name” or two
at the final table, but I also know that it is nigh impossible
to make it to the final table of one of these things on sheer
luck.
Time to give the amateurs some credit?
