I think I've really convinced myself that I'm a lot better than I think I am. I am barely a winner at the lowest games. I might be a big winner without rake, but we don't live in that world now, do we. I'm irrationally confident that I'll make it in this game. I'm probably wrong, and when I am proven to be wrong, I guess it'll be the gods' or God's punishment for the hubris. I wish I believed or know what I just wrote in the last few sentences. I chuckle as I write/reread this post. I'm going to make it, I don't need reasons or evidence to know that's a fact. Faith, sometimes you just have to go with it. Hmmmm, faith is such a powerful noun.
